Problem is the Govt doesn't give a flying f**k about UK assets transferring into the hands of foreign government-owned companies. The whole of the UK is up for sale.
Ministers just want them not to be on the public account and they really don't worry about who owns things and have got into all sorts of problems in the past. No-one in Govt knows how to write a contract for these things and that has led to some juicy scandals - not that they care
