Simon Wilson (Simon Jules Wilson, born March 1966) is a British company director. He is a co-founder and director, together with Alistair Harris of ARK Group, of Hotch Potch Entertainment Ltd (company number 12318543), incorporated in 2019. His name appears on lists of alleged MI6 officers published by Cryptome in 1999 and 2005, which give postings in Athens (1991), Zagreb (1993), New York (1999) and Budapest (2002) and an OBE. The lists are anonymous and unverified, and his service with MI6 has not been confirmed. He is listed as resident in Oman.[1][2]
Hotch Potch Entertainment Ltd
Hotch Potch Entertainment Ltd was incorporated on 18 November 2019. Officers and persons with significant control include:
- Alistair James Harris (born September 1973; appointed 18 November 2019; resident United Arab Emirates; ownership of shares and voting rights more than 25% but not more than 50%; right to appoint or remove directors)
- Simon Jules Wilson (born March 1966; appointed 18 November 2019; resident Oman; ownership of shares and voting rights more than 25% but not more than 50%; right to appoint or remove directors)
- Helen Frances Busby (born December 1961; appointed 18 November 2019; resident England; ownership of shares and voting rights more than 25% but not more than 50%; right to appoint or remove directors)
The registered correspondence address is Lower Newnham Farm, Broadwindsor, Beaminster, England DT8 3LD. The company has no public record of significant commercial activity linked to the Syria or Yemen contractor work associated with Harris and ARK; its precise purpose is not stated in public filings.[1]
Cryptome listing
The 13 May 1999 Cryptome list of alleged MI6 officers includes the entry:
Simon Jules Wilson: 91 Athens, 93 Zagreb; dob 1966; OBE.
The lists of 27 August 2005 and 13 October 2005 expand the entry to:
Simon Jules Wilson: dob 1966; 91 Athens, 93 Zagreb, 99 New York, 02 Budapest (1 Sec).*
Cryptome used the asterisk to mark names it had found in the Foreign Office's HM Diplomatic Service Overseas Reference List of August 2005. The asterisk shows only that the person was then a serving diplomat.
The same name and date of birth appear in the 276-unique-names compilation. Cryptome’s lists have never been officially confirmed or denied by the UK government (standard policy is neither confirm nor deny), and the Foreign Office has said that some of those named were not SIS staff.[5] The full name and year of birth on the lists match the Companies House record for the Hotch Potch director. This match does not show that the list entry itself is accurate. See Cryptome MI6 lists.[2][6]
