EXCLUSIVE: A website run by newly elected Conservative MP Jamie Wallis promoted a “sugar daddy” service offering students financial relationships with wealthy “sponsors”

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/ja…
Sugar Daddy asked potential clients:

“Are you a student, a single parent or just short of money? 1000s of wealthy executives, international businessmen and diplomats are eager to sponsor you. Typical sponsorship can be £2,000 - £25,000 per year.”

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/ja…
Sugar Daddy is listed as one of four “recommended resources” on Clean-Break.co.uk, a trading title for Jamie Wallis' company Quickie Divorce Limited

Wallis resigned from Quickie Divorce Limited when he became an MP last month

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/ja…
Jamie Wallis MP's Clean Break website says:

“Sugar Daddy has been a trusted introduction service for over 10 years. Sugar Daddy can introduce you to your very own sugar daddy and solve your money worries"

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/ja…
Jamie Wallis told BuzzFeed News he had nothing to do with the Sugar Daddy site

We then asked him why his Clean Break site had recommended it

and noted Sugar Daddy was owned by a former director of his firm Quickie Divorce Ltd

Wallis stopped replying

NEW: Newly elected Conservative MP Jamie Wallis can be revealed as the man behind a network of controversial companies that his local council says have been subject to hundreds of Trading Standards complaints

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/ja…
New Bridgend MP Jamie Wallis has resigned as a director of at least seven companies that run various online services since the election

He says Bridgend council records showing hundreds of Trading Standards complaints against the firms are "nonsense"

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/ja…
In 2011, the Ministry of Justice blocked Wallis’ firm Action Direct, which represented people making claims at employment tribunals, from taking on new clients

One customer complained to the press about receiving a £400 bill despite no work being done

This is going to be one of the most complex Twitter threads I have ever attempted

But the subject is important

When Johnson brings a framework of a Brexit Deal to the Commons on 19 Oct, how will MPs vote?

1/x
The idea of the thread is to crowd source intelligence on how MPs are going to vote, and see if that adds up to a majority

This is for all of our understanding

Please RT widely, and respond honestly. If you have no idea how a MP will likely vote, please skip to the next

2/x
In this thread there are 58 MPs listed

These are the MPs - 20 independents, 16 Labour, 22 Tories - on whom a Deal (or not) will hinge
