More #Brexit misinformation, with added Russian connection, the spin is just brilliant, here's the jump:

So Bernie has a mate, Lance "humble fishmonger" Forman telling us how "real family businesses" are pro brexit.....

Good yeah?

...but Lance Anisfeld (his real name) is a dapper, silver salmon-shaped cufflink wearing, multiple business owner working from a fish shaped building:

Forman & Field online, Forman's (Pricey) Restaurant, Forman’s Fish Island (Events Venue) and Forman’s Smokehouse (Art) Gallery.

...not quite comparable to the average family business is it?

...and that's not all, further investigation reveals that far from a dedicated family businessman, he was a special adviser in the early 1990s to Peter Lilley, when he was a minister at the DTI.

...but wait...

...he was also a consultant at Price Waterhouse Coopers...and here's the REALLY interesting bit...whilst at the 2nd largest professional services firm in the world, he specialised in privatising former Soviet state enterprises in eastern Europe.

Oligarchy much?

to cap it off..

Lance, friend to Russian utilities businessmen is alleged to have some Ukrainian property, but is cagey about it, describing himself as a "consultant".

MORE #Brexit #Russia links?

Maybe, Maybe not, but....

Humble fisher-monger and "real" family businessman he is NOT!
