I am proud to have help set up and lead the Conservative Friends of the Chinese (CFOC) as its Political Director from 2013-2017. Our Group was launched by Boris Johnson, the then Mayor of London (Foreign Secretary now) in the summer of 2013 to promote links between the British Chinese communities and the Conservative Party as well as enhancing the political, economic and cultural relations between the UK and China.
In Britain, the Conservatives face a similar challenge, if not (yet) as big. YouGov’s analysis of 4,000 ethnic minority voters, surveyed in the past four months, shows that the Tories have won over Britain’s Chinese community but no others.
