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

The Australian Federal Police this morning raided the Sydney home of NSW Labor MP Shaoquett Moselmane, including a number of his vehicles, and is now attempting to raid his parliamentary office. Mr Moselmane has found himself in hot water over a series of controversial comments relating to China, including praising the regime’s handling of the coronavirus crisis.

Mr Moselmane has reportedly taken nine privately-funded trips to China since he was elected to Parliament – with some of the costs taken care of by Chinese government agencies. Attorney-General Christian Porter authorised ASIO to gather evidence from anyone suspected of seeking to influence the MP or his staff on behalf of the Chinese government.

Global infiltration.

Don't forget Andrews' personal Chinese Spy who he protects at all costs

using intel targeting political opponents. recall steele dossier/fbi/mueller, and mr realDonaldTrump

Traitor! You should charges for espionage and conspiring with China in trying to destroy the Australian political system for what, for money to buy a house for you father across the street from you, your sister a couple doors down from and your brother again on the same street

CCP Labor MP

Infiltrated or invited, we have pretty much already capitulated. We always get told buy Australian, but gov departments buy foreign, they tell us to save for the future but they spend all public money, don't put all your eggs in 1 basket

Sounds normal

Wonder if he met up with Dumplings Dan, there got a lot in common.

One of many in the Labor party infiltrated Dan Andrews next....

Treason!

Allegations, Accusations, Insinuations and fabrication speciality... Try leading with evidence, proof or facts.... Covid-19 blamed China with zero evidence or facts...

Gladys Liu?

If it's other way around, China regime would quickly charge an accused of espionage which carry life imprisonment or death sentence under China laws

In other news, how good is Gladys Liu?!

Melbourne_3000 labortrash

its a joke or is it? .......

This could ruin AustralianLabor 's chances at being electable for a long time to come. I'm a proud Laborite/ Labourite myself, but i disapprove of this.

But the big question on this is were is albo,he’s the labor leader it’s his responsibility to make sure this doesn’t happen. So far we have corruption in Victoria, nsw, qld and the NT. Now this latest involving potential espionage.Why isn’t albo being called out he’s their leader

In america dems have been infiltrated. Ccp is making ballots for voter fraud

Check with Dastyari first, he’d be up to his neck in it

Since Keating perhaps Hawke a vote for Labor is a vote for the CCP!

Labour Party have to be very careful because China will do everything in there power to destroy our relations with The USA it might look good now but for the future of our kids will be gone free country is better then dictatorship no matter what sacrifice we take, Freedom for all

Once the ASIO are on your ass, you pretty much done the things that you shouldn’t do as a MP🤥

Is it illegal to go to the USA once a year, hire an ex White House staffer or support its administration against attacks that you deem unfounded? A lot of closets to look in if so. What exactly is the evidence?

Major inside man - chairman Dan

political game on

But Gladys Lui ? If it's matter of national security then be fair and investigate all

Is anyone really surprised?

This is how the Cold War started. Spying, stealing secrets and being global turds.
