Investigation of related party interests. Breaches identified; multiple identities and failure to declare interests
Part 4. Toby Young and British Friends of Israel Limited
Executive Summary
This report investigates the directorship and related party interests of Toby Daniel Moorsom Young in British Friends of Israel Limited, alongside directors Francis Hoar, Janet MacVarish, Judith Allison Pearson, and Ian Richard Guy Rons. The focus is on potential irregularities, synthetic identity concerns, and compliance issues in their corporate appointments.
Key Findings:
Multiple Directorships:
Toby Young and other directors hold overlapping directorships, raising concerns about transparency and conflicts of interest.
Synthetic Identity Concerns:
Multiple identities associated with Francis Hoar, Janet MacVarish, Judith Pearson, and Ian Rons suggest possible synthetic identity fraud, compromising regulatory compliance.
Compliance Issues:
Practices of using multiple identities and overlapping directorships violate Section 1082 of the Companies Act 2006, hindering effective governance and financial transparency.
Dissolved Companies and Missing Accounts:
Several dissolved companies linked to these directors failed to submit accounts, indicating potential breaches of legal requirements and raising further concerns about financial misconduct.
Recommendations:
Detailed Investigation:
Investigate connections and transactions involving these directors for illegal activities or conflicts of interest, and ensure all dissolved companies' financials are reviewed for compliance.
Regulatory Engagement:
Collaborate with regulatory bodies for appropriate enforcement actions and address any breaches of the Companies Act 2006.
Enhanced Compliance:
Implement stronger compliance measures and identity verification processes within Companies House to prevent synthetic identity fraud and ensure transparency.
Addressing these issues is essential for maintaining corporate governance integrity, regulatory compliance, and financial transparency.

Breaches Identified:
Lack of Declaration of Directorships: The website does not disclose the directorships held by Toby Young and other directors, constituting multiple breaches of the Companies Act 2006. This omission fails to provide transparency regarding the roles of the directors within British Friends of Israel Limited.
Roles Listed as Organisers Only: The directors are listed merely as organisers without specifying their official roles as directors of the company. This misrepresentation further breaches the Companies Act requirements for transparency and accuracy.
Additional Observations:
Non-Director Organisers: Toby Guise and Emma Webb are listed as organisers but are not directors of the company. This distinction should be clarified to avoid confusion about their roles and responsibilities.
Further Analysis Required
A more detailed examination of the directors and organisers, including potential other interests and the possibility of multiple identities, is necessary to ensure full compliance with legal and regulatory standards. This will help in assessing any conflicts of interest and maintaining the integrity of British Friends of Israel Limited's governance.
Conclusion
The analysis of British Friends of Israel Limited reveals significant compliance issues, primarily related to the non-disclosure of directorships by the directors on the company's website. These breaches of the Companies Act 2006 highlight the need for improved transparency and adherence to regulatory requirements. Further investigation into the backgrounds and additional appointments of the directors is recommended to ensure that all legal obligations are met and that the company operates with the highest standards of governance and accountability.

Testing for multiple identities
1. Laura Catherine DODSWORTH
A search on this name, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search?q=Laura+Catherine+DODSWORTH, returns two identities with this name and date of birth, January 1973 (see image below):

Conclusion:
Laura Catherine Dodsworth, born January 1973, with occupation listed as a photographer, appears under two separate identities:
One associated with the address 302 The Greenway, Epsom, Surrey, KT18 7JF
Another associated with the address 7 Bell Yard, London, England, WC2A 2JR
Laura Catherine Dodsworth has registered multiple identities in Companies House, which breaches Section 1082 of the Companies Act 2006. This compromise affects audits and Know Your Customer (KYC) checks, as mandated by Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing legislation. Further investigation into the scope of this synthetic identity fraud is required.
Any additional identities?
A test for whether she has established other identities for example without her middle name, was made by searching using the names Laura Dodsworth, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search/officers?q=Laura+DODSWORTH.
There is one identity which includes these two names but with two different middle names and has a different date of birth. This is:

Testing for multiple identities for Ian Dodsworth.
A search was made on this name, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search/officers?q=Ian+Dodsworth.
There are multiple identities that include these two names, but with different dates of birth. Several of these are duplicated. One stands out as having the same address as Ian Dodsworth born July 1977
Total number of appointments 0 - Born February 1977
Avenham House, Gas Lane, Cricklade, Swindon, Wilts, England, SN6 6BY
This identity has the following appointment:

Date of birth February 1977
Company status Dissolved Correspondence address Avenham House, Gas Lane, Cricklade, Swindon, Wilts, England, SN6 6BY Role Director Appointed on 14 August 2019 Nationality British Country of residence United Kingdom Occupation Aircraft Engineer
Observations
Since Ian Dodsworth born February 1971, with occupation Aircraft Specialist and Ian Robert Dodsworth born February 1977, has occupation Aircraft Engineer, and these occupations are very similar, we can conclude that, on balance of probabilities, these are two identities for the same person.
These two identities require further investigation for synthetic identity fraud, by considering the transactions made by these companies. Transactions could have passed Know Your Customer checks which, had his other appointments been transparent, might have been declined. An individual holding more than a single unique identifier breaches anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing and anti-people trafficking legislation, and they put the public at risk of the associated crimes. Bank accounts of companies that are dissolved, are closed at the request of the directors. It is possible that bank accounts have not been closed and that financial transactions are still occurring in the names of dissolved companies.
Upon concluding that Ian Dodsworth, February 1971, and Ian Robert Dodsworth, February 1977, are the same person this opens the possibility that he may have used other names as well as a different date of birth.
Referring back to the search results for Ian Dodsworth, the following identities include the name Ian Dodsworth and have duplicated identities:

Observations
There are four additional individuals who use the name Ian Dodsworth, who also, on balance of probabilities, have multiple identities registered.
Ian DODSWORTH, born November 1971, has 2 identities
Ian Charles Frederick DODSWORTH, born June 1963, has 2 identities
Ian David DODSWORTH, born November 1953, has 3 identities.
Ian Fowler DODSWORTH is a secretary and has 5 identities.
Note that “Fowler” is a name that recurs in the address of another of the companies with “Skeptics” in the name, UK SKEPTICS 05819701 - Dissolved on 29 June 2010 87 Fowler Street, South Shields, Tyne & Wear, NE35 9HQ. This statistical anomaly may or may not be relevant. UK Skeptics and the other companies that include the name Skeptics require further analysis.
Each of these Ian Dodsworths have breached Section 1082 of the Companies Act which has serious repercussions on the transparency and accountability of these individuals and they require further investigating to determine the scale of the impact of their synthetic identity fraud.
Given the non-compliant activity associated with this name it is recommended that the other Ian Dodworths are also investigated, to determine whether, or not, they are related parties.

Observations
These findings indicate multiple identities for individuals named Ian Dodsworth, Laura Catherine Dodsworth, and variations of these names. The presence of multiple identities under different dates of birth and addresses raises significant concerns of synthetic identity fraud, AML, and CFT compliance breaches.
Recommendations
Immediate Rectification: Ensure all directors accurately disclose their directorships on official records.
Comprehensive Investigation: Conduct thorough investigations into the non-disclosed directorships and overdue accounts to ensure compliance with legal requirements.
Review Governance Practices: Enhance corporate governance practices for transparency and accountability.
Investigate Synthetic Identity Fraud: Assess the scope of potential synthetic identity fraud involving these individuals to prevent further AML/CFT violations.
2. Francis HOAR
Overview
Francis HOAR, born March 1977, is a director of British Friends of Israel and Together Members Limited, appointed on 5 August 2022. A search on Companies House returns several individuals with names and dates of birth that include the names Hoar, including multiple identities that may be associated with him (https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search/officers?q=francis%20hoar), these are copied below. The findings are analysed to determine if there is a case of synthetic identity fraud.

Observations
It is very unlikely that more than one person with the same four names and date of birth, has established a company registered in Companies House. Therefore it is very likely that the eight identities named Nicholas John Francis HOAR, born May 1967 and the identity Nick Francis HOAR, born May 1967, are all identities of the same individual. On balance of probabilities, Nicholas John Francis HOAR, born May 1967, has breached section 1082 of the Companies Act 2006 and requires investigation for synthetic identity fraud.
On balance of probabilities it is likely that Nicholas John Francis Hoar, May 1967, is a related party of Francis HOAR, born March 1977, and is possibly the same person. Further investigation is required.

Address recurrence anomaly
Nick John Francis Hoar, born May 1967, is a director 14FGB LIMITED with correspondence address, 124 City Road, London, England, EC1V 2NX (appointed on 25 April 2024). This is also the registered address of MERSEYSIDE SKEPTICS SOCIETY LIMITED, incorporated on 20 August 2010 at “Merseyside Skeptics Society, 124 City Road, London, England, EC1V 2NX”.
Francis Hoar, born March 1977, is a director of Friends of Israel Limited. His co-director there, Toby Daniel Moorsom Young, is also a director of Skeptics Limited. The use of the address at 124 City Road by Nick John Francis Hoar for 14FGB Limited, which is also the registered address of Merseyside Skeptics Society Limited, establishes a direct connection between these identities. The recurrence of the name “Skeptics” within the linked directorships of Francis Hoar and Nick John Francis Hoar further increases the likelihood that they are the same person.
The address anomaly analysis reveals that the Companies House Officer service report may be incomplete. To facilitate the continued analysis, a cluster analysis tool is required.
Recommendations
Immediate Investigation: A thorough investigation into the identity clusters and potential synthetic identity fraud involving Francis Hoar and Nicholas John Francis Hoar is necessary.
Cluster Analysis Tool: Implement a cluster analysis tool to further elucidate the relationship between these identities and their respective appointments.
Review Compliance: Review compliance with Section 1082 of the Companies Act 2006 to ensure transparency and accountability.
Enhanced KYC Checks: Conduct enhanced KYC checks to prevent AML and counter-terrorism financing breaches.
Further Analysis
Given the potential connections and anomalies detected, a detailed examination of the records and activities of Merseyside Skeptics Society Limited and associated directors is warranted to uncover any additional discrepancies and ensure compliance with legal standards.

Conclusion
If Francis Hoar is confirmed to be the same person as Nicholas John Francis Hoar, then these companies are also associated with Toby Daniel Moorsom Young. This association is concealed by Francis Hoar's use of multiple registered identities.
Within the linked directorate of the directors of Merseyside Skeptics Society Limited, there are additional companies with derivations of the name “Skeptics”; namely, The Skeptic (Publishing) Ltd and North West Skeptical Events Limited. These companies were not returned in the search results in Companies House on "Skeptics," which returned just four companies. This discrepancy highlights a limitation of this report and the need for a broader range of search strategies to be applied. Furthermore, it underscores a nuanced naming strategy that assists in concealing these additional companies from anyone simply searching on “Skeptics”.
Recommendation
Based on the anomalies detected, the regulatory body should conduct a thorough investigation into the identity clusters and possible cases of synthetic identity fraud involving Francis Hoar and Nicholas John Francis Hoar. The use of a cluster analysis tool will assist in further elucidating the relationship between these identities and their respective appointments.
Testing the directors of Merseyside Skeptics Society Limited for multiple identities
To do.

Observations
Multiple Appointments at the Same Address:
Several companies share the same correspondence address at 3rd Floor, 28 Austin Friars, London, EC2N 2QQ, indicating a potential hub for these corporate entities.
Nationality and Residence Discrepancies:
Nicholas John Francis Hoar's nationality is consistently British, but his country of residence varies between England and Hong Kong, which could complicate verification processes and indicate attempts to obscure true residency status.
Overlap and Repetition:
The recurrence of identical names across various corporate appointments raises red flags regarding the legitimacy of these identities.
Potential Fraud Indicators:
The use of multiple addresses, frequent changes in directorship, and overlapping roles across companies are classic indicators of potential synthetic identity fraud and possible money laundering activities.
Conclusions and Recommendations
Given the extensive evidence of discrepancies and potential synthetic identities, the following actions are recommended:
Further Investigation:
Conduct a detailed investigation to uncover the full extent of the potential synthetic identity fraud. This includes a thorough review of all transactions and corporate activities associated with these identities.
Cross-Verification:
Cross-verify the transactions involving these identities with other financial records and regulatory filings to identify any illegal activities.
Notify Relevant Authorities:
Inform relevant authorities, including financial regulators and law enforcement agencies, to ensure appropriate legal action is taken against any fraudulent activities uncovered.
Enhance Identity Verification Processes:
Strengthen identity verification processes within Companies House to prevent the creation and use of synthetic identities in the future. This could include enhanced due diligence, biometric verification, and cross-referencing with other governmental databases.
These measures are crucial for maintaining the integrity of corporate governance, financial transparency, and compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing legislation.
This is the end of the section relating to Francis Hoar. The next director of British Friends of Israel Limited to be analysed is Janet MacVarish.
3. Janet MACVARISH
A search for identities with the name Janet Macvarish was made, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search?q=Janet+MACVARISH.
Two identities with this name were returned in the search. These are:

On balance of probabilities these are two identities for the same person. The effect of this is that Janet Macvarish’s appointment to Engine House Software Limited is not transparent to auditors or clients doing Know Your Customer checks on, for example, Friends of Israel Limited.
Mark Robert Birbeck has just one identity registered, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search/officers?q=Mark+Robert+Birbeck.
An incidental finding is that the following Birbecks appear to potentially have multiple identities registered. Only identities returned on the first page of the search results are included, further investigation for other Birbecks with multiple identities is recommended. Investigation into whether or not any of these are related parties of Mark Robert Birbeck is recommended.

Recommendations for Further Investigation
Identity Verification:
Conduct in-depth identity verification for Janet MacVarish and associated individuals to determine if synthetic identity fraud is involved.
Relationship Analysis:
Investigate the potential relationships between the Birbecks to identify if there are related parties or patterns of identity manipulation.
Cross-Referencing:
Cross-reference these identities with other corporate and financial records to ensure compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations.
Regulatory Notification:
Notify relevant regulatory bodies about these findings to prompt a formal investigation.
Enhanced Due Diligence:
Implement enhanced due diligence measures for companies and individuals associated with these identities to prevent future fraud.
Next Steps
Investigation into Janet MacVarish: Verify if the two identities indeed refer to the same individual and understand the implications for her appointments.
Examine Birbeck Connections: Investigate potential multiple identities among the Birbecks and their connections to Mark Robert Birbeck.
Further Analysis on Related Parties: Look into other associated companies and their directors to identify any broader patterns of synthetic identity fraud.
This approach will help ensure compliance with the Companies Act 2006 and maintain the integrity of corporate governance.
4. Judith Allison PEARSON
Director of British Friends of Israel Limited: Correspondence address 7 Bell Yard, London, England, WC2A 2JR Role ACTIVE Director Date of birth July 1960 Appointed on 24 November 2023 Nationality British Country of residence England Occupation Journalist & Author
A search on the name Judith Allison Pearson locates just one identity, as described earlier, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search/officers?q=Judith%20Allison%20PEARSON.
A search on the name Judith Pearson https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/search/officers?q=Judith+Pearson did not locate another Judith Pearson with date of birth July 1960, or with the same address. There are nineteen identities that include these names, some secretaries, without a date of birth. Further research is required to rule out further identities using a different date of birth. There are several identities that are duplicated and require further investigation relating to the scale of the effect of their breach of Section 1082. These include:

Analysis and Recommendations
Overlapping Identities:
The presence of multiple individuals with the name "Judith Pearson" or variations thereof, combined with identical or similar addresses, suggests the possibility of synthetic identity fraud. On the balance of probabilities, these fourteen identities may represent just six individuals. Further investigation is needed to confirm this and determine any potential connections to Judith Allison Pearson.
Recommendations for Further Investigation:
Identity Verification:
Conduct thorough identity verification for each Judith Pearson to determine if any fraudulent activities or synthetic identities are involved.
Verify if any of these identities are related to Judith Allison Pearson.
Related Party Analysis:
Investigate potential relationships among the individuals listed, especially those with similar addresses or identical dates of birth.
Cross-Referencing:
Cross-reference these identities with other corporate and financial records to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
Regulatory Notification:
Notify relevant regulatory bodies about these findings to prompt a formal investigation.
Enhanced Due Diligence:
Implement enhanced due diligence measures for companies and individuals associated with these identities to prevent future fraud.
Next Steps
Investigation into Judith Allison Pearson: Verify her identity and any potential connections to the other Judith Pearsons listed above.
Examine Potential Multiple Identities: Investigate the potential multiple identities among the Judith Pearsons and their connections to ensure compliance with the Companies Act 2006 and prevent identity fraud.
By taking these steps, the integrity of corporate governance and compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations can be maintained.

Analysis and Recommendations
Overlapping Identities:
The presence of three different identities for Ian Richard Guy Rons, each with unique addresses and appointment histories, suggests possible synthetic identity fraud. This potentially breaches Section 1082 of the Companies Act 2006, which addresses the accuracy and completeness of information provided to Companies House.
Impact on Know Your Customer (KYC) Analysis:
These multiple identities can obscure the true extent of Ian Richard Guy Rons's business interests, compromising KYC analysis and increasing the risk of money laundering and terrorism financing.
Recommendations for Further Investigation:
Identity Verification:
Conduct thorough verification for each identity of Ian Richard Guy Rons to confirm if they all belong to the same individual.
Verify his involvement and roles in each of the companies listed to assess any concealed interests or activities.
Detailed Investigation:
Investigate the connections between the different addresses and companies to determine if these identities have been used to facilitate fraudulent or illegal activities.
Look into the financial transactions and business activities associated with each identity.
Regulatory Notification:
Notify relevant regulatory bodies about the potential breach of Section 1082 of the Companies Act 2006 to prompt a formal investigation.
Enhanced Due Diligence:
Implement enhanced due diligence measures for companies and individuals associated with these identities to prevent future fraud and ensure compliance with AML and CTF regulations.
Next Steps
Verify Each Identity: Confirm whether Ian Richard Guy Rons has indeed created multiple identities and understand the rationale behind this.
Investigate Potential Fraud: Look for any evidence of synthetic identity fraud, including analyzing financial records and transactions.
Regulatory Action: Ensure that the relevant authorities are informed so that appropriate action can be taken to address any illegal activities.
Conclusion
The investigation into Toby Daniel Moorsom Young's involvement and related parties within British Friends of Israel Limited reveals significant complexities and potential irregularities. Key findings include:
Multiple Directorships and Identities:
Toby Daniel Moorsom Young holds directorships in multiple companies, including British Friends of Israel Limited, where overlapping directorships with other entities raise concerns about transparency and potential conflicts of interest.
Synthetic Identity Concerns:

This poses a risk to accurate KYC analysis and regulatory compliance.
Compliance and Governance Issues:
Instances where directors and related entities have multiple appointments without transparent disclosure hinder effective governance and regulatory oversight. Such practices may violate Section 1082 of the Companies Act 2006, compromising financial transparency and accountability.

Further investigate the connections and financial transactions involving Toby Daniel Moorsom Young, Francis Hoar, Janet MacVarish, Judith Allison Pearson, and Ian Richard Guy Rons to uncover any potential illegal activities or conflicts of interest.

Integrity and Transparency:
Upholding the integrity of corporate governance and maintaining transparency in business operations is crucial. Addressing the identified issues will help mitigate risks associated with financial misconduct and enhance overall regulatory compliance.
Next Steps:
Further Investigation:
Conduct a detailed investigation to uncover the full extent of the potential synthetic identity fraud. This includes a thorough review of all transactions and corporate activities associated with these identities.
Cross-Verification:
Cross-verify the transactions involving these identities with other financial records and regulatory filings to identify any illegal activities.
Notify Relevant Authorities:
Inform relevant authorities, including financial regulators and law enforcement agencies, to ensure appropriate legal action is taken against any fraudulent activities uncovered.
Enhanced Identity Verification Processes:
Strengthen identity verification processes within Companies House to prevent the creation and use of synthetic identities in the future. This could include enhanced due diligence, biometric verification, and cross-referencing with other governmental databases.

Biographies of the directors are not available on the website.
Breach:
Francis Hoar fails to declare his directorship of Together Members Limited to the audience of British Friends of Israel Limited.
Francis Hoar’s disclosure on Together Members Limited’s website
A search for the Together Members Limited website, using an internet search engine, returns the Together Association, (Home - Together Association (togetherdeclaration.org https://togetherdeclaration.org/).
Together Members - Meet the team
A search for “directors” on the Together Members Limited website locates a “Meet the Team” page (Meet the Team - Together Declaration https://togetherdeclaration.org/meet-the-team/).
Below is a summary of the interests declared by each member of the "Team" listed on the Together Members’ website:
Alan Miller:
Background: Co-founded London's Old Truman Brewery and the Night Time Industries Association.
Interests: Advocates for civil liberties, opposes vaccine passports, influences policy at governmental levels, and engages with mainstream media to promote alternative narratives.
Lesley Katon:

Summary: The Together website lists three directors under "Meet the Team" without explicitly stating their roles as directors. The directors who are listed are; Alan Miller, Norris Windross and Rob Tyson. The current directors Francis Hoar and Stephen Robert James are not included within the Team page. Since Anna Rayner is resigned, that her profile is missing is to be expected.
The Team page includes two individuals who are not also directors; Lesley Keaton and Charlotte Gracias. Investigations should consider whether these are shadow directors that should be registered as directors (a potential breach).
Note that the team members listed highlight diverse backgrounds and interests, including civil liberties advocacy, media influence, music and entertainment industry management, community engagement, public sector project management, and small business support.

Breaches:

Among the directors recorded at Companies House for Together Members Limited, only Francis Hoar is listed as a member of the Together Cabinet. The list of directors includes:
Francis Hoar - March 1977
Stephen Robert James - December 1973
Alan Miller - August 1970
Robert Tyson - September 1979
Norris Edmond Windross - May 1963
Anna Rayner - August 1977 (resigned)
Of these directors, Francis Hoar is noted as the Chair of the Cabinet Workgroup on Law and Order within the Together Cabinet, whereas the other directors are not mentioned in the Together Cabinet membership. This suggests that Francis Hoar holds a dual role, both as a company director and as a prominent figure within the organisation's Cabinet, emphasising his significant involvement and influence in the organisation.
Breach: It appears that the Together Members Limited website fails to disclose the directorship details of its board members as required by transparency guidelines. Instead the board members are variously described as “Team Members” and “Cabinet Members”. Stephen Robert James, born December 1973, who is a director is not included as a Together Team member or Cabinet Member. Stephen Robert James appears in neither of these categories. He fails to declare his involvement.

This breaches Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing legislation and puts the public at risk of money laundering and terrorism and, given his involvement with aviation; smuggling and people trafficking.

Summary relating to Together Members Directors.
Among the directors listed on Companies House for Together Members Limited, only Francis Hoar is prominently identified as a member of the Together Cabinet, serving as the Chair of the Cabinet Workgroup on Law and Order. The directors do not declare themselves as such on the Together Members website. This omission raises concerns regarding the organisation's adherence to transparency standards, as complete disclosure of directorship roles is crucial for accountability and public trust
Conclusion: Francis Hoar fails to declare directorships of British Friends of Israel and Together Members Limited on the Together Members Limited website
On the Together Members Limited website, Francis Hoar fails to declare that he is a director of Friends of Israel Limited, since his appointment there on 24 November 2023, to the audience of Together Members Limited’s website.

He also fails to declare that he is a director of Together Members Limited on the Together website, although he does disclose that he is a “cabinet member”. Failing to disclose this directorship is a further breach of the Companies Act.
The Together Declaration.
The Together Declaration constitutes a legal arrangement, involving a membership subscription and Francis Hoar and the other directors have a duty to disclose their related parties.
