Campaigners believe China sent a ‘spy’ to infiltrate a House of Commons briefing by Hong Kong dissidents. A man claiming to be a tourist reportedly tried to enter the invitation-only talk in a committee room inside the Houses of Parliament.
China has sanctioned several prominent British MPs and peers, including former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith and ministers Nusrat Ghani and Tom Tugendhat.
Tory MP Alicia Kearns, who chairs the foreign affairs committee, said: ‘These reports are very concerning. We have seen how far the CCP is prepared to take its repression of freedoms in Hong Kong. ‘No one from the Chinese government should be setting foot in Parliament after their assault on the freedoms of MPs, let alone sneaking around our corridors.’
