Dominic Raab says Liz Truss wearing mask ‘wouldn’t have made a difference’
Dominic Raab has suggested that Liz Truss wearing a mask hours before testing positive for Covid-19 “would not have made a difference”.
The foreign secretary sat maskless alongside fellow MPs in the House of Commons and later attended a Tory party meeting, hours before confirming she had tested positive on Monday evening.
When asked on Times Radio if he wishes Ms Truss had just “stuck a mask on” following the news, Mr Raab suggested that wouldn’t have mattered.
“I’m not sure that would have made a different, the rules have been followed clearly,” he said.
