Foreign media reported that the British House of Commons held a “Prime Minister’s Questions”. Former British Prime Minister Sunak asked that he expected Lamy to unambiguously condemn China’s “military escalation” and “defend Taiwan’s democracy.” Starmer replied that mainland China’s military exercises around Taiwan are “not conducive to peace and stability” and that stability in the Taiwan Strait is in the “interests of everyone.” In addition, Starmer called on Hong Kong chaos activist Jimmy Lai, who has British national identity, to regain his freedom, saying that “this case is a priority for the government.” Reuters reported on October 9, citing people familiar with the matter, that British Foreign Secretary Lamy will visit China this week. In addition to meeting with Chinese officials in Beijing, he will also go to Shanghai to meet with representatives of British companies. British Business and Trade Secretary Jonathan Reynolds mentioned at an event on October 14 that the UK does not intend to follow the EU in imposing tariffs on electric vehicles imported from China because British companies have not yet filed relevant complaints and requested the UK to investigate. He also said that the UK “needs more engagement with China”.

Starmer said: “As permanent members of the UN Security Council, we will do our best to work together on topics such as net zero emissions, health and trade… but challenge where necessary to protect national security, human rights and our values. …”
