Top aide to Gordon Brown gets seduced by an attractive Chinese woman at a Shanghai hotel night club, takes her back to his room and wakes up and “TA-DA” his blackberry missing.

The incident occurred in Shanghai on the second day of the tour. That evening, about a dozen members of the Downing Street staff went to a hotel disco where a lively party with several hundred young people was in full swing.

“It was apparently a lot of fun, there was quite a bit of dancing with lots of people ona big crowded dance floor,” said one security official.

The group stayed at the disco for at least two hours. One senior aide was approached by an attractive Chinese woman. The couple danced and later disappeared together.

The security official said: “In these circumstances it was not wise. Nobody knows exactly what happened after they left. But the next morning he came forward and said: “My BlackBerry is missing.” The prime minister’s Special Branch protection team were alerted.

This probably happens to dozens of horny laowai in Shanghai every weekend.

    Is it just me who finds the expression “honeytrap” somewhat kinky?
