A founding member of the Christian Democratic Movement (KDH) in 1990, Šimko left to co-found the Slovak Democratic and Christian Union in 2000. After a disagreement with Prime Minister Mikuláš Dzurinda, he led a group of MPs to form the Free Forum in January 2004.

On 15 May 2023, president Zuzana Čaputová installed Šimko as Minister of Interior Affairs in her technocratic government. On 19 July 2023, he was removed as a minister due to concerns about political interference in police work. Provided by Wikipedia
