Christine Jardine

Liberal Democrat — Edinburgh West

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 April 2025

Debate

Steel Industry (Special Measures) Bill

Contribution

Does the right hon. Member agree that there is a wider issue at stake: our energy security and national security? We have seen what can go wrong with a Chinese company that we do not trust, and we see Chinese influence increasing in other vital sectors, particularly our energy industry. Should that not underline our concern and act as a warning that we do not want the Chinese to have control of our energy supply?
