precisely, but I think that's just one aspect and I imagine it'll never get properly analysed given any award 'interference' was likely conducted in secret over whatsapp with conversations conveniently 'lost' or 'forgotten'. demonstrated by the likes of Rishi, who on the one hand claimed that any taxpayer spend across his desk is properly assessed on value to the taxpayer (Rwanda) suggesting he's a man of detail, yet to 30+ questions from the Covid committee answered with an 'unable to recollect'.
you then have a stream of contracts given under the test and trace programme (£30bn spend) with seemingly no regard to ensuring VFM or protecting taxpayers from out of market profit margins. Same in the ppe supply hence the Medpro scandal and intimations it applies more widely in that whole supply.
