Another week, another Starmer scandal.
To the surprise of absolutely no one, failing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is involved in yet another one of the endless scandals that have marked his train-wreck premiership.
This time around, his most senior security adviser is accused of blocking the prosecution of suspected Chinese spies – despite credible evidence gathered by police and MI5.
The Telegraph reported:
“The domestic security agency was heavily involved in bringing the case against Christopher Cash and Christopher Berry, who were charged with passing intelligence to Beijing.
But the case against them was dropped after Jonathan Powell, who is the Prime Minister’s National Security Adviser, chaired a Whitehall meeting last month.”
STARMER ACCUSED OF SELLING OUT BRITAIN TO CHINA
Labour ministers secretly sabotaged a China spy trial — refusing to call Xi Jinping’s regime an enemy, causing the entire case to collapse.

The MI5 wanted the prosecution to go ahead but would not be drawn into a political row over the dropping of the charges.
“One source described the discussions chaired by Mr. Powell as a ‘fight’ between officials concerned about national security and those concerned about Britain’s diplomatic relationship with China.
The Foreign Office reportedly opposed the prosecution, believing that a courtroom discussion about China’s espionage would upset senior Communist Party officials in Beijing.”
Starmer’s security chief is now to be questioned in Parliament about the Chinese spying case – but only behind closed doors.
Daily Mail reported:
“Downing Street confirmed yesterday that national security adviser Jonathan Powell will appear before senior MPs and peers amid questions about why the trial of two men accused of passing secrets to Beijing was abandoned.
[…] The decision by Labour ministers – who had previously claimed Mr. Powell should not appear at all because he is a special adviser rather than an official – means the public will not hear his response to the allegations that he was involved in top-secret discussions that led to the collapse of the case.
[…] Meanwhile, Downing Street was forced to deny claims of government involvement, following reports in The Sunday Times that Mr. Powell told a briefing that China would not be deemed an ‘enemy’ of Britain at the trial, a move which experts say would make a successful prosecution under the Official Secrets Act impossible.”
