In October 2025, the UK's first major Chinese espionage trial collapsed in spectacular fashion when prosecutors offered no evidence against two men accused of spying for Beijing.
The reason? The government refused to call China a "threat" to national security—a legal requirement under the century-old Official Secrets Act.
