Expecting their 'best' side, perhaps? LOL
See that the Director Corporate Communications is in there too :)
 
hehe.. that William Batchelor looks a real cad... i bet he's got some stories to tell :eek:
 
Wonder if they have permission from the copyright holders to reproduce some of those pics.
 
Quite a few pics of William Batchelor in there... he was jailed last week, caught attempting to flee the UK.

*edit* oops it actually says that in the photo information anyway!

"has been jailed for four years for masterminding a £673,000 VAT fraud."

I know strictly speaking the word mastermind fits here. But it just doesn't seem the right word to use when describing £673,000 worth of fraud, some of the others on there are talking about £15million pounds.

Makes it seem like chump change

Perhaps he was a clever criminal and thats all they could charge him with...

Do love the pictures of him with the convertible mercedes and champagne!
 
No mastermind if you get caught! VAT fraud is a non-extraditable offence in Switzerland...
1. Commit carousel fraud
2. Make a £10-100mil in a few months
3. Flee.
4. Eat chocolate and ski.

£176m in one case!

Though curiously, they don't have any of the directors of Vodafone in their gallery, who shaved £6bn off their tax bill.

Maybe because they didn't commit fraud?

Whilst HMRC are exempt from breach of copyright, you and TP aren't; unless you are publishing the photos as part of a relevant article.

You might want to delete the pics!

Edit, addy on bit now I've looked at the links:

...especially as The JC are renown for nicking images with complete disregard of ownership.
