TL;DR Summary

Baroness Michelle Mone has responded to Rishi Sunak's comments regarding her involvement in contracts for personal protective equipment (PPE), stating that she was "honest" with the government about her links to a company that supplied PPE to the government during the Covid pandemic. Mone admitted to lying to the media about her involvement but insisted that the government was aware. The prime minister has expressed seriousness about the issue, while Lord Bethell disputed Mone's claim of honesty. Opposition parties are calling for an independent inquiry into the matter, and Mone is being investigated by the House of Lords and the National Crime Agency. PPE Medpro, the company involved, is being sued by the government for breach of contract and unjust enrichment. Mone and her husband apologized for denying their role in the deal and admitted they stand to benefit financially.
