He is, of course, another from the Eton Mess. And seems to have a Cummings-like management style hiding behind a superficial polish & charm.
You can hear the shouting in a typo littered email cited in the claim
“masculine bravado” pigs at trough is bringing this country down

The group of companies is organisationally opaque and the lawsuit claims he described himself as a “relentlessly bossy fucker” and that he and his co founders created a hostile environment.
Gee. THAT’s the management style Johnson is fostering.
They certainly helped themselves

Independent accountants Albert Goodman reported (2018) that there were serious problems in the way the company was run. It’s structure was “opaque and complex” & the group’s directors took “substantial” management fees & “aggressive” dividends from the operating companies.
Those aggressive dividends to themselves made the events business “technically insolvent”.
But, of course, the Government handed over OUR MONEY to them.
I hope the @nationalaudituk @OBR_UK investigate whether it brought value for money as it seems to me to be the reverse.

Exactly how many “high net worth” individuals DID he introduce to the civil service? Or was this just more “trough money”.
I’d be expecting him to do the persuading and deliver for £1.4 mill, but apparently the difficult bit in Brexit Britain was left to civil servants.

In the 12 months to May 2018 Quintessentially UK Ltd, the holding company, recorded a £3.1 million loss & a £1.8 million fall in revenue. Of course they did.
They “couldn’t give the fucking thing (£260k corporation tax) to the Government”
The Government that paid them £1.4mill

It is the same Ben Elliot who, through another of his companies, worked with another of his cronies Lord Barker to help get the US sanctions lifted against Russian Oligarch’s Deripaska’s EN+ , imposed in part due to the Skripal affair on UK soil.
How “patriotic”.
How “patriotic”.
A bit more about Ben Elliot here from Private Eye, involving the same company, Hawthorne Associates, that lobbies on behalf of EN+. To assist foreign owned private health firms to buy into the UK’s adult social care market.
