I’ll take the risk. Thankyou

There is a easy way to stop this, block access by default by all ISPs to china IP. Create a new network for businesses who need need to communicate with the dragon

Eat it! Just ditch the menace!

British taxpayer will have an inferior system at a high multiple of the Huawei cost. Huzzah!

I read that it would cost 2 billion to remove all Huawei equipment from the network. This should be compensated by the Govt. Huawei is a massive security risk to the UK. It's not an independent company, it's a CCP state actor

BT that put our own domestic producer Marconi out of business by doing a sweetheart deal with Huawei? That BT? Huawei that has former BT Chairman Mike Rake as a non-exec’ Director on its UK Board? That Huawei? The British elite can be bought for pennies. Disgusting mercenaries.

I just love the pessimism of British management Elesewhere they get on with the job at hand, in the UK they moan and dither and ask for more money.

Why are we so over reliant on Huawei?

Huawei bought chunks of Siemens, Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola, hard to imagine how their JVs in building maintenance can be unraveled as well as their supplying tech to other telecomms companies

英国人为啥甘愿做美国的走狗?堂堂日不落混到这种地步?是非不分?没有主见?基本的独立思考能力也没有了么?

so they've already got some connection...

Then he better start buying some alternate technology at once

Not a very good boss if he's wedded to a single vendor..
