According to this pastbin document, https://pastebin.com/YuqH96CU, John Podesta uses JP Ash as an alias in the UK, so I thought I'd do a little searching.

There are two properties owned by "JP Ash and Sons" at Updown Farm House, Ramsgate Rd, Margate CT9 4DT, UK, but that's far from the Lakes district.

So, at this point nothing found in the Lakes district of the UK...

Looking into company info for JP Ash & Sons https://companycheck.co.uk/nonLimitedCompany/945858/J-P-ASH--SONS-FARMERS/executive

Shaddick & Co. is registered at the same address : http://companyplus.co.uk/company-no/04424153

It's an address in the county of Kent.

Then I came across this comment on an online article : http://www.thanetlife.co.uk/2006/03/democracy-whats-that-then.html

Sorry Cyril, Bad News, you ARE dead, as you thought. However one of your contacts Steven Payne is still around, reputed to be making even more money than you did with your printing press, from his office in Hawley Sq Margate he is running St Nicholas childrens homes ( in Westgate by the railway bridge and other places) for money man Mr John Shaddick. Is this home responsible for some of the feral children in Westgate? Who knows? who cares? He certainly doesn't!

Former Director of Social Services in Camden... (that's the borough for Hampstead..just saying..). Looking for records there: Fury over killer stalker inquiry

THE mother of a 12-year-old boy who was murdered by a devil-worshipping stalker condemned as "a terrible joke" a report that concluded yesterday that his death could not have been prevented. But yesterday's report, which took 18 months to compile and made 59 recommendations, concluded that Diego's death "could not have been foreseen". Jane Held, director of Camden Social Services who spoke on behalf of all the agencies involved, dismissed suggestions that the report was a "whitewash".

Interesting that 'JP Ash' should lead us down this path, is it not?
