Tory Covid contracts worth £15bn had corruption ‘red flags’
https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/sep/09/tory-covid-contracts-worth-15bn-had-corruption-red-flags-study-finds
The review of more than 5,000 contracts across 400 public bodies identifies 135 high-risk contracts with a value of £15.3bn where investigation is merited due to the identification of corruption red flags, which include a lack of competition, delays or failure to release information on procurement, and conflicts of interest in the award of contracts.
Business as usual then.
