Construction of a new Chinese super embassy in London can go ahead after a High Court challenge against a decision to grant planning permission was dismissed. The Royal Mint Court Residents’ Association (RMCRA) brought legal action against the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It said the presence of the embassy, with a site earmarked near the Tower of London, could lead to terrorist attacks or the repression of protests, while being used to enforce “draconian” Chinese laws in the UK and to target dissidents. Speaking with security and intelligence expert Professor Anthony Glees, Talk's Alex Phillips says: "They can earwig on whatever's going on in the City of London and do Lord knows what else." #china #superembassy #alexphillips #talk Have you got a story?
