SkyNewsHD says Labour Barry Gardiner
has the Spies Son working for him. [A covert Chinese agent has infiltrated Parliament to interfere with UK politics, MI5 has revealed. An alert from the security service said Christine Ching Kui Lee "established links" with current and aspiring MPs for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). She then gave donations to politicians, with funding coming from foreign nationals in China and Hong Kong. MI5 said anyone contacted by Lee should be "mindful of her affiliation" and its "remit to advance the CCP's agenda". Conservative MP and former party leader, Sir Iain Duncan Smith, brought up the alert in the Commons, confirming it had been emailed out to MPs by the Speaker. He said it was "a matter of grave concern", calling for Lee to be deported and demanding the government made a statement to the House. Former defence minister Tobias Ellwood also called for a statement in the Commons, adding: "This is the sort grey-zone interference we now anticipate and expect from China. "But the fact that it's happened to this Parliament, there must be a sense of urgency from this government."] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-59984380 [MI5 has warned that a Chinese government agent has been working in parliament "to subvert the processes", MPs have been told. A letter was sent to MPs by Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle who said a woman has been "engaged in political interference activities on behalf of the Chinese Community Party, engaging with members here at parliament". He said she has been involved with the now disbanded all-party parliamentary group, Chinese in Britain. Leading Tory Iain Duncan Smith, who China has placed sanctions on for speaking up against its treatment of the Uyghurs, brought the letter up in the Commons on Thursday. He said: "I understand that Mr Speaker has been contacted by MI5 and is now warning members of parliament that there has been an agent of the Chinese government active here in parliament working with a Member of Parliament, obviously to subvert the processes here.] SkyNewsHD says Labour Barry Gardiner has one working for him. https://news.sky.com/story/mi5-has-w...-told-12515031 Last edited by arista; 13-05-2024 at 10:21 PM. |
