Dyson will no longer be supplying ventilators to the NHS to treat coronavirus patients after being told by the government their services were no longer required.

The company’s founder, Sir James Dyson, said the company had already spent around £20m on the project but would not be seeking any public money to cover its costs, after being asked to stand down.
