Episode notes
Scale Of The Failed Gown Shipment
- PPE MedPro shipped 25 million gowns that failed sterility tests and were rejected as unusable by inspectors.
- The discovery framed the gowns as potential criminal fraud evidence rather than life-saving kit.
Honeymoon Interruption By Reporter
- Michelle is on a five-star Maldives honeymoon when her PA tells her David Conn is asking about PPE MedPro links.
- She rings her lawyer and threatens to sue, showing immediate legal defensiveness while abroad.
Referral Versus Registered Interest Conflict
- Leaked documents later showed Baroness Mone had referred PPE MedPro through the VIP lane, contradicting her denials.
- That referral raised conflict-of-interest questions because peers must declare such interests publicly.
