"Controversy Surrounding Michelle Mone's PPE Deals and House of Lords Return"
A dispute has erupted between Tory peer Michelle Mone and the UK government over her involvement in a company that secured lucrative PPE contracts during the pandemic. Mone claimed that the Cabinet Office, government, and NHS were aware of her links to the company before awarding her husband's firm £203m in contracts. The National Crime Agency is investigating alleged criminal offenses in the procurement of contracts by the company. Opposition leader Keir Starmer called for Mone to be expelled from the House of Lords, while the government faces pressure to answer questions about their knowledge of the situation.
