Don't worry about Huawei,
the OG dfds Liam Fox, has this morning dusted down his ceremonial bowler hat,
as President of the Board of Trade,
and is this morning leisurely flicking through a rolodex of key UK electronics companies that can be trusted to build our 5G network.
So far, he has googled 'Racal', 'Plessey', 'GEC', 'Marconi', (then 'GEC Marconi'), 'Inmos', 'Cable& Wireless', and 'Ferranti'.
A spad is working on contacting their Chairmen.
Another spad has suggested a working lunch with Sir Clive Sinclair, Sir Alan Sugar, and John Cauldwell, who was popping in anyway to offer some tax advice.
Liam's confident he can launch the 'UK 5G Consortium' by the end of the month, and have the Working Party issue a discussion document before the end of the year.
