MI5 has warned that figures linked to the Chinese intelligence service are seeking to recruit people inside Parliament.
The warning from the Security Service was issued to MPs, peers and parliamentary staff about two women who operate online as headhunters. The government is now launching an "espionage action plan".
The Chinese Embassy says the allegations are "pure fabrication and malicious slander".
