UK to purge Huawei from 5G by 2027, angering China and pleasing Trump
Not entirely supprising consider the domestic political climate and the pressure from the US. A compromise or U-turn Boris has to make.
1. The incompetency exposed in handling the Covid-19 pandemic. The need to reform NHS and drastically improve the cooridination among the dept of Health, PHE and NHS.
2. Reform the civil service system advocated by Domminic Cummings. One sign is the resignation of the top civil servant Mark Sedwill.
3. BREXIT and trade deal with the US.
4. National security law in HK. Both HSBC and Standard Chartered succumb to the pressure from the mainland.
The decision is a retaliation for #4 and a tradeoff to the opposition within the Conservatives.
