38 British Tory MPs rebel over Huawei

In an attempt to force U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson to set out a timetable for eliminating Huawei from future 5G phone networks, thirty-eight Tory Members of Parliament (MPs) have rebelled against the government. If an additional 13 MPs had joined the revolt, PM Johnson would have suffered an embarrassing defeat just three months after winning a large parliamentary majority.
