Ministers delay planning decision on Chinese ‘super-embassy’ in London | London
The ministers decided whether a Chinese “superbassi” in London will be given permission to plan a proposed Chinese “Super Embassi” due to concerns about the corrected drawings in the building’s plans.
Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner would decide on September 9, but pushed it back to 21 October and said there was a need for more time to take into account the development plans that would occupy a 20,000 square meter square meter (5 acres) in the East London Court in East London.
The plan faced a violent opposition from local people and campaignists who were worried about the record of human rights in Beijing Hong Kong and Sincan. In recent months, a few major protests have been carried out outside the site.
At the beginning of this month, Rayner, who also served as a housing secretary, gave two weeks to send additional details about his plans to the Chinese Embassy. In a letter, two of the embassy buildings proposed in the drawings – the cultural change building and the embassy house – said “gray ..
He wrote to the Planning Consultancy responsible for the Chinese Embassy proposal and asked to özgün definitely and comprehensively identify ve and explained the reason and reason for the corrected drawings and rejection.

In the correspondence published by Luke de Pulford, the General Manager of the Inter -Parliamentary Alliance, one of the few parties objected to the construction of the embassy, said: “The applicant is sufficient to describe the main uses of the detail level shown in unprocessed plans.” He said.
De Pulford said: “These statements are far from being satisfactory. The government set very few conditions and even the Chinese did not meet them.
In 2018, China bought the Royal Mint Court site for £ 255 million, but after rejecting Tower Hamlets Council’s planning permission in 2022, he stopped after security concerns and residents.
The conservative government refused to intervene, but the Labor Party called the council immediately after coming to power last summer and took the issue from the council. The future of the Embassy became an important problem in diplomatic relations between England and China, and the country’s president Xi Jinping raised with Keir Starmer in his first phone call last August.
Guardian reported that China’s fate of its own embassy in London last year was prevented from the demands of China to reconstruct the British Embassy in Beijing.
