Protest Against Proposed Chinese ‘Mega Embassy’ Held In London
Leader of the Conservative Party Kemi Badenoch joins activists rallying against plans for a Chinese "Mega Embassy," thought likely to be approved by the British government next week, outside the site of the proposed 20,000 square meter development at Royal Mint Court in London, England, on January 17, 2026. Opponents argue that the proposed complex, on a site close to the City of London financial district and beside critical underground data cables, is used as a base for espionage and surveillance, and poses a heightened risk to Chinese dissidents in exile in the UK.
