Senior Tories have said ‘high-risk’ vendors should be ruled out (Picture: PA) A group of senior Conservatives has written to party MPs expressing concerns over the controversial move to allow Chinese tech firm Huawei a role in building the UK’s 5G network. Former Tory leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith is among the signatories of the letter and said there was cross-party concern on the issue. He told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: ‘There is real concern across the floor of the House. I think there is a lot of disquiet over this.’ He added: ‘The truth is if they are not a trusted vendor, if, as the Foreign Secretary said at the despatch box, that China is considered to be an aggressor in these matters, they are constantly attacking our systems alongside Russia – they claim that Russia is an aggressor, but they won’t have anything to do with Russian technology – then surely the same principle must apply to China. ‘And, I think, therefore, we need to get the Government to look to get the involvement of Huawei, not to 35%, but to zero. ‘We are turning out to be the mugs in this game.’ Sir Iain Duncan Smith, former leader of the Conservatives has written to the party’s MPs warning against giving certain vendors access to the UK’s 5G network (Picture: GC Images) The letter is believed to have also been signed by Owen Paterson, David Davis and Damian Green and says vendors judged as ‘high-risk’ should be ruled out immediately. The letter states: ‘We are seeking to identify a means by which we ensure that only trusted vendors are allowed as primary contractors into our critical national infrastructure. ‘Trusted vendors would be companies from countries that have fair market competition, rule of law, respect human rights, data privacy and non-coercive government agencies.’ The letter comes as US vice president Mike Pence hinted moves by prime minister Boris Johnson to give part of the network to Hauwei could endanger any post-Brext trade deal between the UK and America. When pushed on whether a decision on the Chinese tech giant could be a deal-breaker, he replied: ‘We’ll see. We’ll see if it is.’ He added: ‘We are profoundly disappointed because, look, when I went at the president’s direction in September I met with Prime Minister Johnson and I told him the moment the UK is out of Brexit we were willing to begin to negotiate a free trade arrangement with the UK. ‘But we just don’t believe that utilising the assets, the technology of Huawei is consistent with the security or privacy interests of the UK, of the United States, and it remains a real issue between our two countries.’ The remarks came after it was reported that US President Donald Trump blasted the Prime Minister with ‘apoplectic’ rage during a heated phone call regarding the 5G move.
