Michelle Mone Scandal: Alleged Of Sending Racist Texts 

In December 2021, a financial consultant of Indian heritage accused Michelle Mone of sending him racist text messages after the two were involved in a 2019 Monaco yachting incident, which resulted in the death of a person.

He claimed that Michelle texted him and called him “a waste of a man’s white skin.”

A spokesperson for the British businesswoman and politician claimed she was not racist because she and her former husband had “built more than 15 schools in Africa in the past three years.”

Then came a message from her attorneys stating that she could not access her messages and had no “detailed memory” of them.

The House of Lords Commissioner for Standards was notified of the racism claims but decided not to look into it since Michelle made her comments in her “personal capacity,” not in her function as a member of the House of Lords.

Following a report of a racially aggravating malicious message, the Metropolitan Police declared in January 2022 that they were investigating the matter.

However, the matter appears to have come to a close after the Tory peer paid out £50,000 in August 2022 to settle the dispute.

Michelle Mone Is Also Accused Of Millions In Misappropriated Government Contracts

Michelle Mone has been the subject of yet another scandal. The Guardian revealed that Michelle and her children secretly received £29 million in profits from the PPE Medpro contract.

The transfer amount was reportedly made to an offshore trust from government PPE contracts, which Michelle had lobbied for during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The revelation was made in a series of investigative pieces from 2020 to 2022. The House of Lords Commissioner for Standards and Police further launched an investigation into these contracts in January 2022.

Leaked documents show that the lingerie tycoon is already under investigation for allegedly failing to declare an interest in PPE Medpro and lobbying for the firm to receive the massive contract.

PPE Medpro was given £200 million to supply surgical gowns and face masks to the NHS. However, the Tory peer maintained that she had no vested personal or financial interest in the Company.

And in a tweet, Lady Mone shared an image that said, “don’t believe everything you read or everything you think.”
