SCOTLAND is “overdependent” on Chinese money to fund its universities, according to an SNP MP who said he had been subject to Communist…
Stewart McDonald urged the Scottish Government to become “alive” to the ways in which state institutions could be “exploited” by the Chinese state.
Chinese state actors, he claimed, had set up fake email accounts to pose as him and contact other politicians throughout the world to make false claims about him “recanting” his views on China.The former Tory leader compared Britain’s policy towards China with the “appeasement” approach towards Nazi Germany in the 1930s.He said: “What does it teach you when you try and please those that you think are threatening? The answer is, they get more threatening and that’s what appeasement teaches us.
"If, God help us, we’re in a situation where there is a conflict in Taiwan or if there is an economic blockade of Taiwan and there are sanctions back and forward that our universities fall subject to that, what happens then?” Elsewhere, McDonald claimed students from Hong Kong – which has become increasingly authoritarian since being handed back to China – are being “harassed” and “intimidated”.
"At the same time, we oppose the politicisation of cyber security issues and the baseless denigration of other countries without factual evidence.”
