Watch the moment a Labour Minister ducked Camilla Tominey's questions on whether or not the Government was to blame for the collapse of the China spy trial.Christopher Cash, 30, and Christopher Berry, 33, both denied accusations of providing information prejudicial to the interests of the state in breach of the Official Secrets Act.Last week, the head of the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) blamed the Government for the case falling to rubble when barrister Tom Little KC told the Old Bailey: "We simply cannot continue to prosecute this case."Director of Public Prosecutions Stephen Parkinson said the CPS had spent "many months" attempting to secure witness statements which confirmed China was a threat to the UK.Writing to MPs, Mr Parkinson said: "Notwithstanding the fact that further witness statements were provided, none of these stated that at the time of the offence China represented a threat to national security, and by late August 2025 it was realised that this evidence would not be forthcoming."Sir Keir Starmer has insisted that the Conservative Government was to blame as it failed to formally label Beijing a threat, while Labour was unable to do so retrospectively.WATCH THE CLIP ABOVE FOR MORE
