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

Mansfield Carpets (Contracts) Limited faced Companies House action over four consecutive years of delayed filings

The carpet fitting business belonging to the family of Mick Barton – the Reform UK leader of Nottinghamshire county council who barred the main local paper – has been threatened with a compulsory strike off from Companies House for four consecutive years.

Mansfield Carpets (Contracts) Limited, which is owned by Barton’s wife Gail, is two months late filing its 2024 accounts. For the previous three years the business also appears to have been late publishing its confirmation statement, which provides details of a company’s shareholders.
