When Andrew Griffith (#Tory City Minister) writes to the #FinancialConductAuthority to request they go easy on unregistered #Crpyto firms who keep advertising to customers after the new ban, having already written to #FCA requesting they don't come down too hard on banks violating the recent requirement to put consumers' interest first in the management of #investments...
I think its safe to say he's more interestined in the financial wellbeing of his City chums than in the safety of #voters!
So I see the #FinancialConductAuthority has found 'no evidence' of #debanking linked to political views....
@Frances_Coppola suggested they would conclude 'nothing to see here' & they have.
But, as we know that all sorts of political organisations have had banking services refused, we must assume that this conclusion was only possible by drawing the terms of reference of the enquiry pretty narrowly.
Which unfortunately leaves the problem where it was before #NigelFarage started bleating!

Well you just couldn't make it up:
Andrew Griffith, City of London minister, is worried that the #FinancialConductAuthority's new powers to 'ensure' #financialservices firms act in consumers' interests will have a negative impact on the sector!
So lets get this right: stopping investment firms putting their own interests first will effect their profitability?
He claims its because of the likelihood of spurious law suits, but more likely because ripping off their clients will be constrained!
