Once again Julie Meyer MBE is spamming her non GDPR compliant databases inviting folks to attend another one of her cracking events. It is quite amazing that Meyer has not been stripped of her MBE but I suppose that is a reflection of the lack of morality of the British political classes. Here latest spam is a lesson in humility and understatement. Enjoy…

The FCA Investigation into Wandisco (WAND) and its fraudulent sales continues. I wrote to it last week about the way that ex CEO Dave Richards MBE and CFO Erik Millar were given huge bonuses solely because of fraudulent sales figures. Now I have written again on the subject of payoffs.

The FCA Investigation into Wandisco (WAND) and its fraudulent sales continues. I do not expect it to affect the business going forward but I hope that it results in ex CEO Dave Richards MBE and CFO Erik Millar being thrown to the wolves if not into jail. I have dropped the FCA a note focusing on the issue of 2022 bonuses, as you can see below

Earlier I looked at the obscene bonuses awarded to ex Wandisco CEO and CFO David Richards MBE and Erik Millar in a year when they brought the company to the verge of bankruptcy. I still cannot see how this can be allowed. Now let’s move on to the stinking related party deals involving Richards which, in a way, are even more shocking.

Having boasted how putting his staff on a 4 day week had seen sales rocket, pompous Dave Richards MBE was forced to admit on March 9 that all of that sales growth at Wandisco (WAND) was bogus. Today the company confirm the scale of the fraud and Richard and CFO Erik Miller have walked the plank. Quote right: they were not involved in the fraud but the lack of oversight defies belief. Miller and Richards have gone because events suggest they are utterly incompetent.

A pilot scheme where workers got full pay for doing just 4 days a week was recently hailed by those organising it as a triumph and among those wheeled out to boast of its success was David Richards MBE of Wandisco (WAND). claiming his company’s sales had rocketed seven fold and productivity was up 25%. In fact…

Oh dear , oh dear, the woman awarded an MBE for services to business by Mr Vince Cable, the man who attacked we bears for being nasty to the king of the fraudsters Rob Terry, has shown, once again, what a horrible piece of work she is. I bring you three more employment tribunals concerning Drive Software, the insolvent Tesla meets Fitbit outfit controlled by Julie “Lingerie on Expenses” Meyer.

Somehow Vince Cable thought it would be a cracking idea to make Julie “lingerie on expenses” Meyer an MBE for services to business. A decade on, despite the FCA criminal enquiry, the collapse of her flagship Ariadne Capital, the UK and Maltese arrest warrants, and the problems with taxmen in the US and UK and numerous others to whom money is owed, this rotten Government still thinks she should keep that gong. Here is another reason why that is a mistake.

A week ago, Dave Richards – CEO of Wandisco (WAND) – was tweeting pictures of himself suited and booted, as well as his Mrs dressed up to the nines, as they headed to the residence of comrade Elizabeth Windsor. Today, he proudly waffles on about 2021 results from Wandisco. Only when you read the notes buried at the bottom, are you reminded of the dire realities. It could go bust, and will inevitably do a bailout placing – but is that enough? This is a train crash, and, rather than serving up nauseatingly misleading statements, Richards should admit to the facts.

Oh dear. Oh dear. Her lawyer and her barrister quit on Ms. Lingerie on Expenses eight days before her appeal against a contempt of court ruling and a 6 month jail sentence. Presumably, like all the 36 other firms of lawyers who have parted company with Julie Meyer MBE, they objected to not being paid. Julie did not appear in person in Court for reasons Lord Justice Males could only conclude were related to her desire to avoid a stretch in Holloway. His ruling is below in full.

I do comment about Julie Meyer’s latest tweet. Suicide is no joking matter and this act alone should see her lose her MBE. But most of this podcast is about events today at Optibiotix (OPTI) whose core businessis not worth MINUS £12 million as Mr Market implies. Ahead of the 24th March FYB! A pedant points out that at 14 mins in I say Optibiotix shareholders will get a distribution of 36-38%of Skinbiotherapeutics – clearly meant Probiotix. Apologies – long covid strikes again.

Oh dear. Oh dear. Drive Software was, according to Julie “Lingerie on Expenses” Meyer MBE, going to be “Tesla meets Fitbit”. In a series of exposes on this website we have shown that it is closer to Enron meets a chap waiting in the soup line for the down and outs. But things have got worse. Oh dear. Oh dear. The crash landing in tits up alley surely looms.

The following email was sent out indiscriminantly by a woman who has told the IRS that she is too poor to pay a seven figure tax bill dating back to 2001. Whatever… It is Julie “Lingerie on Expenses” Meyer with another offer I am sure you will find easy to refuse… the tax evading old MBE still under an FCA criminal investigation writes:

T’was the night before Christmas and it had been quite a while since the great entrepreneur had welcomed not one but two strange men into her bedroom. And she was not enjoying this experience and had a nagging feeling that things could only get worse. Perhaps if I hire another firm of lawyers I might get an injunction against these misogynists, thought Julie to herself but before she could take that much further the windows of her small rented Zurich apartment burst open….

‘twas the night before Christmas and Julie was back in her bed, alone once again in her rented Zurich flat, after the departure of the ghostly, and no doubt misogynist, figure. But once again sleep eluded the great businesswoman, devout Christian and MBE.

‘twas the night before Christmas and Julie Meyer was hanging up some particularly expensive stockings, naturally bought on expenses from her Ariadne days, in the mock fireplace of her rented Zurich apartment. “I know that I have been a good girl this year and if there is nothing in there in the morning that just shows that Santa is just a horrid old misogynist like the rest of them” muttered Julie to herself.

As I revealed HERE with a letter from the FCA, it is still conducting a criminal investigation into whether Julie Meyer MBE illegally used client funds. My source who is assisting with that investigation tells me that it is still live although, for reasons you may speculate about a find upstanding Member of the British Empire is slowing things down by refusing to co-operate. But this is not the only enquiry into Lingerie on Expenses.

For Ms Lingerie on Expenses MBE things go from bad to worse. As the FCA Criminal Investigation into her alleged misuse of client funds cranks up, as demonstrated HERE, at Drive Software, the company she owns and claimed was Tesla meets Fitbit, it looks ever bleaker with a crash landing in tits up alley now only a matter of time.

Thanks to Winnileaks I have a dynamite letter from the FCA to one of Julie Meyer’s 32 unpaid, and thus ex, lawyers confirming what is an ongoing criminal investigation. But first, how did she get her MBE? Answer: she had political friends including the late Paddy Pantsdown and Liam Fox MP. Someone high up nominated her. Then, as her UK flagship Ariadne Capital collapsed into administration, she fled to Malta where she also had political pals. That was until the criminal charges were filed and she ran out of other folks’ cash. Then it was Switzerland and Greece where again leading politicians have fallen for her charms. But do they know about the UK criminal investigation?

Well here it is folks, the court order in the case of Julie Meyer MBE vs heroic PR man Henry Gewanter. As tends to be the way in matters of money, Ms Lingerie on Expenses is the defendant. You will note what the court says about the behaviour of Ms Meyer, the quantum of costs, interests and damages awarded against her and also that the deadline was paying was 8 December. Has she paid? Oddly no. Leopards do not change their spots and there is more chance of Jeremy Corbyn converting to Judaism and asking to join the Israeli Army than there is of Julie actually obeying the court. Enjoy.

It is all too predictable. The efforts of Julie “Lingerie on expenses” Meyer MBE to avoid paying her bills are truly superhuman as 31 out of pocket firms of lawyers and many others will testify. And thus we come to the case of heroic PR man Henry Gewanter vs Ms. Lingerie on Expenses. Our hero Henry wants to get paid for work done almost three years ago.

Whatever you say darling. But the register of CCJ's suggests something very different. Julie Meyer MBE is now on a hat-trick. Of course she also owes the HMRC, IRS, Barclays Bank and others vast amounts of cash but now it seems that another person, owed, £10,585 has been forced to seek a County Court Judgement against her as you can see below.

I have today written to the HMRC as it appears that Julie “Lingerie on expenses” Meyer MBE may owe it around £200,000 in unpaid tax. I say “may”, I hope – given the parlous state of the UK’s finances – that it checks this out to see if it indeed this is money owing. It is all to do with her apartment in London.
Of course, Ms sex toys on expenses, already has unpaid tax due

On May 8 2017 Julie "Lingerie on Expenses" Meyer MBE emailed her dwindling band of staff at Ariadne Capital Limited (now in administration). The devout Christian clearly learned a lot when getting her MBA at INSEAD about how to motivate workers - treat 'em mean and keep ;em keen. Don't pay their wages, insult them and praise yourself. No wonder sad old Vince Cable thought Julie was such a role model for entrepreneurs. The email has now fallen into the hands of Winnileaks....

With the Maltese Police desperate to locate Julie Meyer MBE as she avoids criminal charges, with the SFO, MFSA and FCA running enquiries not to mention investigations by the tax authorities into evasion in the US, UK and Malta you could have forgiven Ms Lingerie on Expenses for going to ground. But she has been spotted in London. Quck – if you are one of the many to whom she owes money and want to serve her hurry down to the Royal Institution, Mayfair, W1S 4BS. Meyer has been spotted!

As you may remember the lyin’, tax evading fraudster Julie “lingerie on expenses” Meyer MBE, currently avoiding the Police in Malta where she faces criminal charges, has tried to rebrand by dropping references to Ariadne ( her main ponzi empire) and promoting the name of Viva Capital LLP. Uh Oh – a new problemo has emerged. Oh dear Julie…it never rains…..

Facing a raft of criminal charges for not paying her employees, Julie “lingerie on expenses” Meyer MBE has now refused to attend five court hearings and indeed has fled the island for good to avoid the Police who are now charged by the Courts with locating her.

When you are wanted by the rozzers in Malta on criminal charges,, being pursued by a range of banks and others over unpaid debts, being investigated by the FCA, MFSA, SFO, Action Fraud, IRS, HMRC and others, does theft of property from an administrator really matter? Well, clearly not for Julie “lingerie on expenses” Meyer MBE.

I note that Julie Meyer is still keen to tout herself as a guest speaker as you can see below. But she now appears keen to distance herself from the Ariadne name, something she has been pushing for a decade and a half. Does she think Ariadne has toxic associations? She now links herself to her private company Viva Capital - the one that has not filed accounts for 2016, 17 and 18 and whose last accounts were clearly bogus but showed cash of nil. Whatever...

Wanted by the police in Malta on criminal charges, under investigation by the HMRC, FCA, MSFA, SFO, IRS and the UK Police you would have thought Julie "lingerie on expenses" Meyer MBE would stop telling blatant lies in order to somehow part folks from their wealth.

As each day goes by we discover yet another institution to whom Julie Meyer MBE owes money. Already we have identified the IRS,HMRC and two banks. Thanks to Winnileaks here, below, is a third, HSBC. One wonder if any of her creditors know about all the others and if that is going to make one especially jumpy and demand immediate repayment rather than accepting a payment plan? that could be awkward. Meanwhile are her various creditors happy that she has retained uber expensive lawyer Julian Pike of Farrar & Co to act for her in a personal as well as a corporate capacity?

Oh dear, oh dear, another day and another set of documents arrives at Winnileaks. Yesterday we showed how devout Christian Julie "more lingerie on expenses" Meyer MBE was in deep merde with the US taxman, the IRS and had also committed a criminal offence in lying to the IRS by not declaring a source of income. Today we expose Ms Meyer's equally worrying problems with the British taxman. She may have a letter from the Queen and an MBE but she has been depriving Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs of money that is rightfully its. Naughty, naughty.

Julie Meyer MBE has always conveyed the impression of being stinking rich. Those expensive dresses ( charged to expenses), the uber expensive haircuts and lingerie (both charged to expenses) and her luxury London flat (where her employer also paid the rent) it was all part of a carefully manicured image. But as the IRS and HMRC pursue her for vast amounts of unpaid tax she is pleading poverty. Don't laugh - might Julie be telling the truth. Okay we don't know where the cash from her undeclared ( to the IRS) Swiss gig goes but she has told the IRS that she has only £500 in her bank account. There are however more accounts as Winnileaks helps me reveal below...

I am not claiming that more than £600,000 paid to Julie Meyer's sans revenue Entrepreneur Country Global by the HMRC was paid in error but I have today explained to the taxman why it should investigate the possibility and provided it with the numbers. And it has now said that it will look into the matter. Oh dear.. first Malta demands she returns to face criminal charges and now this.. a bad day for the devout Christian but at least if the worst happens and the cash has to be returned, Ms Meyer can take comfort from the words of Acts 20:30 (King James Version Natch)

I just love the way that Julie Meyer MBE has a book about the war criminal Tony Blair displayed prominently behind her as she records her latest video.

Ex Dragon's Den star Julie Meyer MBE has always struck me as a massive self publicist and an AI bullshitter. Her UK firm Ariadne Capital was put into administration on December 15 but Meyer has published a video (below) claiming that this was all planned and something "every entrepreneur has to do." Hmmm, it is worth having a butchers at La Meyer's track record and also Ariadne's accounts.
