#2The China-US tensions are not going to get better, and, in fact, will get worse as years go by. More and more nations will be forced to choose sides. It's not good and I'm not sure what a resolution even looks like.

My 'being honest with ourselves' view is we know whats going to happen and its going to suck.

#4The justification is that the equipment presents a national security risk.
If that's true, how is it reasonable to allow this equipment to operate in the UK for 7 more years? Doesn't that mean the UK is willingly under national security risk for 7 years?
Unless, of course, there was never a security risk...

Not dissimilar to how face masks are being made compulsory in shops by the British government.

#9This kind of thing is going to play out a lot over the next few years. It's a tough question: how to marry globalisation with the political realities. When China was very poor, it didn't really matter, or perhaps the assumption was that China would liberalise more quickly than it has. But China, while increasingly mature economically, has not developed proper civil society, human rights, freedom of expression, democracy, and so on. Let us hope they do so as quickly as possible, not least for the sake of the Chinese people themselves. And let us work to improve our example and unity too in countries where we do have these things, however imperfectly.

The alternative to Huawei in 5G is either Nokia or Ericsson.
As an European I don't what to think that the US seems so against kit from a Chinese company and completely fine with kit from an European company.
They should be worried about both. We also have a long term world domination plan (version 2.0)... ;)
