Today I secured an Urgent Question in the @HouseofCommons following deeply disturbing reports that China has obtained the personal phone records and financial information of MPs sanctioned by the Chinese Communist Party. This is not simply a matter of national security: the Government seems to be missing the point. This is about individual MPs being targeted by a hostile foreign state for speaking out against its actions.
What does the Government know about the information China already holds on us? How much more are they trying to gather? And why on earth have we not been told? It isn't just us. Our families are sanctioned too. I have a family member living abroad, and I am deeply concerned about their safety.
Since these revelations emerged on Sunday, not one security official has contacted any of us. Why weren't we taken aside and warned? We have a right to speak freely in Parliament without fear of intimidation by Beijing. Frankly, this is not good enough and the Government needs to start answering these questions. @10DowningStreet @ukhomeofficeView quoted post on X
🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨Iran is planning further attacks on US airbases in the UK, it can now be revealed.View quoted post on X
Yesterday it emerged that the Pentagon had withdrawn at least a dozen aircraft from a Royal Air Force base in Suffolk after Iranian threats to US military sites.
Nine air-to-air refuelling tankers were among those moved from RAF Mildenhall to other bases in the UK, Germany and Spain on Monday.
The evacuation was prompted by concern from US authorities about the security threat from Tehran.
Emboldened by the chaos caused by a plot to target RAF Fairford in September, the hostile state now has ambitions to carry out similar low-level attacks on other US airbases using criminal proxies in the UK, sources have told the @DailyMail.
The US is likely to continue moving aircraft as it takes an extremely risk-averse approach to any threat to its expensive assets or personnel.
The Mail understands that there was no direct threat to RAF Mildenhall, but the Pentagon didn't want to take any chances on learning Iran is planning to further target US military sites.
