Josh Simons, the former director of Labour Together thinktank, resigned as a Cabinet Office minister Saturday after commissioning a 2023 report that falsely linked journalists to a "pro-Kremlin" network while investigating stories about the organization's failure to declare over £700,000 in donations. Labour Together's board said it is making a "clean break from the past" and distanced itself from Simons' decision to hire the lobbying firm.
