Bell Pottinger founder speaks out as firm expelled from UK body
5 September 2017
Cape Town - Bell Pottinger co-founder Lord Tim Bell said in a radio interview on Monday evening that the whole board of Bell Pottinger should resign due to the work it did in South Africa.
Bell, who quit as the company’s chairperson in August 2016, was speaking to Bruce Whitfield on Talk Radio 702's Money Show.
Bell said it was a ”great pity” that Bell Pottinger had been kicked out of the UK-based Public Relations and Communications Association (PRCA) due to the work it had done for Oakbay and the Gupta family.
“They had done something very stupid to get themselves in that situation,” he said.
