Baroness Michelle Mone apologised after denying her links to the PPE Medpro firm which was awarded contracts worth more than £200m to supply personal protective equipment after she recommended it to ministers.
The Conservative peer was questioned by the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg on Sunday (17 December) on the controversy surrounding the firm, which is being investigated by the National Crime Agency (NCA).
“I wasn’t trying to pull the wool over anyone’s eyes. I regret and I’m sorry for not saying straight out ‘yes I am involved’,” Lady Mone said.
