The British prime minister David Cameron celebrates UK-Chinese trading and says he wants to see even more trade flowing between the two countries, as he confirms a deal with China General Nuclear Power Corporation to build a nuclear power plant at Hinkley Point, Somerset. Hinkley Point will become Britain's first new nuclear power station in a generation.
