It's probably been longer than that 2014 at least. But I'm sure others will say the cold war never ended.
I've always wondered where is the fine invisible line that separates this sort of interference from that being an act of war.
I found them to be total rubbish in my area and was tied in for 12 months. But someone else in another area will find them brilliant. The only provider that I found having the best decent consistency was EE. But I refuse to go into a 12month+ contract with these new rip off mid term price increases.
There was a time that the UK government had China involved in the development of a new nuclear power station, Sizewell C. They corrected their mistake.
Next up is Taurus from Germany.
Nasty Party targets the poor and vulnerable again. It's a shame that they don't show the same efforts in going after the corporates avoiding tax.
There's a race to the bottom and the Nasty Party is right out in front.
Typical Tory strategy straight from their pander-to-the-right-wing-playbook.
Competition was always going to happen it was just a question of when and to what degree. The established car makers weren't going to sit around and watch Tesla take their market share.

Here in the UK the price of a delivered newspaper is as high as £3.40 midweek (The Financial Times).
Your typical weekly rag could set you back between £7.80 to £22 per week.
The last time I bought a newspaper was about 10 years ago and that was to light a fire! Yet I avoid pay wall as I do not feel I'm getting as much as a physical paper.
I suspect there should be a /s on the end there.
