Nelson solicitor and Euro MP Sajjad Karim, Liberal Democrat Spokesperson on International Trade, has called on the EU to challenge China over trade barriers against imported car parts.
He said: "It is important to show the world that the EU will not tolerate infringements of rules and China will not be receiving special treatment from Brussels.
"Tolerating this policy will only encourage China to extend these illegal measures to boost their local industry in other areas, at great cost to European industry."
