2019 : "THE DISASTER CAPITALISM CLUB: PART 2
Sir Paul Marshall and Michael Gove"
bylinetimes.com/2019/03/18/the…

"He’s head of one of the biggest hedge funds in Europe, a major contributor to the official Vote Leave campaign, and – along with Crispin Odey – one of the largest beneficiaries of the post-Brexit chaos: but Sir Paul Marshall is more than that."

I'll say 🙄

"Unlike his co-founder, Ian Wace, who donated to the ‘Better In’ campaign, Marshall had a strategic role in persuading the then Justice Minister, Michael Gove, to betray his long-term friend David Cameron and lead the official campaign to leave the European Union"

Yah, right 🙄

So, Wace was IN

and business partner

Marshall was OUT

🤔

Reminds me of another company with a pair of co-founders at opposite ends of the political spectrum...

Palantir

Alex Karp - the Leftie
Peter Thiel - Trump

But I digress..

"According to the Sunday Times, Gove “finally made up his mind to back Brexit on Thursday, 18 February, after calling Paul Marshall, a hedge fund manager he had got to know through his chairmanship of the #Ark chain of academy schools”."

"Of all the political decisions around the EU referendum, Paul Marshall’s impact on Gove is one of the most precipitate and important. Gove’s defection to Vote Leave persuaded his old Oxford University college friend, Boris Johnson, to join him"

🤔Maybe

"Marshall went on to be a major donor to, and a major beneficiary of, the cataclysmic victory of the Gove and Johnson campaign."

"Before founding Marshall Wace in 1997, Sir Paul Marshall was a director of the giant Blackrock company, which has now nearly $6 trillion dollars of assets under management."

"He soon became director of the Hedge Fund Standards Board in 2008 and was joined by another hedge fund giant, Sir Michael Hintze."

Hintze 🤔

"Like Crispin Odey, both Marshall & Hintze donated to Gove’s Vote Leave campaign

both used their hedge funds to ‘short’ on the result of the Brexit referendum

"Soon after Brexit, Marshall wrote in the Financial Times about how British trade would benefit by leaving the EU. He then became a commentator on Brexit Central and helped fund the controversial Legatum Institute." 👈

"Marshall also bankrolled the Unherd news website [with Theodore Agnew] , which was originally edited by another columnist at Murdoch’s daily The Times – Tim Montgomerie."

"Before his role in Brexit, Sir Paul Marshall had a background in the Liberal Democrat party and once stood as a candidate.

Along with David Laws, he was the editor of the influential 2004 Orange Book – a reorientation of Liberal Democrat policy which argued for more outsourcing

Law's partner, James Lundie, worked at lobbying firm, Edelman

"Edelman has a history of establishing astroturf campaigns (seemingly grassroots groups that are fronts for industry) for its clients"

"The Orange Book group helped pave the way to the Coalition Government led by David Cameron as Prime Minister and Nick Clegg as his deputy, which lasted from 2010-2015."

"It was during the Coalition Government, when Gove was appointed Education Minister, that he formed a friendship w Marshall. Gove’s ministry heavily funded Marshall’s #ARK (‘Absolute Return for Kids’) Academies network of over 34 schools and recruited him to the MoE’s board."

"Sir Paul Marshall also funded the think-tank under whose aegis the modified “PF2” private finance initiative was launched in 2013

In 2015, Carillion, was awarded a £187 million contract to build and run schools in the Midlands. "

"..Marshall Wace has also set up a fund in Dublin to avoid the impact of crashing out of the EU. "
