  The Huawei issue is very interesting to someone from the tech sector. Most of my former colleagues and contacts who are specialists in this area agree with the GCHQ response which is essentially that, if Huawei kit is restricted to the "air interface", then the situation is manageable. OK, their kit has innate security weaknesses but it is cheap and reliable. That's an incredibly simplistic summary, of course.
  
  That argument has clearly swayed Mrs May's judgment and did nothing to deter Cameron before her.
  
  So how political an issue has this become? One of Wilkinson's cabinet colleagues is apparently on record as describing him as "a prat who has form". Government of all talents anyone?
