YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJames O'Brien hears from Henry Riley, who runs through his exclusive story that Rishi Sunak's wife's firm, Infosys, received a 50% increase in public sector invoices in 2023.
This represents the 'best ever' year for the firm, helped by local government spending on Infosys' services surging by 40%.
Overall, the £7.029 million total in public sector invoices includes over £250,000 from the Government Property Agency (GPA), as well as a similar amount from the Care Quality Commission (£270,000) – while the London Borough of Brent totalled over £2 million in invoices with Infosys.
Within these invoices, Infosys were given contracts for “Information Communication Technology” (£1.5 million), “Consultant fees” (£1.1 million) as well as “IT Consultancy” (£868,000) across various levels of government.
In response to this, Labour’s Jonathan Ashworth told LBC: “taxpayers will want to have serious questions answered as to how this firm, with its close links to Rishi Sunak directly, appears to be cashing in."
