The document first appeared on social network Reddit, which said on Saturday that it believed the leak "was part of a campaign that has been reported as originating from Russia." Corbyn told Sky News on Saturday that the story of a Russia link was "such nonsense" and "an advanced stage of rather belated conspiracy theories by the prime minister." "When we released the documents, at no stage did the prime minister or anybody deny that those documents were real," he added. Labour has not said whether it obtained the document from Reddit, which revealed it had banned 61 accounts following the investigation. Prime Minister Boris Johnson himself has come under scrutiny over why he has not released an official report into Russian interference in the Brexit referendum, and within his Tory Party.
