At a press conference in the City of London on Wednesday, Mr Tice even directly compared himself to Reeves, stating: “When I was chief executive of a big multinational multi-billion pound property company, where in just four years I tripled the share price… not a track record I think our current chancellor can talk of.”.
Exclusive: Richard Tice has repeatedly mocked Rachel Reeves for having allegedly embellished her CV, but The Independent can reveal the Reform UK deputy leader has in fact exagerrated his own business success on his CV.
The former businessman, who was replaced as Reform leader when Mr Farage returned to fight the general election, has repeatedly attacked the chancellor as “Rachel from accounts”, a reference to allegations she embellished her CV relating to her time working at the Halifax Bank of Scotland (HBOS).
But financial disclosures from CLS, seen by The Independent, show that when Mr Tice was appointed chief executive on 1 January 2011, the company’s shares were worth 52.5p.
It is an embarrassing revelation for Mr Tice, who on Thursday told this paper: “Rachel Reeves cannot even manage her own CV let alone manage the economy.”.
