China super-embassy approval is Starmer’s biggest national security mistake yet

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to the approval of the controversial Chinese super-embassy, Liberal Democrat Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Calum Miller MP said:

“Building on a bad week for our national security, Starmer has made his biggest mistake yet.

"The Prime Minister knows his decision today will amplify China’s surveillance efforts here in the UK and endanger the security of our data - not to speak of the safety of the brave Hong Kongers on British soil. It’s categorically wrong that he’s embraced these threats to further his flirtation with China.

"This Government should be ashamed of its decision to allow the super-spy embassy to go ahead today.”
