Andrea Leadsom accused of 'misleading' claims on her CV

There are suggestions she may not have actually been an investment banker

Andrea Leadsom does not have claimed experience as an investment banker despite suggestions that she managed billions of pounds, it has been alleged.

An investigation by The Times newspaper says that during her time at Invesco Perpetual Ms Leadsom was only approved by the financial services regulator for three months.

This approval is required for any roles dealing with funds or clients.

One of her supporters, Tory MP Bernard Jenkin, has said she was responsible at one point for “for managing hundreds of people and billions of pounds”.

In the House of Commons she has also spoken of “managing the investment banks team at Barclays”.

But a former colleague, Robert Stephens, told the website Reaction that “she did not manage any teams, large or small, and she certainly did not manage any funds”

Mr Stephens added that Ms Leadsom “had allowed the impression to arise that “she has finance management skills and experience which qualify her for senior posts in government”.

This allegation related to her time at Invesco Perpetual from 1999 to 2009.

It is also alleged by The Times that during her time at De Putron Fund Management Ltd from 1997 to 1999 she was registered as “marketing director” rather than a fund managing role.

A spokesperson for Ms Leadsom said: “It looks as though the issue is that anyone who reads Andrea’s CV and attaches a lot of weight to that particular role may actually be under some slight misapprehension as to what it was she actually did.”

Tory leadership candidate Andrea Leadsom has admitted “misleading” the public about her background in finance.

CV PORKIES Candidate for Tory Leadership Andrea Leadsom ‘misled’ public about background in finance

Former colleagues pour cold water on Leadsom's claims to have managed money or people in previous job

Tory leadership candidate Andrea Leadsom has admitted “misleading” the public about her background in finance.

The PM hopeful, who finished behind the front runner Theresa May in the first round of voting by Conservative MPs last night, had previously bragged of her background running “enormous teams” during her life in the City.

The investigation has also revealed that Mrs Leadson has lied about her role in separate investment fund run by her brother-in-law.

Mrs Leadson has previously claimed to have served as De Putron Fund Management’s Managing Director.

But filings at Companies House have revealed that she was actually registered as the firm’s Marketing Director.

What do you expect from a tory PM candidate?

From memory I think IDS had similar problems with his CV.

You ever had a horses head in your boot Freda .

Vicky.

No.

Have you lost yours?

Bookies offering 5/1 for Andrea and 1/5 for Theresa. Not bad odds for a bet on Andrea. Gove is 17/1

Haystack.

You missed this one about your new love.

Breitbart News is a far right US news service. I read it now and then to conform my suspicions of the far right press. It is a strong supporter of Trump. Its readership is akin to Tanker on here. Nothing it publishes is worth reading.

What, none of it's true?

None of it??

so fred is? :-)

Far right? Hardly. Conservative yes but what is wrong with that? Breitbart was a former editor of the Huffington Post - by your standards extreme left.
Previously left-leaning in his politics, Breitbart changed his political views after experiencing an "epiphany" while watching the late 1991 confirmation hearings for Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas, who was charged with sexual harassment. Breitbart later described himself as "a Reagan conservative" with libertarian sympathies.

Huffington Post is nothing to crow about. They publish almost anything. They have an odd business model. They don't pay for any of their stories. They regard the publishing of the article as payment enough. The result is a lot of nonsense. Even the editor of the Huffington Post is a voluntary unpaid post.

"Huffington Post editor thinks journalism is only authentic when you don't pay the writer"

As you can imagine serious journalist are not impressed by that attitude and don't write for Huffington.

Anyway Haystack only read's Breitbart News 'now and then'....

Whenever it dropped through his letterbox(inbox), i should imagine..

Try reading some of their articles. They are from quite an extreme right perspective. The article about May is a distortion.

Who'se crowing? Your method is to disparage anyone or anything that doesn't fit your spiel.
Andrea is a banker - boo! Andea is not a banker - boo!
All the explorers and miners have left Toronto for London... I'm still waiting for you to give one that has delisted from the TVX and moved to London. Menwhile the gold and copper stocks I have on the TVX are roaring away while the London listings are limping along.

Ho yes i forgot...May is a middle of the road Blairite robot...
