Nusrat Ghani, MP for Wealden, spoke at an event on The Dominance of Chinese State-Owned CCTV in the UK organised by Big Brother Watch to mark the launch of their new report: Who’s Watching You? She was joined by fellow sanctioned MP Sir Iain Duncan-Smith.
Adding her voice to Big Brother Watch’s campaign to ban Hikvision and Dahua equipment from the UK, Nusrat signed the following statement:
“We call for a ban on the sale and operation of Hikvision and Dahua surveillance equipment in the UK and condemn their involvement in technology-enabled human rights abuses in China. We call on the Government to commission an independent national review of the scale, capabilities, ethics and rights impact of modern CCTV in the UK.”
