Your thread title and post are a tad cryptic and the topic deserves wider coverage. Just to spell it out for the slow ones like me, this is the UK government awarding dodgy contracts for PPE to shadowy companies. Stinks of corruption.

Thing is, the corruption isn't the bigger part of this- yes it's obviously reprehensible and in saner times would have threatened to bring a government down. But it didn't just mean giving public money to their mates, far worse it meant not delivering the items which were so desperately needed, which will have literally killed people.
Just paying over the odds to a crony but still getting the goods would be bad enough but what they did here was much worse.
