China compares UK concern of ‘political interference’ with James Bond films

China on Friday slammed UK Military Intelligence, Section 5 (MI5) report that a British lawyer of Chinese descent is “involved in political interference activities” in the UK Parliament on behalf of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

“China always adheres to the principle of non-interference in other country’s internal affairs. We have no need and never seek to ‘buy influence’ in any foreign parliament,” a spokesperson from China’s Embassy in the UK responded on Thursday, firmly opposing the “trick of smearing and intimidation against the Chinese community” in the UK.
