Researcher at government-funded think tank behind fake news story that Kremlin aided Corbyn's rise
The shadowy Institute for Statecraft received taxpayer funds while spreading anti-Labour propaganda
A RESEARCHER at a shadowy government-funded think tank was behind suggestions that the Kremlin assisted Jeremy Corbyn’s rise to the Labour leadership.
The Institute for Statecraft is in the spotlight after it emerged that it received funding from the taxpayer while spreading anti-Labour propaganda.
The organisation is based in a ramshackle old mill in Fife, Scotland, and avowedly sets out to counter Russian disinformation online. Several of its senior figures have military backgrounds.
