A real eye- opener. I was musing the other day about how Putin, in the face of all of the sanctions, is able to access his hidden caches of funds all over the world to finance his war. Here is the answer. It seems that the British Economic system is designed to hide the assets of the kleptocrats of the world, principally Russian Oligarchs. These criminals are allowed to operate with impunity, especially in London, shielding their ill-gotten gains by everything from shell companies to football clubs (like Chelsea) and mega-yachts and art galleries. The book is being released in The US in June but is available in the U.K.
I don't know why agnostic will not allow me to post a link to the above-mentioned book. I have tried everything I can't think of. It's called "Butler to the World".
Oops. Delete the repeated portion...
Got it. Sorry. I don't know how that happened. I tried to add a link to the book on Amazon but was not able. This isn't like Facebook.
