Labour Together

Labour Together is a thinktank that played a significant role in Keir Starmer's rise to power. It is currently newsworthy due to allegations of targeting journalists who were investigating the organization's finances. Specifically, former director Josh Simons commissioned a PR firm to investigate journalists who wrote about undeclared donations to Labour Together. This investigation falsely linked some journalists to a "pro-Kremlin" network, leading to Simons' resignation as a minister and a formal investigation by Keir Starmer. The Cabinet Office is also examining the commissioning of the report. Labour Together has stated it is making a "clean break" from the past. These events raise questions about transparency and ethical conduct within the organization and its relationship with the Labour Party leadership.
