A Chinese state-controlled newspaper will no longer be automatically delivered daily to British lawmakers, after a push against the publication by a prominent Member of Parliament (MP) prompted a rule change on unsolicited deliveries within the House of Commons.

For nine years, China Daily has been automatically delivered to all MPs. It appears to be the only publication to have been bulk mailed to MPs in this manner.
