Half-man, half maggot Nathan Fearon must be running out of stooges. This serial charity conman is banned from running companies until 2015 so lets others front his bogus “good cause” publications as they rip-off well-meaning advertisers. One such accomplice, was Adrian Reid, who’s now been banned from company directorships for 11 years and has got around this, by using his mum’s name on a recent scam.

Stott’s now been banned from acting as a company director for six years and has been forced to resign from two companies – City Stop UK Ltd and Circular Impression Limited. ...
