If you were a director of a company in compulsory liquidation or creditors' voluntary liquidation, you'll be banned for 5 years from forming, managing or promoting any business with the same or similar name to your liquidated company. This includes the company's registered name and any trading names (if it had any).
To find out who objected to the strike-off of your company, you will need to reach out to Companies House directly. There are several ways to do this. One of them is to send a written letter to the registrar stating your request.
“Strike off” refers to the removal of the company name from the company register, resulting in its dissolution. This method is used when a company is not in operation, is not carrying on a business, has ceased to carry on a business or if it has overdue fees or penalties.

You often can but in most cases when the company is insolvent it is not a good idea, particularly if it is about to go into liquidation. The idea of a director abandoning the ship and walking away from their insolvent company in such circumstances is a potentially risky approach.
