Summary
Senior Labour figures have called on the government to reassess Chinese investments in UK infrastructure following the British Steel crisis, expressing concerns that improving relations with Beijing could jeopardize national security. This plea came after the government took control of the Scunthorpe steel plant from its Chinese owners, Jingye, during a tumultuous weekend. Despite this situation, government officials maintained that the UK remains open to Chinese funding, emphasizing the ongoing commitment to foreign investment.
