Britain’s elite Cambridge University will rebrand its China Centre following revelations it had trained senior members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to become better authoritarian leaders.

The centre was set up in 2016 at Jesus College Cambridge and was reviewed by a panel of the college’s academics following a slew of media exposes about worryingly close ties with the CCP.
