MI5 warning over 'Chinese agent' in Parliament
BBC ^ | 1-13-22

Posted on 01/13/2022 3:36:37 PM PST by nuconvert

MI5 has issued a rare warning that an alleged Chinese agent has infiltrated Parliament to interfere in UK politics.

An alert from the security service said Christine Ching Kui Lee "established links" for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) with current and aspiring MPs.

She then gave donations to politicians, with funding coming from foreign nationals in China and Hong Kong.

It comes after a "significant, long-running" investigation by MI5, Whitehall sources told the BBC.

One of the MPs funded by Ms Lee was Labour's Barry Gardiner, who received over £420,000 from her in five years - but he said he had always made the security services aware of the donations.

Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey also received a £5,000 donation when he was energy secretary - but he said the money was accepted by his local association and it was "the first time he has been given cause to be concerned".

And that’s the key point right there. It’s easy for the ChiComs to funnel money to Western politicians. All you need is a few intermediaries.

Expect much more of this in the future.

In PRC (Politically Repressive Canada), the CSIS (Canadian Security Intelligence Service) would NEVER issue such a warning because Prime Mistake Justin(e) True-dolt IS a Chinese Agent!

Likewise in the USSA, I wouldn’t expect such a warning from the FIB, as most THINKING PEOPLE realize that pResident Joe BiteMeis also a CCP agent.

Does the CCP spy agency in Britain have anything close to a 20+ yr communist spy chauffeur for U.S. Senator Feinstein?
Or a Chinese Communist spy/hooker fornicating House Intel committee member Eric Swalwell?

They may, but otherwise, Amateurs

I know the answer to this. There are two agents one is called Labour and the other is called Tory.

Back in 2008 GOP Senator Mitch McConnell and his wife accepted a cash gift of at least $5 million from her father. And just who is her father? Well, he’s James Chao, and he has close ties with the ChiCom leadership.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Brings to mind a bit of dialogue from a fictional Chinese character in a fictional action movie from some years back - "America has many laws, written by men. Money can change everything." No truer words spoken.

Never underestimate the Communists and their intelligence services, esp those of Red China. After all, they’ve had thousands of years of experience. What have we had in comparison?

Remember err Pearl Harbor? Red Chinese entry into the Korean War? The successes of the Marxist Weathermen, May 19th Communist Organization re Nyack robbery killings, Khobar Towers, Benghazi, USS Cole, Beirut Marine barracks destruction, World Trade Center 1 and 2 - 911? The assassination of JFK and attempt on Reagan? Etc.

Nowadays James Bond deals with a Chinese agent in the British parliament with a news release.

How woke of British Intelligence.

Nothing new or startling here...
The UK parliament has been 50% communist spies since the 1930’s...
