This is a major issue for any foreign investor, why would anyone invest in the UK if there is such risks. The Chinese and Saudis have invested heavily in the UK, what’s our Government going to do next, seize everything they own because they didn't agree with the UK’s stance. Appreciate it’s an extreme but the way this government joins the dots it’s a matter of time before companies or investments from outside the UK become targeted. Taking down a FTSE 100/250 sends serious signals to international investors, it may send a signal to Russia but is very likely to hurt the UK in the long run.
