This time it's all about Labour together.

Regular listeners will remember we spoke to investigative journalist Paul Holden last week about his reporting on Morgan McSweeney and the think tank.

So do check out the episode to hear him talk about being investigated and reported to the secret services.

Here's his reaction to the latest news.

Just for the listeners in audio, just listening to the podcast, Paul delivered that message to us from his car, which I really enjoyed.

Just as an investigative journalist flourish.

Yes.

He's in the car.

I expect there's a flask of hot tea in there.

This is serious business.

So now the prime minister has ordered the cabinet office to investigate the cabinet office minister, Josh Simons, who used to be the head of Labour Together.

So that's the cabinet office investigating a cabinet minister.

Not sure an internal investigation is necessarily going to quiet the concerns over what's happened here.

They hadn't declared some of their donations to the Electoral Commission.

Right.

It does seem weird, but it's worse than that because the donations element of it was, of course, a smoking gun.

Like, there's rules around that.

That's not really OK.

And it is worth saying that the Electoral Commission did find that they definitely did do that.

Right.
