MP warns 'revolving door' between Chinese firms and officials creating 'Russia all over again'


AN SNP MP has warned that a “revolving door” between Government and Chinese firms risks creating a situation like “Russia all over again”.
Stewart McDonald was questioning Nigel Adams, foreign office minister for Asia, during a meeting of the Foreign Affairs committee yesterday, when he raised the issue of former senior government officials and Crown servants going to work for tech firm Huawei.
The MP for Glasgow South cited four examples of officials who have held senior government posts and now work for the technology firm or are advisors to it.
Huawei was banned from the UK’s 5G network in November last year over concerns about its cyber security, as well as fears that under Chinese law it could be compelled to “act in a way that is harmful to the UK”.
