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".

WHY did Barry Gardiner take £500k from a Chinese spy?

Mr Gardiner received large amounts of cash from her over the past decade, and employed her son Daniel in his parliamentary office until today, when MI5 agents revealed she was a spy.

Interesting.

Also, FYI OP, we're no longer able to discuss politics here.

I just found the timing of this news so interesting as Conservatives and bojo are under pressure suddenly you get this "scandal"
