Chest Rockwell Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 (edited) http://www.worcesternews.co.uk/news/8213515.Top_boss_to_face_court/?ref=mr Ahh...Premier Places of Worcester! Heard a lot about this mob during the boom times...there was even a you tube vid that accused them of bullying other Estate Agent firms? Anyway, last year Brandon was arrested (aka Branston as he is always in a pickle) and questioned by the Serious Economic Fraud Police (or something like that, they had a East German sort of commie ring to their squad's name). Shortly after that he sold his Lettings agency (was an Estate Agent as well as lettings up until 2008) to the company accountant...who is also to be busted for fraud too? Up until last year, the Worcester News was always licking this guy's @rse! How the mighty fall...eh?

Chest Rockwell Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 What is the fraud about? Initial articles mentioned money laundering and money going missing the company accounts. As for the 'fraud' well that is a new one in the story! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric pebble Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 What is the fraud about? Doubtless - they were pushing LIAR LOANS.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chest Rockwell Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 Doubtless - they were pushing LIAR LOANS.... they did have an inhouse 'mortgage specialist'...I do remember that! He vanished along with the other pwoperty pushers during 2008! Most of them went from driving flash cars to the dole within a week after Lehmans went bust! All of them were there on a Self Employed basis...so when Branston told them to F*ck off they had no comeback! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh - it baffles me as to HOW millions and millions of people manage at all in this Godforsaken "country"..... Low wages, ASTRONOMICAL housing costs, council tax, petrol, food... etc etc. HOW do people do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
