High Court finds UK government acted unlawfully over contract

London's High Court has found Britain's government acted unlawfully when it gave a contract to a public relations firm which local media said was run by friends of Prime Minister Boris Johnson's former chief adviser, Dominic Cummings.

The court agreed with a complaint that the awarding of the contract "gave rise to apparent bias and was unlawful" (Writing by William Schomberg Editing by Estelle Shirbon)
