Imagine how active the CCP is in the Victorian government.

[chrishewitt]

Our unis, bureaucracy and government have plenty. 🇦🇺

[Aaronwhatnow]

That wouldn't be surprising. They build a parliamentary building in Africa and they found out later it was full of cameras

[mackreb]

I am quite sure the CCP is active in more governments than only the UK. Ever since I suddenly was more at home (since 2 years ago) I noticed how bad the CCP is

[stormbear]

look in your own Australian Parliament backyard, there are 100's of Chinese agents, 100's

[garymunro]

Can you imagine this in China. The spy and family would be sending these resignation letters from some unnamed gulag.

[lukeh]

Only one? They mustn't be looking very hard.

[nathanielbradford]

They are in every government worldwide, most obviously in Australia…

[EL-FUKKO]

In Victoria it's mandatory to own a Huawei mobile phone
🤣🤣

This was first reported in 2017, no action has been taken against her, one wonders why Westminster is only reacting now.

[ARenewedmind]

Won't be surprised if there is one in every "democratic government".

[zlin]

Only one?? The CCP is losing their special touch!!

[Motorallyrider]

So Australia's $100, 000 in an ALDI bag to unions is not unique?

[mattusgig]

Only 1😆 there are loads of CCP members in every government, why do you think the Chinese get away with so much!?!?

[winstonsmithsoul]

She must be on holiday from Australia.

[PV]

a large number of them have been acting bought off, so yeah...

[GearHeadBoris]

Try looking closer to home Sky 🙄
It's pretty clear they are in our parliament too and it's not very hard to spot them. But let's carry on with our wilful ignorance anyway😒

[reality]

Everyone already knows about Dumbo Dan and his hidden box of gold coins offshore.

[Critical-Thinker]

Why aren't they naming the MPs involved?

[gregsmith]

Gee that’s a surprise, what about here in Australia, our dog Pollies have had their hooks out for years.
