An MP facing Chinese sanctions is refusing to apologise for visiting Taiwan.
ACT's Laura McClure has been banned from China for a year, along with NZ First’s David Wilson, Labour’s Duncan Webb, and National’s Maureen Pugh.

She says Taiwan has long-been an important economic and cultural partner, like China itself.
