Lindsay Hoyle hints at security crackdown in wake of China spy case
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"The speaker of the House of Commons has hinted at a possible security crackdown in the wake of the China spy scandal, as he said he was speaking to officials about access arrangements. Sir Lindsay Hoyle said he had sought legal advice on how to pursue this issue in other ways, days after telling MPs he was very angry over the collapse of a case against two men accused of spying for China."
"I remain disappointed by what has happened in this case. The security minister told MPs there's nothing' Keir Starmer could have done about the case falling apart (PA) I am alongside the lord speaker continuing to seek advice from officials and specialist legal advice on what steps might be taken to pursue this issue in other ways. While it would be not appropriate to talk in detail about the security matters on the floor of the House,"
The Independent solicits donations to support reporters covering reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, citing investigative work on Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and a documentary on American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet emphasizes free access to reporting without paywalls and funding from supporters who can afford it. In the UK, the Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, indicated potential security measures after the collapse of a prosecution in a China spy case. Legal advice is being sought and ministers face scrutiny over prosecutors dropping charges against two men accused of spying.
