The already threadbare reputation of Conservative Party chairman Grant Shapps was further damaged today — with claims made to defend against initial questions over his honesty being exposed as utter bunkum.
Grant Shapps’ lawyers’ letter to this website, 29 October 2014:
“Our client has written business books under his pen name (Mr Green); but was studious in publishing his full name and biography alongside.”
Tory HQ statement 15 March 2015:
“Like many authors and journalists, Grant wrote with a pen name. This was completely transparent: his full name and biographical details were permanently published on the company’s main website.
So why has a forensic analysis of 700 archival pages from his HowToCorp.com website by the Guardian — including a ‘Michael Green’ biography — failed to find a single mention of his real name?
Tory HQ have now rowed back to their only safe territory, his declaration of a directorship and interest in How To Corp Ltd — though not the Michael Green pseudonym or his ongoing work for the firm — on the Register of Members’ Interests:
“The party chairman was open and transparent about his interests in his family business, not least through declarations to parliament.”
