Can you just imagine this story if Labour had spaffed this money of dough up the wall. The Murdochs, Rothermere's and Barclays would be running it for weeks
Remember when the governments "VIP Lane" delivered loads of out of spec PPE
Well government have now appointed two commercial operators to burn £4 billion of it.

So many stories of approved NHS vendors with a history of supplying PPE that couldn't even get a telephone call or email returned
Instead we had companies with minimal net worth and in unrelated businesses landing contracts of tens of millions.
At best negligent, at worse corrupt
Government have wasted £9.9 billion on PPE

£673 million on PPE “not suitable for any use”
£2,581 million on PPE “not suitable for use in the NHS”
£4.7 billion...
Always thought the expenses scandal was a storm of a teacup, but this is in another league.
It should be the front pages day after day, hundreds of millions involved.
Just imagine if a Labour government presided over this?
