Labour calls for investigation into home secretary over letter urging government to buy face masks
Labour has accused Priti Patel of a “flagrant breach” of the ministerial code by lobbying Michael Gove over a £20m deal.
In a letter, signed by the deputy Labour leader Angela Rayner and shadow home secretary Nick Thomas-Symonds, the party urged the cabinet secretary Simon Case to investigate the home secretary over alleged efforts to sway the award of a contract.
