Yes, it is. Which doesn't _at all_ negate anything I said.
- hogFeast 5y agoThen why say it? If you are equating oligarchs to criminals then why does it matter that they bring money into the UK? And yes, it does. That is why the UK was one of the first signatories to CRS, that is why the UK complied fully with FATCA, that is why the UK has some of the strongest AML processes anywhere, that is why the UK applies its law extraterritorially to pursue the proceeds of crime, that is why the UK brought in the tech tax...this is all totally inconsistent with what the UK has actually done.
