Labor suspended NSW MP Shaoquett Moselmane on Friday as federal agents raided his home and parliamentary office for evidence of links to a Chinese government interference plot in one of the most significant ASIO investigations in recent history.

"I, in the last hour, have asked the general secretary of the party to begin the process of suspending his membership of the Labor Party. It's the right thing to do," Ms McKay said on Friday morning."He will no longer sit in the caucus. He will no longer be a Labor Party member. His membership is being suspended as we speak.

By noon, Mr Moselmane had arrived at his parliamentary office with his lawyer. It was a hive of activity, federal agents hovered around the office's entrance accompanied by NSW Police officers.

When does Eden Monaro vote? Nice to see the press there again.

Labor should just tell the truth to the Australian nation. You are helping China's per-invasion plans for our nation. A vote for Labor is a vote for the communist party of China.

Almost every officials in China is a ccp party member. I don't see the point of the repeatedly emphasis of ccp party.

What has happened to the once great Labor tradition?

Doing ScottyFromMarketing dirty work full time it seems ....

How come the media was camped out with cameras ready all morning? AFP have become political.

Wow, AustralianLabour a member of CCP

As an Australian politician being friendly to China is now not only politically incorrect but also bearing the high risk of criminal charge😑 Freedom? Nope, only freedom of sinophobia.

Expel expel expel

Be interesting to see how this plays out.

Woah

Seems like AustralianLabor and China are a match made in heaven.

NSW MP's Sydney home raided as ASIO probes China linksFederal agents have raided the Sydney home of a NSW Labor MP this morning amid allegations Chinese government agents have infiltrated his office to influence Australian politics. The NSW & Victorian Labor links to China are a real concern. Interesting that ASIO has not looked to the government's front bench. None the less, regardless of party, a proactive approach against interference is needed. China needs to remain a trading partner, but nothing more. Labor at it again ?
