Description

Government lawyers are at the High Court demanding a massive payback from a company linked to Michelle Mone - £122 million pounds of taxpayers cash for faulty PPE that’s never been used. Almost thirty million pounds in profit from controversial deal, was put into a trust to benefit Baroness Mone and her children.

Separately, detectives from the National Crime Agency are investigating the Baroness and her tycoon husband Doug Barrowman for possible criminal charges - the couple deny any wrong doing. So in this episode broadcaster Martin Frizell and emeritus Professor of Criminology David Wilson examine the Mone case. For a change, this is alleged white collar crime, instead of the blue stuff!
