White House issues stark warning to Britain amid China spy scandal

"The White House has warned Sir Keir Starmer that Britain’s failure to prosecute two suspected Chinese spies risks damaging the special relationship and could jeopardize intelligence sharing between London and Washington.
US President Donald Trump is said to be increasingly concerned about Britain’s reliability after charges were dropped against two Britons accused of spying for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
Ex-parliamentary assistant Chris Cash, 30, and academic Christopher Berry, 33, had charges of alleged espionage dropped last month after Whitehall refused to provide evidence to the Crown Prosecution Service that indicated China is a "threat to national security".
A senior White House aide said that the US has been "warning allies about the Chinese threat to our combined national security since President Trump first came into office in 2017". GBN
