Keir Starmer recently defended his approach to fostering closer ties with China, despite concerns about the presence of numerous Chinese agents allegedly influencing the UK, as he emphasised the importance of engagement and cooperation while acknowledging the challenges posed by Beijing.

A Chinese individual, suspected of espionage and having fostered connections with Prince Andrew, is being urged by courts to have their identity revealed, raising significant concerns over national security and potential Chinese influence within the British Establishment.

Prince Andrew reportedly maintained a relationship with an individual alleged to have been a Chinese spy for a decade, since meeting him in 2012, and severed ties only after the person’s activities were uncovered by security services.

A close associate of Prince Andrew has been barred from entering the UK following an MI5 investigation over concerns of espionage, raising questions about security and diplomatic relations.
