An Update on Michelle Mone.

Recently, it has emerged that Baroness Michelle Mone is facing a criminal investigation concerning the PPE Medpro scandal. According to a report in The Guardian, Mone and her husband, businessman Douglas Barrowman, are facing allegations of conspiracy to defraud, fraud by false representation, and bribery brought by the National Crime Agency (NCA), Britain’s version of the FBI. For the last several years, Mone and Barrowman have denied any involvement in profiting off the lucrative government contracts awarded to PPE Medpro. According to an article in the BBC, Mone regrets not informing the public of her role in the company. However, she made this apology in a documentary funded by PPE Medpro. This all seems dodgy to me, and I don’t see the NCA putting much stock in it, either.
