I suppose if you mean it could be seen as controversial because of its Israeli origins. Perhaps, but then so would the MoD's lease of Israeli UAVs or the development of Watchkeeper involving a major Israeli defence company. Besides, from what I gather from the press release, Simigon will only supply the software (licences), training and support for the end user to operate the system in a similar way that most software packages would.
