Possible links between Labor MP and China point to a 'deeper problem' in the ALP

Concerns a Labor MP has been collaborating with China to further the communist government’s strategic and economic interests are indicative of “deeper problems” within the Labor party, according to Sky News host Chris Kenny.

A major investigation has been launched into allegations Chinese government agents have infiltrated the political office of a NSW Labor MP.

On Friday, the Australian Federal Police raided the Sydney home and parliamentary offices of NSW Labor MP Shaoquett Moselmane.

According to Mr Kenny, this was not the first time questionable links had been discovered between a Labor politician and the Communist Party of China.

He cited an incident concerning Labor Senator Sam Dastyaria who was forced to quit parliament after it was discovered Beijing was paying some of his personal bills and he was publicly spruiking Chinese foreign policy lines.

Mr Kenny pointed to Mr Moselmane’s similar track record of promoting Chinese aspirations regarding world dominance and global media control.

“This is deeply concerning that a person seemingly so out of touch, so antipathetic to our national values, should sit in an Australian parliament, arguing for the rise of a communist regime that simply does not share our values of freedom, democracy and respect for human rights”.

The ALP members who have enabled Mr Moselmane’s career must carefully assess their political values and ensure they put Australia first in the future, Mr Kenny said.
