I'm coming up on @TimesRadio to discuss the story
This may not look like it on the surface, but this is data journalism. Use of unlimited companies have come come up a couple of times recently in reports, so I decided just to go through the overall list and see who else I could find using them.
Using a programme in R, I matched a copy of the Companies House database to the company ownership register, and filtered it to just unlimited entities. Then spent some time going through the owners on the list, and spotted this story.
Others who own these unlimited companies include David Cameron, the former prime minister embroiled in a lobbying scandal, and Andrew Mills, a former government adviser who brokered a bungled ÂŁ250 million PPE deal.
Cameron converted his company to unlimited status a fortnight ago amid the Greensill saga and Mills converted his personal consultancy to unlimited status last October.
