British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has said he was “shocked” by allegations that a Conservative peer has profited from COVID-19 contracts awarded during the pandemic.
Baroness Michele Mone took a leave of absence from the House of Lords on Dec. 6 after being accused of having profited personally from PPE Medpro, a firm which won contracts worth £200 million ($244 million) in personal protective equipment (PPE).
