Something’s up at E&Y
Has someone put something in the coffee at Ernst & Young lately?
TS only asks because it recently came across rumours that E&Y’s strategic review at Thomas Cook could result in the sell off of naughty subsidiary Club 18-30, famous for its boozy night-time antics (read our blog entry on it here).
Then we hear that the shortlist of two potential candidates for the sale of titles the firm is organising from Highbury House includes porn publisher Remnant Media. Remnant recently bought 40 titles from Daily Express owner Richard Desmond, including such luminary brands as Asian Babes and Readers Wives.
Perhaps E&Y could set up a division to specifically deal with the more saucy side of business. As far as someone to head it up goes, TS wonders if Jodie Marsh has an accounting qualification she’s hiding in those belts of hers.
