She accused the Prime Minister of possibly standing to profit from the Moderna Covid vaccine.<\/p>\n

But she was accused of having \u201cquite the brass neck\u201d in her weekend bid to garner sympathy.<\/p>\n

And Conservative peer Baroness Altmann demanded Baroness Mone apologise to Mr Sunak, saying: \u201cI\u2019m gobsmacked. She has admitted not telling the truth. Why would she criticise the PM?\u201d<\/p>\n

The National Crime Agency is probing PPE Medpro, the firm Lady Mone\u2019s husband Doug Barrowman was involved with, after Covid deals soured.<\/p>\n

Earlier yesterday Mr Sunak said: \u201cThe Government takes these things incredibly seriously, which is why we\u2019re pursuing legal action against the company.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s how seriously I take it and the Government takes it.\u201d Baroness Mone tweeted: \u201cWhat is Rishi Sunak talking about? I was honest with the Cabinet Office, the Government and the NHS in my dealings with them. They all knew about my involvement.\u201d<\/p>\n

She later posted: \u201cDoes Rishi Sunak stand to profit from the Moderna Covid vaccine during the pandemic? He might want to take that \u2018incredibly \u00adseriously\u2019 before pointing fingers to save his own skin!\u201d Moderna is reportedly one of the investments held by the hedge fund Mr Sunak co-founded before becoming an MP.<\/p>\n

But last night a former government minister said: \u201cMone has quite the brass neck to expect sympathy. Her behaviour during theAgency is investigating.\u201d<\/p>\n
