China Controls New Zealand By Bruce “Kiwi” Bennett
This story goes back to 2018, but is still relevant in explaining why New Zealand is so compliant to China’s demands. Its socialist rulers in the Labour Party are naturally at home with China, and comfortable with its communism, which they would no doubt like, full-scale, to see in New Zealand. New Zealand, my former home, a place of great natural beauty, but terrible politics, at the end of the world.
“An influential United States Congress hearing has been told "one of the major fundraisers for Jacinda Ardern's party" is linked to the Chinese Communist Party and it showed China had penetrated New Zealand's political networks.
As a result, US lawmakers needed to consider whether New Zealand should be kicked out of the Five Eyes intelligence alliance because of problems at its "political core".
The bombshell testimony included claims from a former Central Intelligence Agency analyst that "anything on China that was briefed to Bill English was briefed to Mr Yang Jian", the National MP revealed last year as having trained spies for China.
The hearing of the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission was aimed at gathering evidence on China's relationship with traditional US allies.
UN Senator James Talent - once touted as Donald Trump's pick for Secretary of Defence - raised concerns about "a sharp rise in political donations" from Chinese Government-backed bodies to political parties in Australia and New Zealand.
China's actions included getting people linked to the Communist Party or People's Liberation Army elected and had made it worth the while of political figures "to parrot its line on issues it deems important".
God save New Zealand!
