The UK government is set to co-chair a global accountability initiative @opengovpart (OGP) from Oct 2026. Last time (2013) Cameron declared a 'transparency revolution.' @Keir_Starmer's task is a transparency restoration. Piece for @CSWnews 👇 #OpenGov civilserviceworld.com/news/a…

🚨 Yesterday, the High Court ruled that PPE Medpro breached its contracts with the Government over PPE supplies. This money must be repaid in full and Michelle Mone should no longer sit in the House of Lords. This is the biggest procurement scandal in British history - and Labour will continue to work flat out to get our money back.

A great result (& great headlines) on #PPEMedpro but just the first step. 1️⃣ Will gov claw the money back & hold directors accountable? 2️⃣ Is this the start of a wider push, not the end? We need 12 more cases like this to recover the est. £1.5bn lost on substandard PPE.
