The Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt MP spoke to a gathering of 100 British Chinese about treasured links between the Conservatives Party and China and also the Chinese community in Britain – his personal links with the Chinese community, Lord Wei being the first British Born Chinese in the House of Lords and Alan Mak who will be the Conservative’s first British Born Chinese MP, come May 2015.

Hunt also paid tribute to the 84,000 Chinese people who helped Britain in the First World War.
