A Chinese ‘wolf warrior’ impersonated me, says Iain Duncan Smith

Former Tory leader says China should be labelled a threat to UK security after alleged cyber-attack

Iain Duncan Smith has said he was impersonated by a pro-China “wolf warrior” and has called for the country to be labelled a threat to UK security.

The former Tory leader said on Monday that the “wolf warrior”, a term used for combative proponents of the Chinese government, had impersonated him and sent emails to politicians around the world suggesting he had changed his views about Beijing.
