China 'largest threat' to Britain; has targeted India: Rishi Sunak

London : China represents the “largest threat” to Britain and the world’s security and prosperity this century and there is evidence to suggest it has targeted countries from the US to India, UK Prime Ministerial candidate, Rishi Sunak (42), said on Monday.

Will close 30 Institutes

I will close all 30 China’s Confucius Institutes in the UK. China represents the largest threat to Britain and world’s security. I will build an international alliance to tackle Chinese cyberthreats and share the best practice in technology security. — Rishi Sunak, UK PM Candidate

Sunak vs Truss: UK PM race gets fierce

• Ahead of a key head-on televised debate between the two finalists — former Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Foreign Secretary Liz Truss — on Monday, the contest tone has been getting increasingly fierce

• Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries, a Johnson loyalist backing Truss in the race, took to Twitter to quote a report on Sunak’s £3,500 bespoke suit and Prada shoes —a jab at trying to paint him as distanced from the cost-of-living crisis facing the British public at large
• Truss will be travelling the country wearing earrings which cost circa £4.50 from Claire Accessories, said Dorries
• “Meanwhile…Rishi visits Teeside in Prada shoes worth £450 & sported £3,500 bespoke suit as he prepares for vote,” she said

The former Chancellor set out a series of plans he would undertake if elected the PM, including building a new NATO-style military alliance of “free nations” to defend against Chinese “technological aggression”.
