Labour (Co-op) — Feltham and Heston

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 January 2026

Debate

Proposed Chinese Embassy

Contribution

In relation to the China, I will say again what I said earlier: China is the world’s second largest economy and the UK’s third largest trading partner, and not engaging with China is no choice at all. Through engagement, we can be strong on security and on the economy.
