A Chinese businessman, referred to as H6 and a close associate of Prince Andrew, has lost his appeal against a UK entry ban imposed for national security reasons. The Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, had cited concerns about H6’s potential ties to Chinese influence operations. The ruling emphasized the businessman’s unusual access to the royal family and the risks posed to UK national security, particularly given Prince Andrew’s past controversies and financial troubles. The relationship was deemed a potential avenue for political interference.
