Family firm of Reform UK council leader threatened with compulsory strike off

Mansfield Carpets (Contracts) Limited, owned by the family of Mick Barton, the Reform UK leader of Nottinghamshire county council, is facing a compulsory strike off from Companies House due to four consecutive years of delayed filings. This situation raises concerns about the business's viability and the potential impact on local employment, especially as Barton has previously barred the main local paper from covering council matters. The ongoing issues with the company highlight the challenges small businesses face in maintaining compliance and the scrutiny they endure from regulatory bodies.
