Read Mr Reece's article for the Telegraph here.
I have not read why Dyson lost the case and whether Dyson registered its design rights or not (UK has also unregistered design rights, since 1989, just like throughout the European Community since 2002). Many Chinese infringing companies have the ambition to be a player on the world market, therefore they can not only be sued in China but oftentimes at a court in one of the markets they are exporting to.

There's a report on the website of Vax's patent attorneys http://www.forresters.co.uk/news/085vax.htm, and I have posted a piece on my IP blog www.ipsojure.co.uk giving a little more details - but the judgment is not yet available, so we cannot be sure of much. Incidentally, the UK has had design registration since at least 1839.
Hi Peter,
Great, thank you!
Cheers,
Danny
