    If you genuinely think fraud/corruption is evident, DO something about it. Easy to say "it wouldn't make any difference" but at least if you do it, when nothing happens you can say you tried.

    "Now it has emerged that PestFix also recalled the FFP2 masks that the government had purchased – “because they only meet the requirements of an FFP1 mask”. Two of the three types of mask supplied by PestFix turned out to be faulty."

    Should have put Lord SurAlan in charge of this. The core to his business success is/was doing deals to buy shed-loads of cheap stuff overseas.

    A friend of mine did a procurement consulting gig for a public sector body (I can't remember if it was central govt.) The scope included reviewing a long list of various product categories and the conclusion was that for a large proportion of commoditised products, it wasn't even worth looking else where, just go direct to Amazon.

    Write your MP and/or contact any news outlets you can find with the precise details. Never know, it might at least raise an awkward question for someone.

    Every time I see the thread title pop up I keep thinking it's a website about crisps...

    Edit: Just clicked the CoHo link. They're all from around where I grew up There's a chance we all went to the same school as the lads are the same age as my brother and I.

    Can't say I recognise them though

    Or cut out Amazon and buy direct from MF - only 16x of the RRP!

    Presumably they will be charging the government several times the going rate for PPE. You couldn't make this up.

    I feel like giving them a call and asking if they do ventilators.

    They can and they do, around 1000%.
