Episode description
Adam Boulton and guests discuss the UK's delicate relations with China and Russia after the Huawei news and claims of Russian hacking.
The government's decision to remove Huawei technology from the 5G network by 2027 has added to tensions with China following the country's security crackdown in Hong Kong.
That as Russia is accused of interfering in last year's general election and trying to steal vaccine ideas from the UK, US and Canada.
They also discuss the clarity - or lack of it - over the wearing of face coverings in England.
Joining Adam this week are the author of “Why Borders Matter: Why Humanity Must Relearn the Art of Drawing Boundaries” Frank Furedi; the director of the British Foreign Policy Group, Sophia Gaston and Sky's political corespondent Joe Pike.
