LONDON -- British politicians took the government to task on Monday, calling for it to officially designate China a "threat" after it emerged that a parliamentary researcher was arrested in March on suspicion of spying for China.
"Are they a threat or are they not? If they are a threat, why do we not call them a threat and take the relative action that is necessary to deal with them on that basis and sanction some people," demanded Iain Duncan Smith, a member of Parliament sanctioned by Beijing over his outspoken stance on China's treatment of Uyghurs.
