The Kiplingcotes Derby

Today is the first day on which can be held the earliest attested steeplechase in England. The Kiplingcotes Derby, held just outside Market Weighton in Humberside, is also the most eccentric horse race of them all. Its course is a good four miles long and takes place in hilly countryside over a somewhat indeterminate and meandering route. It crosses fields, a railway bridge and a major road possibly making the race one of the most dangerous in the country too. Its origins probably lie in the need to train horses for the Ridings after their winter enclosing and the race can trace its lineage back over 400 years to 1519, when it is thought to have been initiated. Unusually for a race of this vintage and its probable military origins, men and women can compete and no rider must weigh in over ten stone. The award of the prize money is not straightforward. In 1618, a local wealthy supporter of the race donated the then huge sum of £365 for the Derby’s winner, although these days the winner only receives the interest on the amount which, in recent years will have been a derisory amount. It actually pays to come second as the runner up receives a percentage of all the riders’ entrance fees, which given the race’s popularity, is quite sizeable and is always worth more than first prize. Riders nearing the finish line have been known to argue over who should cross it first.

The race has survived wars and natural disasters. Its biggest threat is now rather more bureaucratic: the diffuse community of Kiplingcotes is no longer recognised on Ordnance Survey maps, leading to temporary loss of tourist road signs until local protests saw them restored.

Today is also the Ides of March - the date that Roman Dictator Julius Caesar was struck down by Republic-supporting senators. Despite Shakespeare’s famous line (‘Beware the Ides of March’) the 15th has never really gained a reputation as a day of ill omen.

Graham Stanley Jones issued with RICS 'Cease & Desist' in 2022

A Yorkshire 'Walter Mitty' ?

Graham Stanely Jones of Tickton, East Yorkshire and founding director of Hull based property firm Garness Jones Ltd received a 'Cease and Desist' from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors [RICS] for deliberately passing himself off as a 'Chartered Surveyor' and qualified Valuer over a period of at least 30 years.

If you have ever received a valuation or any professional advice from Garness Jones Ltd or Rogerson Graham Jones Ltd we urge you to check the documents and if you find they have been performed and signed by 'Graham Jones' you should contact the RICS and possibly the Police.

In 2022, our investigation team handed over 100+ documents to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors for their review. Most of these documents were valuation reports and communications on Garness Jones Ltd headed paper used in the 2004 and 2008 divorce proceedings of Mr & Mrs Foreman of Tickton Hall, Beverley, East Yorkshire but, also included further valuations for Andrew Foreman post divorce along with screenshots of Jones' since deleted LinkedIn CV, online links to AGM notes for public companies where Jones was employed and Jones' past and present appointments at Companies House.

Our investigation discovered Graham Jones had a very 'inventive' LinkedIn account available to the public in which he detailed his alleged employment history and qualifications. Jones quickly deleted this LinkedIn when aware he was being investigated but, this was not before screenshots were obtained, scroll down to view.

As you can see, Jones is quite happy to claim his expertise includes undertaking "all types of valuations" and numerous other forms of professional work including 'dilapidations' when in reality the RICS confirmed he has never held any professional qualifications that make him a qualified registered valuer and/or chartered surveyor. Jones has only ever been qualified to undertake 'Market Appraisals' and these are not defined as valuations but, merely a person's opinion of value as is typically given by an Estate Agent when they 'value' your home.

Jones' LinkedIn clearly states he was employed by Garness Jones Ltd up to 2003.  Yet our investigation produced valuation reports and documents signed by Jones on Garness Jones Ltd headed paper and dated 2004, 2006 and 2008. When asked, Jones said he retired from Garness Jones Ltd in 2013 while the MD of Garness Jones Ltd said he was a Consultant until 2008. Whatever the case, the content of the valuation reports and they very fact Jones knew he was not qualified to produce or sign them off would reasonably suggest he was in the business of producing documents to unfairly benefit third parties. Was his fellow business partner David Garness involved too?

Yorkshire businessman and entrepreneur Andrew Foreman received matrimonial valuations in 2004 following verbal, not written, instructions to Jones and the former Mrs Foreman was asked to rely upon these to reach a settlement. Foreman also received other valuations and documents performed by Graham Jones on Garness Jones Ltd headed paper in 2006 and 2008 and is understood to have retained Jones services until recently. The 2004 matrimonial valuations were passed to a top London law firm in 2022 who advised the former Mrs Foreman she had suffered a loss, considered today with interest, to be valued in excess of £30million.

When Jones set up Rogerson Graham Jones with Peter Rogerson in 2008, he claimed at Companies House that his occupation was 'Chartered Surveyor' which he evidently knew he was not. Peter Rogerson was a legitimate qualified Chartered Surveyor so you would reasonably expect him to question why, if his business partner was an RICS member, were they only paying for a single RICS membership? When asked recently, we understand Rogerson declined to comment.

When Jones was asked why, since 2008, he had been claiming to be an expert in waste management, landfill and quarry valuations when he did not possess any of the specialist qualifications, he refused to comment. However, he did also threaten to sue anyone who accused him of any wrongdoing. The RICS issuing Jones a 'cease and desist' confirmed there was no basis for Jones to sue anyone, quite the opposite.

Jones also refused to confirm or deny if he had prepared any waste management valuations for his friend Yorkshire businessman Andrew Foreman who had set up waste management and recycling businesses around the same time and which today have asset values of over £10million. It would be the perfect storm for someone less than honest to have Jones providing 'bent' valuations passed off as legitimate ones which could then be used to acquire loans and further financial benefit.

In respect of Graham Jones claims he was employed by public limited companies, as if to suggest this would make him look squeaky clean, our investigation found he was indeed employed by at least two PLC's however, we also found online copies of the AGM minutes in which Jones was described as someone who had, "performed valuations for many well-known banks and private clients" when in reality, he has never been qualified to do so.

2022 onwards... After the RICS 'Cease and Desist'

RICS did not publicise the issuing of their 'cease and desist' to Graham Jones and therefore they have helped him escape public scrutiny and the very real prospect that there may be hundreds of people in Yorkshire and elsewhere who have received RICS valuation reports and professional work that was never performed by a qualified Chartered Surveyor but, made to look like it was.

The ramifications are potentially huge as a lender who loans money based on a fraudulent valuation can call in their loan and repossess property, ultimately they can report the crime to the Police.

So where is Jones' post his 'cease and desist'?

At the time of publication, Jones is a consultant for Yorkshire based property firm Tradepark. Jones is known to be a family friend of the Butters family who own and operate Tradepark. We understand the directors of Tradepark were made aware of Jones' 'cease and desist' however, they are evidently happy to continue their relationship with him which may make members of the public question their own integrity. We do not know of any other businesses that happily employ someone who has lied about their professional qualifications and performed fake valuations for over 30 years.

Police Report

We understand Graham Jones actions were reported to Humberside Police who, perhaps unsurprisingly said they were 'very busy'. Too busy it appears to investigate what could reasonably be far reaching and significant financial fraud and deception over a 30 year period.

Our investigation discovered Jones is currently employed by Yorkshire property firm Tradepark who are aware of Jones' past and seem unconcerned to be associated with him.

We also discovered from their website that one of Tradepark's tenants happens to be... Humberside Police.

Tour Championship, Hull (pt. 2)

My involvement in the 22/23 snooker season ended this week, and it ended the same way my previous tournament did with Shaun Murphy taking the trophy home. He withstood Kyren Wilson's lightning start in the final, fighting back from 4-0 down and confirming himself as the sport's in-form player.

Speaking of in-form, I also had a good final and came up with some top stats that were warmly received by production. I am often left frustrated at what feels like a lack of imagination and subsequent under-utilisation of our GFX capablilities (this week included), but for the final I pulled out all the stops and would not be denied.

I still feel like my feet haven’t touched the ground in the past month (and they won’t for a little while yet), which may go some way to explaining why I didn’t get the usual triumphant vibe that I normally do following the snooker. Being underused and sometimes downright ignored didn’t help my mood, but I think that – at least subconsciously – my interview at the start of the week hastened in the desire to do something new, and a week at the snooks has not quite provided the same buzz it once did.

I’ve had a blast on this job and I still generally enjoy it, but the nagging feeling that I’m in the final frame of my operating career has been growing for a while now, and if even my favourite aspect of the job cannot fully engage me, then perhaps it’s time I roll up behind the blue and exit the arena.

Dunno what’s so funny about that, Jill.

Oh, I nearly forgot to mention that I scored my third maximum! Ryan Day obliged in the third frame of his opening match v Mark Selby, which was made even more impressive by the fact that in the first two frames he hadn't potted a single ball! He also achieved another rare feat of a 16-red clearance (courtesy of a free ball), but despite these memorable moments he still lost. Always the spoilsport, Selby.
