 Thanks for the history lesson but I think everyone is aware of China's "one child policy"... 
But you're equating their previous policies of population control to their treatment of a group of people that they are already keeping in concentration camps and thinking it's just "part of the same plan".
Do you realise how dangerous that is? What they're doing is not simply "population control", it's ethnic cleansing.
As to your other point about the most vocal people/countries denouncing China regarding the Uighurs... Did you read about Trump telling Xi that he thought that he was doing the right thing by putting them in concentration camps? Pompeo can pretend that he cares as much as he wants because everyone knows that the US won't do anything to stop China.

So forced sterilisation and abortions targeted specifically at an ethnic and religious minority is just part of a general policy of population control? Wow!

 I have , I think Amnesty are right ,  the slight difference though our country has moved on , and the human right issues it lists for China are of the current age and now.

 Indeed and im sure the links to Israel, USA and Saudi will always see us vulnerable, however the attacks on it's own people , no liberty , restrictions, false imprisonment, abuse of women ,persecution of gays in  countries like Syria,Iran,Russia,North Korea, China , Venezuela, Saudi,Yemen ,Myanmar to name a few are horrendous and do not compare .
I find there is a certain blindness that goes on in life when it comes to who folk want to call to account driven by ones political view.

 They do compare, you could be talking about the UK (parts of it) until very recently.
Single sex marriage was illegal until January, abortion illegal until March, collusion, internment, shoot to kill, even human rights lawyers were getting bumped off (Amnesty big on that), torture (we were throwing people out of helicopters with hoods on, Amnesty was writing about that one this year).
It might be a bit rich us talking about standards.
