A CONSERVATIVE peer who advised the Government during the coronavirus pandemic helped a company secure PPE contracts worth £50 million after he was introduced to the firm by a fellow Tory peer.
Andrew Feldman, a former Conservative party chair, referred the company SG Recruitment to the “VIP lane” which gave priority to firms which were politically connected following the introduction by Lord Chadlington, a Tory peer for 26 years.
Chadlington, whose name is Peter Selwyn Gummer, was a director and shareholder of its parent company, Summer Group Holdings, which is registered in Jersey.
