LABOUR called for an investigation into David Cameron today following reports he met Treasury officials to lobby for Greensill Capital to access coronavirus business loans. 

The former Tory PM had tried to increase the specialist bank’s access to government-backed Covid-19 emergency loan schemes, according to the Financial Times.

Greensill Capital, a key backer of Liberty Steel, which employs 5,000 people in 12 plants across Britain, went into administration last week.
