Tory peer Michelle Mone was used as a “big gun” in contract negotiations between PPE Medpro and the Government, a High Court judge has said.
Mrs Justice Cockerill ruled on Wednesday that the firm, a consortium led by Baroness Mone’s husband, businessman Doug Barrowman, must repay the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) more than £121 million for breaching a contract for 25 million surgical gowns during the Covid-19 pandemic.
