Starmer, spies and China’s threat to national security
from Sky News Daily · host james nelson
The prime minister’s been asked to ‘explain himself’ after the UK’s top prosecutor blamed the collapse of a China spy trial on the government - for not labelling China a risk to national security. But Sir Keir Starmer blames the previous Tory government. A parliamentary researcher and his associate were accused of passing on “politically sensitive” information to a member of China’s ruling politburo – so why won’t it go to court? Niall is joined by political correspondent Mhari Aurora and the former head of MI6 Richard Dearlove. Producers: Tom Gillespie & Emily Hulme Editor: Mike Bovill
