Please dont be silent and raise your voice against this unfair trade

Where did you get the idea that Chinese sellers shouldn't be allowed to sell on ebay.co.uk? You can't make up rules because you don't like something. Chinese sellers are perfectly entitled to sell in the UK, whether that stock is dispatched from China or held in the UK.
Yes, they should be subject to applicable regulations, but ebay aren't going to ban sellers because you feel that they are unfair competition - ebay aren't going to ban them unless they do something particularly untoward.
If you felt that, perhaps, a particular account was misrepresenting the location of items offered for sales, then Trading Standards would be the place to go. If you have evidence that they aren't correctly registered for VAT, if holding stock in the UK, then contact HMRC. Ebay are in the business of making commission from sales made on their platform and aren't going to enforce anything which they aren't compelled to enforce.
