- Опубліковано 5 лис 2023
- After three years of investigating and denials from three different law firms, the Guardian's David Conn has finally received an admission that Baroness Mone had an affiliation with PPE Medpro. The Guardian say that her husband Douglas Barrowman has also admitted involvement. The company received £200 million in contracts during the pandemic, but £122 million of equipment they provided was deemed not fit for purpose. David Conn reveals his findings to James O'Brien.

Bottom line:
1) This money needs to be recovered with interest
2) The fraudulent perpetrators need to be prosecuted
3) Governance and procurement procedures must be improved in relation public funds
In relation to point (3), you may find that sound governance and procurement procedures are already in place. Typically government ignores/ overrides the regulations when it sees fit.
They are way to wealthy to go to jail in Britain.
Totally agree with you, however, we still have the corrupt Tories in power, and it was them that gave all of our Tax's to the equally corrupt perpetrators ...
Starmer said he's going after them
Starmer has said a lot of things...
Who gave Mone her life peerage - David Cameron. This honours list for friends of the PM needs to stop because it’s so corrupt.
Amazing how the Lords reforms ended up somehow being more bent and troublesome than hereditary peerages. That takes some doing!
She literally got her peerage because she went on the TV and threatened to leave Scotland if it became independent. Scummy to the bone.
Liz truss has nominated a life term peer for every 4 days she was in office !
It’s berserk.
The Lords need to be abolished getting paid over 300 pound a day for doing nothing
Cameron gave her more than a peerage 😮😮😮😮
How any law-abiding, honest and decent person votes conservative beats me
I agree but Labour Party mps. Enough said
I think the point is: people who value those traits in human beings are not the kind of people who vote Conservative. And Conservatism knows it, which is why they feed their ignorant voters hate, grievance, resentment and constant self-victimization instead. One of the world’s best grifts.
@@chrisbartholomew54 no comparison between the two - Labour aren't perfect but they are compared to this corrupt self-serving conservative shower.
Because labour are worse and can’t let the loony left get in.
Well, they're not law abiding, honest or decent
She should be in prison and all of the others who ripped the country off should be in there with her .

Maybe that's why the Tories have overseen a scenario where there is no space in British jails so judges can't sentence them to a custodial term
a jew never goes to jail... what are u on about
Make them pay every thing back to us with costs and interest, then take away her Title. Not a Public Servant by any measure
Please, this is a banana republic, not a functioning democracy.
This is clearly a delusional fantasy, capitalism is simply theft by another name and its laws that legalise theft.

As a nurse working all through the pandemic 😷 putting myself at risk, worrying about what I might be bringing home after a shift, not having the right PPE. This Conservative government disgusting me. How anyone can ever vote for them ever again, is beyond me!
If you care about the NHS, VOTE THEM OUT!!!
community socail care myself cost me £15 for 2 masks i have weak immunity from med pro
I fully agree-i was working in urgent care throughout the pandemic-luckily never had to drop a shift but lost a couple of colleagues-the trouble is what would heir apparent Starmer do??-he and Streeting have already declared more involvement from American companies!! I will not be voting for him!💚
@@trevorstephenson5766the NHS is in trouble if someone with your brain power is working there
@@trevorstephenson5766unfortunately, no matter what anyone thinks of Keir Starmer when Clegg made the decision to "jump into bed" with David Cameron and decided to form a coalition government with the Tory's he decimated the Lib Dem party and made this Country into a 2 party political system and that remains now. Next Theresa May when she needed her government propping up she ended up with the DUP and look where that ended. The moral of the story is that the ONLY way to get these corrupt Tory's out is to vote against them and that will have to be by voting Labour because the. Lib Dems will never be able to overturn the Tory's and people have to be realistic about that!
Ozzy, similar story from me. As a community practitioner, I was regularly in contact with people who had COVID. We were initially given face masks which were subsequently withdrawn because they were not fit for purpose, a little plastic pinnie and a flimsy pair of 'protective' gloves. Ultimately, me and virtually all my colleagues caught Covid.
Mone and all her cronies who were involved in this (what appears to be) fraudulent activity need to be arrested and face trial in a court of law. These parliamentary slap on the wrist investigations simply will not do😮
It beggars belief that there is still a sizable (hopefully) minority who for want of greed or misplaced loyalty still try to support these wrongdoers and who still, after the abundance of wrongdoing by the Tories, who still intend to vote for them in the next general election.
One thing is certain. They will never, ever get my vote. I would rather vote for screaming Lord Sutch and his bunch of monster raving loonies than the corrupted Tories.
This should not go unpunished! Not just her, everyone else who acted in a fraudulent manner should face criminal prosecutions
👍🏾
But it probably will go unpunished
Sadly we all know nothing will happen and they will all get to keep the money they stole.
Who else got a contract ?
They won't get punished, Borris got the minimum fine for attending multiple parties with put ppe or social distancing. While other people received thousands of pounds worth of fines over BS. During lockdown I watched the metropolitan police eat at places with no social distancing but would stop people on the street having a socially distanced conversation, I watched them ignore a group of 40 odd in a park, none of them from the same house hold sharing a sheesha, letting there kids run riot in a park, just to arrest a teenager smoking a joint hidden in the woods. The government of this country or the police adhere to the law, only the laws they feel to, but that will depend on the time.
If it was not fit for purpose then they should be able to retrieve the money and prosecute those responsible. Take away her honour.
And put the dog in jail where it belongs!
👍👏
She has no honour. In either sense. A peerage, but no honour. It was a payment, not an Honour

My daughter works for the fraud department of a local council and they look into things as small as falsely getting disabled parking permits where people get fines for these sorts of things. What sort of investigation will go into the legitimacy of people making fortunes from terribly PPE contracts and the people awarding those contracts
None😂😂
None as these rich people donate to the Tory party
A very fair point .
Not a single thing will be done because people seem to think governments are democratic 😂😂
I was called up by my council because they found "two" names residing in my property while claiming Single Occupancy Discount. Turns out there is one version with my adopted English first name and my Chinese last name and another version with my Chinese first name, followed by my English first name, and my Chinese last name. I never used the latter version in all my dealings with the council or my usual life (including banking,) only when I do major things like applying for my passport. Don't know how my council stumbled across my other names. I had to send a copy of my British Passport to them to prove that I am the same person in either version. Of course, when you are robbing the government of 65 millions, you don't get any scrutiny.
The most disgusting thing is none of this corruption will result in a criminal prosecution and jail time for those involved as should happen. This country makes me sick.
But imagine a poor person stealing a sandwich, they'd be prosecuted for sure.
Depends who is in power..
I mean, you could go the traditional two party route, or..
You could put me in power and you'd have an entirely different result. I wonder, do the British public really want rid of the tory party? 🤔
Yes they would and they have stolen millions ,give that money back disgusting .

This is corruption at its highest level. This so-called Baroness and her husband need to be charged criminally as well as the politicians who allowed this to happen.
And this is still costing us. "The unusable PPE cost nearly £200m to store in the first nine months of 2022-23, and the DHSC estimates that its future storage and disposal costs for unusable PPE will be around £319m."
But there is no money for teachers or nurses or doctors.
and more money spent on disposal
Let that be you or me that defrauded this government by let's say even £1,000,000 we would have been locked up & the keys thrown away...,let that sink in & yet here we are.

£65m could prevent anyone from using a food bank in the UK yet more people are using them each week. Yet it ends up in the already wealthiest back accounts and trust funds to cater for a family of 4
that seems cheap only 65m ?
What appals me now is how little coverage of this development is in the major UK news sites and papers. BBC, ITV, Sky, not to mention the Mail etc (from whom we expect nothing) are absolutely silent about it. The only we can find out about this sort of stuff is via LBC and the Guardian who are sadly not communicating to a vast audience. Millions and millions of pounds of money and so many are silent
They're too busy covering all the red flag operations and distractions all around the world , so we don't see what went on during the " pandemic"
The mainstream media and Tories are in bed together. This was always the case for last 40 years.
They only mention what they want to ram down people throats is why the mainstream can’t be trusted and why more alternative media is the better option…MSM at one point in the past might have reported, but are now wholly complicit in holding back on real new
Because the majority of the UK press are Tory mouthpieces.
Very true. I don't even watch mainstream media anymore. They only push the parts of the narrative they are told to sell. Sickening
Please don't call her a Baroness any more. She is a complete disgrace and should be kicked out of the house of lords!
Michael, is that it! I suppose it's better than sitting in front of a political panel and saying "I'm sorry", and riding off into the sunset with their ill gotten gains...............but not much!!!

I'm struggling to remember a single day when we didn't hear of some crooked activities of this government.
There is hope. In The Netherlands the state is actually sueing a man called Sywert van Lienden. As his position as a political lobbyist and commentator managed to secure contracts for many millions in PPE which turned out to be of sub-par quality and hardly usable. They are confiscating over 21 million euro of his personal wealth so you can imagine the huge profits that were made during this chaotic period.
But the government already knows, denies everything and does nothing.
Ah but that's in the Netherlands. I don't know much about your class system, but here in Britain the Tories are "the party of natural government" who pass laws that only apply to the plebs.
Great news but I'd put money on it that this is why they have denied it for two years, to have time to either move/protect the money and get their stories straight and vetted legally to avoid prosecution.
@@davidcjupp I understand why you would say that but they actually really seem to go after this guy. His company and all his assets were seized and auctioned off.
So, there IS hope ...... time will tell 😊😊😊 .
If you've lived the last 20 years as a British citizen and you can't see what's clearly happening then you deserve everything that's coming to you.
Real helpful.
She was given her peerage for supporting the Better Together campaign in 2014. Many of us in Scotland have been calling her out since then but were dismissed as bitter nats.

So glad to see her back in the news. Hope she's forced to pay back every penny of her pandemic profiteering.
Jail
I wonder if anyone in government has said that Barrowman and Mone had nothing to do with PPE Medpro, given that they knew they were deeply involved?
Dowden will be along in a minute to explain how everything was completely above board
Jail time?
This is going to be investigated in the Covid Inquiry, I hope. I'd like to see Mone answering questions as well as all those involved in the PPE fraud.
Sorry to burst your bubble but the Covid Inquiry will not lead to anything. It's just funnelling more millions of taxpayers' money to expensive lawyers, and in the end not a single one of these individuals will face any consequences.
I hope not...
That farce will no doubt find she did nothing wrong...and probably even that she should have been awarded a bigger contract.
She will supply a sick note
Doubt anything useful will come out of the enquiry. No lessons learnt, and the government continuing to lie through its teeth just as it has over the PPE debacle.
What for? I want her in jail, and her entire family made destitute.
This is like a banana republic level of corruption.
@sommerrog This country has been brought to its knees by the successive Tory governments and the level of corruption is even worse than that of a 'Banana Republic'.
When are they being sent to jail for corruption then
Exactly .
I keep saying to people "this is like the dying days of Major's government".
It's becoming clear to me I'm wrong.
It's 1000 times worse....
Wherever the profits have gone they need to be handed back to the Treasury.
It's safely stashed in some tax haven, don't worry.
Yes absolutely,but will it happen they are thieves .
It seems like, you only get a peerage if you are a crook or an entertainer. All that money straight into trust funds for her kids.... How they don't end up in jail is a complete crime. What set of laws for us and no laws for them.
The entertainers are simply a cover seeking to legitimise the insanity of peerages.

Totally agree ,nothing less and every penny returned .
Thank-you James for not letting this disgraceful issue, perpetrated at the expense of all those who suffered and those that died during the crisis, be swept under the carpet and be forgotten. Shame on her and those others involved.
First they forbade the NHS buyers to buy PPE, with the argument that they would outbid each other and get it too expensive, and then they gave out contracts through the VIP lane.
WONDER WHY ?????? 😮.
David Conn deserves a huge amount of credit for his investigative reporting on Mone's connection to PPE Medpro.
This scandal should be the prompt for Sunak, our disingenuous prime miniature, to call a general election.
Which is exactly why that won't happen. Sunak knows he just has to forcibly stop the boats to win the next election, which is, I'm afraid to say, exactly what will happen.
He’ll drag it out as long as the process allows. He has no honour.
The nation is in a state of emergency and you need ppe supplies urgently. Do you
A) Go to trusted industry suppliers
B) ask if any mates could cobble something together.
I am dumbfounded at this government.
We saw the pandemic as a threat to life and (Lady) Mone saw it as an opportunity to rob the public purse.
Just like : A TORY !!!!!!
Needs proper inquiry. Scandalous
An inquiry with the power to prosecute. Not some costly navel-gazing exercise.
Ah thanks for this update as I was wondering what was happening with Baroness Mone. Isn't it time that Michael Gove, who was in charge of the Cabinet Office during this period, is investigated. Talk about the power behind the throne.
Money, with interest.
Substantial fines.
Substantial prosecutions of ALL involved (including Government).
Change to the Governmental rules to prevent this crime EVER occurring again.
MedPro insists the gowns were up to standard. The question is....How did MedPro secure these items when they were not even a business entity until after the lockdown began and who were their suppliers? I wouldnt agreed to supply a new customer when my existing customers, with a track record for paying, were crying out for orders to be fulfilled. Yet MedPro were somehow able to agree terms with suppliers and jump the queue in order to fulfill an order for tens of thousands of items. So, what I'm saying is, it just doesn't fly.
Just people being unbelievably exploitative and greedy; totally sickening. Criminal behaviour.
These people are unbelievable! Morals of the gutter! This government has allowed this to happen unchecked with no accountability!!
Quite RIGHT ✅️ 👌 👏 👍 😌.
They will probably apologise & wander off into the sunset. No criminal prosecutions will probably take place.
And of course, not forgetting the pub landlord who became a multi millionaire from supplying PPE never having sourced more than plastic cups. What on earth is taking so long to recoup the money.
The profit margins they made is insanely immoral
Why isn’t she in jail?
Unfortunately all that will come of this is the old "lessons have been learned and measures put in place to help in the future" until the next scandal. Unless there are some actual consequences to those that lie, break the law or are just plain corrupt this cycle will continue.
Quite right ✅️.
sadly you are spot on.
"Governance and procurement procedures must be improved in relation to public funds". The NHS already have governance and procedures in place but they were bypassed by the UK Government in favour of their friends.
Sounds as though Michael Gove was heavily involved in the Michelle Mone scandal from his appearances on tv despite his denials of any impropriety.
Well done James .

Absolutely 💯 CRIMINAL !
Gigantic fraud but what will happen these are extremely rich people making money out of grief absolutely shameless
Needs addressing ( NOW ) !!!!!!
If a "benefits scrounger" fiddled like this there would be no hesitation in prosecution.
The emergency carers I've been recently assigned are rapidly ploughing through the mountains of that dodgily acquired PPE
There needs to be equal attention given to the attempts to cover up what looks like illegal activity. This is not a one off offence but a major cover up that has lasted years, no doubt breaking several laws in the process.

It’s been a disgrace from day 1. These people are so used to getting away with their snout in the trough they do it in plane sight. It’s about time she was remanded in custody along with the rest of them. Utterly corrupt , utterly shambolic.
Another thought , I wonder how much work and Taxpayers money has been used investigating the solicitor/Lawyer Moynihan in seeking some kind of mitigation ?
What does someone have to do to have their peerage removed?
You'd certainly think "Baroness" Mone would qualify.
As to her responsibilities to attend the House of Lords and vote on legislation, she is currently taking a leave of absence and before that... "Mone has previously been criticised for her low attendance in the Lords, with a Sunday National investigation discovering she only attended on four days over a six months period."
Well, I really don't think I'd bother going into work either if I was "gifted" £29 million.
There needs to be prison sentences and all money plus interest payed back.
So why did they deny (lie) their involvement at the outset?
I think Ms. Mone spent most of the £200 million on makeup, and then applied it with a trowel.
😂😂 and still managed to.look the way she does!!!

Hello peterfoley shortly after you mention Labour you receive two replies attacking Mr Starmer , I think many of the people having a go at Mr Starmer aren’t Labour supporters just Right Wing Hard Of Thinking types trying to undermine Mr Starmer , I am not happy with his seemingly abandonment of socialism, I do hope it’s his strategy to defeat the conservatives in the next Elections , something has to be done to rid the country of the present Government ,
@@colinstephenson5386 I am critical of Starmer because of his values, I'm a little old, was labour mayor of my town during the early 80's, then, Starmer would be conservative, because that is what he is.
Whilst we keep calling it the “VIP LANE” when the Conservatives are calling it a “High Priority Lane” it’s a get out for the slippery Tories they’ll say “Oh my mistake, I didn’t know you meant, that Lane.
Why did they admit they were involved now? Do they know that the ordure will hit the air conditionioning soon? That the game is, as one could say, up?
Can a person get de-baronessed?
Let's remember how they criminalised other companies and people selling PPE and COVID related items.
Getting the competition put the way so they could fleece everyone as much as possible.
Something we need to know is after denying their involvement and the Government refusing to properly acknowledge or become involved in the situation, why now are they willing to admit that they were up to their necks with the Government’s schemes ? Also what if any part did the Conservative Government have to do with this admission ? Seems rather strange this coming out of cover at this particular moment , People on the streets is a lifestyle, The increasingly large amounts of protesters for Palestine against the conservatives supporting Israel? Plus various other deflection’s cascading down on a repressed citizenship , I honestly believe this Government ain’t got a clue how to govern the country but their wizards at frightening the horses so to speak , what’s going on ? What are they up too ?

Yeah, and you ought to see her pad in the Isle of Man !
I would suggest that this admission indicates that a behind the scenes govt/HMRC/whichsoever Dept is responsible deal is being struck for repayment of a 'certain amount', a non apology apology and if done then no prosecution.
