ASIO betrays Australia

Mike Burgess is being an ass:

China’s leading spy agency has been revealed as the organisation behind the sustained targeting of Australians detailed by the nation’s spy chief in his annual threat assessment.

In an exclusive interview with this masthead and 60 Minutes, ASIO Director General Mike Burgess has separately hit back at calls for him to identify the “traitor” ex-politician who he accused of betraying the nation in last week’s threat assessment.

Stop milking it, Mike, and tell us who it is. The Australian public have an absolute right to know and you have absolutely no right to keep it from them.

Secrecy is also a betrayal. Especially so, when it comes to the Chinese Commuist Party and MSS which craves it above all else.

Put simply, how does not naming this apostate discourage the next one?

Prominent Chinese apologists and those with financial connections include Bob Carr, Andrew Robb, Paul Keating, Eric Roozendaal, Ernest Wong, Daryl Maguire, Shaoquett Moselmane, Sam Dastayari, Gladys Liu, and Anthony Albanese.

Who is it? Or is it someone new?

The best cure to Chinese spies, infiltration, and quiet attempts to buy the country is to let the sunshine in.

Silence is ASIO doing MSS work for it.
