Watch live from the House of Commons, as Sir Keir Starmer is set to face furious MPs at midday after his government approved a deal to allow the construction of a controversial Chinese embassy in the heart of London. Despite massive opposition and safety concerns, the government approved the deal just one week before Sir Keir heads to Beijing.

Protestors slammed the move yesterday, with Chloe Cheung, an exiled Hong Konger, telling the Express the move "clearly shows that the Government has prioritised trade deals and their relationship with China on top of the safety of UK residents".

She added: "It is unacceptable, given how China has treated the people of Britain, including putting bounties on UK activists’ heads, on sanctioning British MPs, stealing Britain’s intellectual property, and dominating the supply chain with their cheap slave labour in China."

Tory leader Kemi Badenoch could also take aim at Sir Keir’s Chagos deal – following intervention by Donald Trump.
