The ship goes down but the band plays on



BBC journalist probed by secret services over China spying allegations


A BBC journalist is under investigation by the UK’s security services over alleged links to Chinese espionage, according to reports.

Sources told the Mail on Sunday that the journalist is suspected of cultivating potential targets for a hostile state while previously working in Brussels for another media outlet.

The person remains employed by the BBC, which has refused the Mail’s request for comment.



We're off to Sainsbury's soon. We don't eat popcorn, but may increase our stock of dark chocolate. In spite of everything, life threatens to become amusing. 

If Seaside Ange elbows her way back into the political circus, this winter could become quite jolly. Until the bills come in I suppose.
