[edit] The Skinny

Uh oh, you guiz. Looks like we caught Scientology lying to the Inland Revenue and Companies House.

• DOX: [1]
• DOX 2: Church of Scientology Religious Education College Incorporated accounts up to end of 2006: [2] [needs moar analysis]

Apparently in 2006 they had no incomings and no outgoings. Yet, they still managed to pay for the upkeep of Orgs all over the country, as well as the Super Adventure Club's Super Secret Hideaway at St. Hill Castle in Sussex. Also, apparently all of their directors live at Walsh Manor, Walshes Road, Crowborough, East Sussex. ORLY? See Walsh Manor for more information.

Needless to say, Anonymous calls bullshit.

[edit] The Plan

1. Find Christoper Owen, OBE. He has more information on the financial history of Scientology UK. ANON DELIVERS. Emails being sent later today (will be 13th now, tired xb is tired) pending consensus approval.
2. Find the following people named in the dox: Graeme Reid Wilson, Gregory Irving Ryerson, Rachel Anne Ryerson. UPDATE: Partial win acheived. We've confirmed that Gregory and Rachel Ryerson exist. Finding Graeme Reid Wilson opened a whole other bag of shit (see below).
3. Details on the following address, allegedly the home of Scientology in the UK (recon/sitrep would be useful): Church of Scientology (England and Wales), 42-44 Copthorne Road, Felbridge, East Grinstead, West Sussex, RH19 2NS VICTORY. This is the home of Hodkin & Co. Solicitors, suspected firm of choice for SciUK.
4. Politely request that these people release their financial records for perusal.
5. Upon almost certain refusal, prepare dossier to present to Companies House and Inland Revenue demanding an explanation for this obvious faggot tree.
6. Crossreference all names here: [3] with WISE and Google. These people all claim to live at Walsh Manor and are all registered to vote there. Prove they exist. Secondary sources only, please. Also flag any names on the list that've appeared in one or more honor rolls yet have completed a comparatively small number of courses. Report [4].
7. Information on Nicholas Soames MP (MP for East Grinstead). Including address, phone, business interests, family, friends, everything.

THE SUCCESS OF THIS PROJECT COULD RESULT IN THE DEATH OF THE CHURCH OF $CIENTOLOGY IN THE UK. SRSBSNS PRIORITY 1.

[edit] Progress

• Following tips from our source in #xenu (who I am voluntarily protecting - they haven't asked to not be named) I've found Christopher Owen. I'm drafting a loooooongcat email to send to him which I'll copypasta here and in #manchester later. --Xenubuster 13:07, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

• Alno_M_Inus makes some progress on the names and people linked to them:

<Alno_M_Inus> [Cut to: Interior of a London taxi. HEBER JENTZSCH is talking to an unnamed woman who I recognise as Rachael Ryerson, who along with her husband Greg (They are joint Directors of Special Affairs) was allowed to stomp all over Martin Poulter during their appearance together on the show Cyber.Cafe.]

Encouraging stuff...--Xenubuster 14:05, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

HOW DID THIS GET HERE? I'M NOT GOOD WITH ACCOUNTANCY. The CoSRECI accounts need scrutiny from knowledgable Anon. Are they complete as they seem? Do they declare everything they should? Any possible holes? etc. --Xenubuster 14:27, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Church of Scientology England and Wales seems to be a dormant company set up in preparation for charitable status. As this was never granted, they have never traded. Instead all monies seem to go through COSRECI. -- Anon1593 16:37, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

42-44 Copthorne Road, the registered home of the Church of Scientology England and Wales, is the offices of Hodkin and Company solicitors. Is this the church of scientology's UK law firm? -- Anon1593 16:37, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I think it's safe to say that Hodkin and Co. are - or at least were until extremely recently - their solicitors in the UK [5] [6]. So, legalities of having your firm registered with a solicitor? --Xenubuster 16:52, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

An electoral register search reveals some interesting details about the manors inhabitants [7] --Anon1593 20:36, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

HMO act 2006, if they have lots of people registered at one address maybe this could be investigated? [8] --manchester-anon 00:00, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Interesting ruling on the UK CoS charity status: [9], "CoS was not established for the charitable purpose of promoting the moral or spiritual welfare and improvement of the community" --Anon2256 10:07, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
