Douglas Barrowman and Michelle Mone may have avoided tax on their £65m PPE profits

During the pandemic, Douglas Barrowman’s company, PPE Medpro, sold £200 million of PPE to the Government. It made £65m profit, which went into trusts benefiting Barrowman and Mone’s families. Most of the PPE was later ruled to breach sterility standards but, rather than repay the money, Barrowman put PPE Medpro into administration. New documents show […]

PPE Medpro made £200m but never filed full accounts. The law should change.

PPE Medpro is the company which provided £200m of PPE to the Government in dubious circumstances, of which £122m was faulty. Reports suggest it made £65m profit – but we can’t know for sure. Its finances are a mystery, because it was allowed to file only abridged accounts. Why? Because under UK law, PPE Medpro […]

Barrowman – more evidence of fraud: his seven mysterious “shadow companies”

Barrowman’s notorious PPE contract was in the name of PPE Medpro Limited, a UK company. The company has a “shadow” – there’s an identically named Isle of Man company controlled by Barrowman. This is highly unusual – and we’ve found six other Barrowman businesses with identically named offshore “shadow companies”. In one case, involving Barrowman’s […]

Douglas Barrowman made more than £100m selling disastrous tax avoidance schemes. New evidence shows the schemes defrauded both HMRC and his own clients.

Douglas Barrowman describes himself as an “entrepreneur”. The reality is that his businesses made a fortune mis-selling tax avoidance schemes on an industrial scale to people on modest incomes. The schemes all failed, leaving their clients with huge tax bills – many went bankrupt; at least two killed themselves. The clients were then directed to […]

Douglas Barrowman: 25 more companies with unlawfully hidden ownership

We previously reported that Douglas Barrowman’s companies had unlawfully hidden their ownership of PPE Medpro and the companies holding Barrowman’s Belgravia house. We can now identify 25 additional companies where Barrowman’s group has unlawfully failed to disclose the ownership, abetted by what appears to be a rogue company verification agent. (Update: the total is actually […]

Douglas Barrowman, PPE Medpro, the BVI loan and the struck-off solicitor

There are plenty of reasons to be suspicious of PPE Medpro. The way it obtained a contract to supply PPE to the Government during the pandemic. The oddity of there being both a UK company and Isle of Man company with the same name (something most businesses would try to avoid). The alleged uselessness of […]

Michelle Mone failed to declare her interest in an offshore trust

Last year, the Times and then The Daily Mirror reported that Douglas Barrowman and Michelle Mone owned (and sometimes lived in) a house in Belgravia which was held by an offshore trust. The Times has reported that Barrowman sold the house earlier this year for £19m. We’ve demonstrated that the trust and its trustees are […]

Douglas Barrowman unlawfully hid the ownership of another company

Douglas Barrowman and Michelle Mone appear to own a house in Belgravia through two BVI companies and a trust. They should all show Barrowman and/or Mone as the beneficial owner. They don’t. That’s a breach of company law – and potentially a criminal offence. UPDATE 22 December 2023: The Times has reported that Barrowman sold […]

Zahawi, Barrowman and Mone: why libel law rewards liars, and how we could change it.

Baroness Mone introduced a company, PPE Medpro, to the “VIP fast lane” for supplying PPE to the Government during the pandemic. There was copious evidence that she and/or her husband, Douglas Barrowman, ran the company. In December 2020, a lawyer instructed by Mone and Barrowman told the Guardian that “any suggestion of an association” between […]
