Description
<p>Tonight I go over some worrying developments in Australia, including allegations of a Chinese spy effort to install an agent into the Australian parliament. And has money from foreign sources influenced the future of this great land. </p> <p>Some exhibits to check out: </p> <p>From 2017 "The amount of Australian farm land owned by Chinese interests has surged tenfold in the past year, climbing above 14 million hectares or 2.5 per cent of all agricultural land." - https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/china-now-owns-10-times-the-amount-of-australian-land-it-did-last-year-20170930-gyrxia.html?fbclid=IwAR0PoMsylpDjZXPGe9uUEhV7e4egKLlgN14_SCDF6HE6oJOxZaFgnGPjRRE </p> <p>"In 2017, ANZ found foreign buyers owned up to 400,000 Australian homes. Today, Mr Driscoll estimated that figure would be “close to 500,000”. ANZ also estimated foreign investors bought between 30,000 and 50,000 new dwellings in 2015-16. At that rate, Mr Driscoll said it “won’t be too long” before a million homes were in foreign hands" - https://www.news.com.au/national/fears-one-million-aussie-homes-could-soon-be-owned-by-foreign-buyers/news-story/c50a4112bab4f3ed8fae27277f313f54?fbclid=IwAR2ydtBEr_v1OTmT3-JghX_QcAKx9UczrXGmhBgsENv0VnIkBuvNvZWLaRw </p> <p>"A Chinese 'spy' who claimed he was paid $1million to infiltrate Australian politics had been photographed attending a meeting at embattled MP Gladys Liu's home. Photos have emerged showing Bo 'Nick' Zhao at an event for the Victorian Liberal Party's eastern multicultural branch hosted by Ms Liu in Glen Iris in 2016. In both pictures, which had been posted on the group's social media, Zhao is seen sitting and standing directly next to the Chisolm MP. Zhao, a car dealer who had allegedly claimed communist agents offered him money to run for parliament, was found dead in a Melbourne hotel room in March.
