China a national security threat.According to new MI5 analysis circulated to MPs last week, Chinese state-linked operatives are running “relentless” influence and information-gathering operations across Whitehall, using LinkedIn to target parliamentary researchers, advisers, and economists.Yet, even as the security services ramp up their warnings, the political system around them is pulling them in the other direction.The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) recently collapsed a high-profile spy case after ministers refused to confirm that China meets the legal threshold of a national security threat, a move that stunned intelligence specialists and triggered political backlash.\n\nDakota Cary, consultant at SentinelOne and fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub, told City AM: “If they think their best bet is to not consider China a national security threat, I have questions about the direction of their foreign policy”.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNews Updates\nStay ahead with

that, and how these decisions get made, is the real question”, he added.MI5’s widening alarm The latest warning, jointly issued by Commons speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle and Lords speaker Lord McFall, identifies two LinkedIn accounts allegedly acting for China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS).MI5 said this was part of a far broader pattern of covert approaches “at scale”, including offers of paid trips to China and cash-for-information via crypto.\n\nThe tactic may seem low-tech, but Cary explained that LinkedIn is precisely why it works.“It’s a targeter’s perfect dream”, he said. “It’s where people brag about themselves and their achievements. If you’re a foreign intelligence service looking for somebody who does a particular job, LinkedIn makes it very easy”.He warned that the target set is shifting: “I think what’s clear this time is they are very focused on access to parliament and staff on MPs – that’s a different focus to what has been public before”.Staffers, researchers, and junior advisers, many still early in their political careers, are more reachable, less guarded, and often unaware of the risks.\n\nOne Commons researcher told the BBC he received a job offer from one of the profiles, written in broken English.“If it were written in better English, you could be fooled”, he said.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
