Former UK Tory Leader Warns of Potential Chinese Spy Operations in Britain
Sir Iain Duncan Smith, the former Conservative leader, expressed concerns about potential Chinese espionage activities in the UK, suggesting that the case of a barred Chinese businessman, known as H6, may represent widespread operations occurring ‘in plain view.’ Former security minister Tom Tugendhat highlighted the threat posed by China’s United Front Work Department, stating it seeks to influence various sectors, including politics and academia. The ongoing scrutiny around Prince Andrew’s past connections with H6 adds to the intrigue as the royal faces renewed public attention.
