Former Tory MP Kenny Chiu, whose 2021 defeat has been featured in the Foreign Interference Commission’s probe into China’s election meddling, says the commission’s final report has been misrepresented in a fresh allegation from a fellow party nomination contender.

An outspoken critic of the Chinese Communist Party’s human rights abuses, Chiu became the “target of false narratives” related to his proposal for a foreign influence registry, according to the commission’s final report published on Jan. 28.
