Well informed, as usual. The first item that popped up on my radar was the situation between Britain and China .. as per my ai:

As of January 21, 2026, the status of the Chinese Embassy in London has reached a major turning point:
1. Approval of New "Mega-Embassy"

On January 20, 2026, the British government officially granted planning permission for China to build a new, massive embassy complex at Royal Mint Court near the Tower of London.

Scale: At 20,000 square meters, it is set to be the largest embassy in Europe.

Consolidation: The new site will allow China to consolidate its current seven separate London locations into a single, high-security mission.

Security Verdict: Despite intense political debate over potential espionage risks—particularly its proximity to sensitive financial fibre-optic cables—the government stated that intelligence agencies (MI5 and GCHQ) were "integral" to the process and that risks are being appropriately managed.

Let's see Kid Starver packing his bags for the flight to Beijing .. hehehehehe (in the footsteps of Carney)
