💨 Abstract

The UK is debating whether to allow China to construct a new 'super embassy' near critical communication cables in Tower Hamlets. MI5 and the Metropolitan Police have voiced concerns about the building's proximity to communication cables and potential for attracting protests, respectively. Residents, heritage site preservationists, and Tower Hamlets Council have also raised objections due to potential harm to surrounding areas and heritage sites.
