        On China 🇨🇳 China poses the “biggest state-based threat” to the UK’s economic security and a “systemic challenge” to UK prosperity and values. Sensitive sites such as critical national infrastructure, including hospitals, power plants and water systems, will be made more secure

        On Russia 🇷🇺 Russia remains the “most acute threat to our security” and the UK will work with Eastern European states to help build resilience to the threat from Moscow. A counter-disinformation unit will fund initiatives to expose disinformation in “Russia’s near abroad”.

        Britain will also change the terms of when the UK might threaten to use nuclear weapons. Now, a state that does not have nuclear weapons but threatens a cyber, chemical or biological attack using “emerging technologies” will be open to retaliation.

        On Terrorism 💣 Terrorists are “likely to” launch a successful chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear attack by 2030, according to the review. A new, White House-style situation room will be built in the Cabinet Office to monitor such threats.

        On Elections 🗳️ An “Election cell” will protect elections from disinformation and look to introduce voter ID at polling stations, as well as improving online political campaigning with a “digital imprints regime”.

        Nuclear weapons against a cyber threat? Seems a bit excessive. Also invites a nuclear response.
