No 10 blocks Russia EU referendum report until after election
Decision to prevent publication described as ‘jaw-dropping’ by Dominic Grieve
Downing Street has effectively blocked the publication of a potentially explosive parliamentary report on the security threat that Russia poses to the UK until after the general election.
The 50-page document from the intelligence and security committee examines allegations that Kremlin-sponsored activity distorted the result of the 2016 EU referendum, but has to be cleared by No 10 before it can be released.
