sometimes you assume every conservative mp is a 42 yr old with an mba from an american university and a six year stint at pricewaterhousecoopers and then you realize revenants like this are still in the house of commons

Lympne Castle is a medieval castle located near the village of Lympne, Kent, above Romney Marsh.

Today, it is used primarily as a venue for corporate events and weddings. It is generally not open to the public. The Estate Manager is Rod Aspinall. Lympne Castle is believed to be haunted, and has attracted mediums and ghost-hunters over the years.

This is Mohammed Azam Yaqoob aka "Mr Sparkles" (the name of his modest car wash business in Dewsbury) and a convicted heroin trafficker. I know an Asian guy who grew up with Mohammed and described him as "thick as fuck" and a "disgrace to his great family". I like the guy and tbf it takes some intelligence to become a major drug trafficker and I always root for the maligned odd one out of a successful family. Of his siblings; one brother is an eminent surgeon at St James hospital, the other brother is the governor of Wakefield prison, one sister runs a successful chain of dentists and the other is a barrister.

that front garden should be finished by the time he comes out

The Falun Gong Show (Noodle Vague), Friday, 31 October 2014 20:52 (nine years ago) link

He never got planning permission and it is in more on the Ukip side of the Mirfield/Ravensthorpe borderlands so it is a focal point for local outrage and for years it has been rumoured there will be a demolition order. When he gets out if it doesn't get pulled down he will struggle to sell it because of it's frequent local rag ubiquity.

xelab, Friday, 31 October 2014 21:09 (nine years ago) link

xelab that is the best of all of your posts

Yaqoob, of North Road, Ravensthorpe, was jailed for nine years and four months after pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply class A drugs at an earlier hearing.

Ten years ago, he was at the centre of a planning row over a £1m house in Huddersfield Road, Mirfield, allegedly built without planning permission.

Kirklees Council ordered it to be pulled down but Yaqoob overturned the decision on appeal.

just a mensch in so many categories....opportunistic drug trafficker, exurban mansion builder, scorner of good taste, successful planning appeal litigant, confiscation order refusenik

got a lot of love for these sorts of spivs and chancers

i was reading that Express and Star bit last week, i agree about hilarious roguery but also some of these guys have probly had people seriously fucked up when necessary so swings and roundabouts

The Falun Gong Show (Noodle Vague), Friday, 31 October 2014 21:32 (nine years ago) link

these people look like the sort of speculative daytrippers who end up getting abducted and threatened by actual gangsters, most serious organized criminals realizing that the latter is less risky than trying to import large quantities of class a themselves
