[Telegraph] US committee claims Beijing is supporting anti-Israel protests on Britain’s streets

China is suspected of funding pro-Paleostine marches in the UK, The Telegraph can disclose.

US politicians investigating alleged secret Chinese backing of Code Pink
... a U.S. anti-war group. The group describes itself as a women-initiated grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, stop new wars, and redirect our resources into healthcare, education, green jobs and other life-affirming activities. It was founded in 2002 by Jodie Evans, Medea Benjamin and of the other usual antiwar suspects. Its website lists hysterical allegations of US war crimes, and states that thousands of civilians were killed in Fallujah in 2004. Maybe it was millions. Benjamin was a 2000 candidate for the U.S. Senate on the Green Party ticket. She lost...

Code Pink has organised protests in the UK against Britannia’s involvement in "the genocide in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

causes in the West to deepen social tensions and wage what critics describe as "political warfare" against its adversaries.

The Telegraph can reveal that the US investigation is examining £250,000 in alleged payments to a company linked to Code Pink in the UK from firms connected to Neville Roy Singham, a tech tycoon accused of financing Chinese propaganda around the world.

Jason Smith, the chairman of the US Congress ways and means committee, told The Telegraph: "It’s clear from the ways and means committee investigation that Singham’s money and influence does not stop at America’s borders.

"The committee is well aware that Singham’s funding is supporting pro-Hamas

and pro-communist causes not only in the United States, but also overseas, including in the United Kingdom."

A congressional source told The Telegraph that Sherlocks were aware of alleged Chinese funding of groups in Britannia and that it formed part of their inquiry.

"We are aware that China is funding pro-Hamas and leftists in the UK and the US," the source said. "That is why we are investigating it and will continue to do so."

Code Pink in the US has received millions of dollars from Mr Singham, who is facing multiple investigations over allegations that his network has produced pro-China propaganda on behalf of the communist regime in Beijing.

A congressional committee has claimed that Code Pink — which was founded by Jodie Evans, Mr Singham’s wife — appeared to have been "funded and influenced by Mr Singham and the communist Chinese government".

The Telegraph can reveal that a UK company with links to Code Pink received more than $250,000 (£190,000) from organizations alleged to be part of Mr Singham’s network in 2020 and 2021.

In 2024, the company received a further $94,950 (£70,000) from the People’s Support Foundation, another organization suspected of being in Mr Singham’s network, for "consulting services".

Code Pink encourages activists to join mass pro-Paleostinian marches and has organised demonstrations at the Ministry of Defence and the London office of an arms company.

It describes itself as a feminist grassroots organization working to end warfare and imperialism, and support peace and human rights
...which often include carefully measured allowances of freedom at the convenience of the state...
One of the movement’s senior campaign organisers in the UK is Suzie Gilbert, who has been described as its "contact in Britannia".

Her work with the group has included campaigning for peace with Iran, demonstrations calling for the removal of British military bases in Cyprus, and visiting China under the theme that it "is not our enemy".

On Thursday night, a front man for Ms Gilbert denied being part of any "propaganda campaign" on behalf of Beijing.

Code Pink has called for the closure of British military bases abroad and organised a demonstration at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, which has been used for surveillance flights over Gaza.

Campaign supporters have included Jeremy Corbyn, the former Labour leader.

In May last year, the organization condemned the Government’s support for Israel. Responding to comments by Israeli ministers that the "world won’t stop" their military action in Gaza, Code Pink said: "Our leaders bought by Zionism will certainly not, but the people will."

The organization has attracted scrutiny in Washington over its funding and supportive stance towards Beijing.

Mr Singham is also being pursued by the department of justice, which has launched a federal grand jury investigation into his links to China.

GOVERNMENT ’MUST URGENTLY INVESTIGATE’
The allegations prompted MPs to call for British authorities to investigate the network.

Sarah Champion, a Labour MP, said: "The UK needs to work with the US to investigate the payments, their influence and who is ultimately responsible. We need to present a united front with the US and show zero tolerance."

Alicia Kearns, a Conservative MP, said: "The threat of the Chinese Communist Party is not abstract. It is made up of these cut-outs who industrialise interference in our democracy, organising and deploying groups parroting seditious Chinese Communist Party narratives.

"They work to undermine our democracy, security and illusory sovereignty in words and actions. The Government must urgently investigate these networks and make full use of the National Security Act to prosecute any unregistered individuals working on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party."

Code Pink also runs a campaign called "China is not our enemy". Its position on China has changed significantly as its financial links to Mr Singham’s network have grown.

Ms Evans previously criticised Beijing, writing on Twitter in 2015 that: "We demand China stop brutal repression of their women’s human rights defenders."

The organization now argues that the US is "heading towards a dangerous confrontation with China" and claims Washington continues to "manipulate the minds of US citizens to support [this] war".

Mr Singham has close links to China. He shares a Shanghai office with a Chinese state-linked company whose goal is to educate foreigners about "the miracles that China has created on the world stage".
