"No 10 pressured me to drop anti-money laundering measures, says ex-minister"

En tidligere minister i UK avslører i The Guardian 15. februar 2022:

"No 10 pressured me to drop anti-money laundering measures, says ex-minister"

"A former Conservative minister, once at the heart of efforts to clamp down on money laundering in London, has revealed that during Theresa May’s premiership, No 10 “leant on him” when he tabled amendments to introduce a public register of overseas property owners.

Lord Faulks said he had first tried to put the register into the criminal finances bill in 2017 and then again into a government bill on money laundering in 2018. He had described the overseas ownership of “dirty money” in London as an obscenity."

......................

Ex-ministeren sier han ble lurt til å tro det ble jobbet med tiltak i regjeringen.

Så hans innspill kunne utgå.

Men nå sier han: -Ingting er blitt gjort av UKs konservative regjering.
 

Det er tydelig at å motarbeide  "skitne penger" ... det prioriteres ikke  av Toryene.
