with Marta Andreasen now departed, to join the Tories who totally rejected her as a candidate when first she tried to wheedle her way into a seat in The EU, and aware of just how crass are Nigel Farage’s abilities in man management and selection I felt a few more details might be apposite on Mrs. Diane Martine James.
Let me first thank a couple of friends, who assisted me, individuals who, like me, support the primary aims of UKIP and desperately wish the party could be cleaned-up and rid of the self seeking dross that has hijacked the leadership positions and the odious claque they sponsor to keep themselves on the gravy train.
I found companies associated with Diane Martine James (DMJ1) here:
http://company-director-check.co.uk/director/906262574
and (DMJ2) here:
http://company-director-check.co.uk/director/915838123
and with Diane Martine James Forrest here (whether an assumed name for convenience or a tacit nod to a marriage she seeks to hide, as John Richard Forrest is, amongst other things, an adviser and presumably lobbyist assisting The EU!)
http://www.cdrex.com/diane-martine-james-forrest/1455316.html
I noted at DMJ1 that her co-directors of Hamgain were Edwin James (b.1928) and Sandra S Cheesman (b.1962), who I assume to be her father and sister.
Edwin’s address was in Chatham which, if the family home, fits with UKIP’s notes that Diane was brought up in Kent; Sandra appears here:
http://www.192.com/atoz/people/cheesman/sandra/po18/2593831634/
sharing her address in Chidham with a David Roger Cheesman in 2002,
and as Sandra S James from 2003. (?Divorced?)
She also turns up on Chidham & Hambrook parish council!
I found companies associated with John Richard Forrest (JRF1) here:
http://company-director-check.co.uk/director/900734577
and here (JRF2):
http://company-director-check.co.uk/director/913360321
and here (JRF3):
http://company-director-check.co.uk/director/913360321
and also here (JRF4):
https://www.duedil.com/director/916443772/john-richard-forrest
though at first I wasn’t sure they were all the same person, it does seem they are.

John Richard Forrest’s biography can be found at:
http://www.gleesonexecutive.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=138&Itemid=535
this links all three lists, with NTL, Virgin Media, 3i and Blue Wave from (JRF1),
Zinwave from (JRF2)
and European Microelectronics Academy and Narec Capital from (JRF3).
It also gives the interesting piece of information about him advising the European Commission on technology initiatives!
One almost loses the will to live trying to untangle his different addresses as it is hard to tell whether those I found were private or company addresses.
One that is interesting is here:
http://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/director/257037/john-forrest
Balmer Lawn Road, Brockenhurst, is also the address of his co-director Jane Patricia Forrest at Forrest Farm Enterprises (JRF1) and Egan International (JRF2).
There was also an Alexander I Forrest living there in about 2002-3.
Could Jane Patricia Forrest be a now cast off wife and Alexander a son?
At all events it would seem he currently co-habits with Diane. A recent marriage is more than possible and aware of her age and political aspirations Diane opted to retain her maiden name.
There was a planning application in 2005 from Mr & Mrs J Forrest at Abingerwood, whether prior to her relationship with John Forrest or utilising either her new married name or an assumed name and style (Perfectly legal to use ANY name one may choose as long as there is no intention to defraud – I should know as I added a hyphen to my name whilst still at school and have used my name with a hyphen ever since).
Here is that planning application:

Probably none of this matters very much. The silly part is if I could only have found some basic checkable information I would very soon have lost interest in her, but it tends to bugs me that none of the details released by UKIP quite fit.
UKIP’s track record of inventing CVs and backgrounds of its ‘chosen’ plants is near consistently dishonest, which leads one to doubt as one knows as a fact UKIP can not be trusted to tell the truth.
There are no names of the “succession of major pharmaceutical companies” it is claimed she worked for, the “healthcare agency” business she established, what she was doing in Boston, or the “independent consulting business” she founded.
Googling the Scottish healthcare conference her company launched, NHS Masterclass, and HFMA and I found no reference to her at all! Which in the light of the lies Nigel Farage told us and aided David Bannerman and also Marta QAndreasen to promote gives rise to reasonable suspicions I am sure any honest individual would agree!
Only in connection with ProVen VCT does one come across this:
http://markets.ft.com/research/Markets/Tearsheets/Directors-and-dealings?s=PHV:LSE
You will note: “Ms. Diane James is Non-Executive Independent Director of ProVen Health VCT Plc.
She is an independent adviser to a number of healthcare organisations involving healthcare innovation in the Uk and Europe.
She was formerly the chair of the Surrey & Sussex CLRN (Comprehensive Local Research Network), part of the National Institute for Health Research which was established by the UK Department of Health in 2006, to support clinical innovation research in the UK.
She has a wide range of healthcare experience at senior management level in both the public and private sectors and has founded, developed and divested a specialist healthcare communications business.”
CAVEAT: This MAY be another Diane James as there is reference of an American born Diane James who has 30 years experience in Health Care – perhaps, as so often happens in UKip Diane James has confused herself with someone else (many will remember the pack of lies provided in the CV of David Bannerman!)
also note references on pages pages 12 and 28 at:

Even her education is puzzling, details proving elusive.
She is supposed to have attended Thames Valley University, but it only became a university in 1992 when she was 33 and had supposedly was establishing her own businesses. Did she manage to fit in a part-time degree there as well, or did she in fact do a course at what was then the Thames Valley College of Higher Education when she was 18 or so?
I don’t know nor especially care, but it’s typical of her that even over this there’s a question mark.
I freely admit there is a tendency not to give her the benefit of the doubt in the light of the regular dishonesty of UKIP over Nigel Farage’s chosen ‘plants’.
Her twitter thingy is at https://twitter.com/DianeUKIP
Clearly a construct for her new ambitions with UKIP, as you will note she remains an Independent in her actual political achievements, choosing NOT to represent UKIP or give her name to supporting UKIP
Finally, Farage tweeted on Feb 15, “I was at the Eastleigh campaign base before Brux today. Always travelling”. I’d already seen at
http://nigelfaragemep.co.uk/pages/posts/nigel-farage-in-eastleigh-to-help-launch-by-election-campaign-236.php
his excuse for not standing at Eastleigh himself was:
‘The reason is simple: I am leading this party into the local elections in England and then the European elections and thirdly, it’s quite busy in Brussels and I need to be there”.
Though I believe it was a sensible decision, in that for Farage to fail yet again, in a high profile by-election would serve him ill – even were it good for UKIP, which I do not believe his presence to be save amongst the chavery of the pub class who are increasingly being reduced in numbers.
Farage’s much publicised excuses bear clower inspection in the light of UKIP’s general dishonesty!
Well, the locals are not for another nine weeks after Eastleigh, and the Euros for over a year, so a look at the EP’s calendar seemed apposite:
http://www.europarl.europa.eu/pdf/general/cal2013.pdf
to see what pressing matters were tying him up over there.
The first week of the Eastleigh campaign was MEPs’ constituency week when he shouldn’t have been in Brussels at all, and weeks 2 and 3 are committee weeks which don’t involve Farage as he’s not on any committees! His most recent resignation being from The Fisheries Committee after his embarrassing failure of leadership where UKIP failed to vote on The CFP in the Parliament and it was made public that he had failed to attend the committee for a considerable time!
The only day on which he would have scheduled meetings would be the day before polling, when there are group and Conference of Presidents meetings, involving his milch cow the racist, anti homosexual, xenophobic, anti Jewish supporting EFD Group he has dragged UKIP into the gutter of EU politics to support!
So what else is he so busy doing in Brussels?
We are obviously not meant to ask!
Interesting that Marta has now gone. Looks like I was right in my predictions and the prediction that Diane James was Nigel Farage’s new plant for the job as an MEP – well I guess UKIP must face facts that there is no point in a candidate who might outshine Farage as he would soon destroy them.
The other sad fact is there is absolutely no one of any visible merit who could step up to the plate in UKIP South East, so how ever foolish Farage’s manouvering is as leader, as his track record has shown again and again he uses and abuses people for his personal gain and all too often his judgement in personnel selection is at best crass!
