Pro-China candidates were used to get pro-Chinese candidates elected and anti-China ones defeated. Cabinet and the PMO were well-breathed on the extent of foreign interference, yet nothing was done. Why is the Prime Minister eager to turn a blind eye to shady Liberal nominations, sketchy donations, and having pro-Beijing MPs in its own caucus? Will his personally selected special rapporteur also be investigating the Liberal Party?
