Ofqual appointed Public First
Rachel Wolfe is a partner . She cowrote 2019 Conservative Manifesto . She was founding Director of New Schools Network .
So what was the particular communications expertise she could provide that Ofqual had to appoint her company without tender

James Frayne is also partner in Public First

Which is an outrage . But on top of that Public First been disaster
