China wants its embassy in UK bigger

China wants to make its embassy to the UK much bigger. Why would it want this? One reason could be to keep Uygur and Tibetan protesters, whose protests we should support, further away. But if this allows China to have more diplomats in the UK, China would use them for nefarious purposes, including espionage and intimidation of oversees Chinese. An inconvenient old embassy in Beijing is a price worth paying to hamper that.
