The husband of Baroness Mone said his family have been “treated as a punchbag” for the “lamentable failures” by ministers when procuring personal protective equipment (PPE) during the pandemic.
In a statement published by Lady Mone on X, formerly Twitter, Doug Barrowman said it “suits the agenda” of the UK Government to “scapegoat” him and his wife for their part in supplying items designed to protect against coronavirus infection through the firm PPE Medpro.
Lady Mone has admitted she lied when she denied having connections to the company, a consortium led by her husband, which was awarded contracts worth more than £200 million to supply gowns and face masks.
The lingerie entrepreneur stands to benefit from its £60 million in profits that have been placed into a trust by her husband.
TalkTV’s Kevin O’Sullivan and Alex Phillips discuss the story with GP and broadcaster Dr Renée Hoenderkamp.
