Do you remember back in 2016 after the shock Brexit vote and then of course Trump winning in America, we were told it was Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia that were damaging our democracy, interfering in the electoral process.
Well, in the end, after a big High Court case in this country, that will prove to be completely untrue.
But the real problem, the real danger to our democracy, of course, always was China.
And we learn overnight, we'd heard in August last year that the Electoral Commission's website had been compromised, their database had been compromised, and we heard overnight that, yes, actually, the Chinese Communist Party now have access to 40 million voters in this country and their data.
Nigel Farage reacts to the latest Chinese cyber attack on the UK

Well, to respond to this, in the House of Commons earlier, we heard from the Deputy Prime Minister, Oliver Dowden.
He said: "I can confirm today that Chinese state affiliated actors were responsible for two malicious cyber campaigns targeting both our democratic institutions and parliamentarians. That is why the United Kingdom has today sanctioned two individuals and one entity associated with the Chinese state affiliated APT 31 group for involvement in malicious cyber activity, targeting officials, government entities and parliamentarians around the world."
Wonder how tough that sounds to you in terms of a response. But one Member of Parliament, Sir Iain Duncan Smith, was, shall we say, less than impressed, with a great quote, an 'elephant giving birth to a mouse' - I rather like that.
It's all going to be absolutely fine, because the Chinese Ambassador has been summoned to meet Lord Cameron, the Foreign Secretary.
And Cameron said it was really very naughty, very naughty. The same Lord Cameron who was David Cameron as Prime Minister, along with his Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, decided that we had a great new future with China.
And indeed, even invited the Chinese President down to his local pub on a Sunday lunchtime for a pint.
But given this, given the hacking into individuals, given that 40 million people's data is now going to be in the hands of the Chinese communists, what next? What do we actually do next?
