Sir Jeremy Fleming, head of Britain’s GCHQ intelligence agency, addressed the Monarchy’s Royal United Services Institute today, in a lecture, “If China Is the Question, What is the Answer?” in which he warned of the threat that China, and also Russia, pose; and gave steps that must be taken to destroy their influence and undo their policies.
Fleming presented a façade of being a moderate, lying that Britain takes no issue with China’s economic development and developing technological strength. “But it’s how that strength is used—or misused—by the Chinese Communist Party that’s at the heart of the issues we face.”
Fleming focused on the “cyber war” in the Indo-Pacific, where the British are orchestrating a live nuclear war escalation. He stated, with his targeting of China’s Belt and Road Initiative, “They [the Chinese] recognized they needed to bend international flows of data around the Indo-Pacific region towards interception platforms inside China. They sought to steal data from deep within the critical infrastructure of countries across the world, especially those selling raw materials to Beijing, hosting allied military bases, or those industries competing with those owned by the Party elite.”
He repeated the mantra, that the principal problem is the Chinese Communist Party, blaming them for a world surveillance system, which “appears ever more established, and we think it’s dangerous.” Further, “the Party has used its resources to implement draconian national security laws, a surveillance culture and an increasingly aggressive military” — more accurately, a description of the UK or America.
Fleming bragged that Britain has trained and is running Ukraine in the current war: “We’re proud of the role the UK has played in Ukraine’s defense: that’s over a decade of UK and allied investment in cyber technologies and advanced equipment, together with a willingness to share intelligence to drive operations. It’s enhancing Ukraine’s security in real time. And it’s redefining how cyber can be responsibly used.”
Fleming concluded by warning, “you should actively manage the potential threat in your dealings with China,” including “small daily choices around cyber, investment and IP protection.”
The larger message: Distance yourself from China; distance yourself from Russia. Why? Because Big Brother Britain is watching you!
