Well that does it we now know the reason behind Niddy's problems with HSBC Niddy is a PEP. I can't believe he's a Politically Exposed Person. More Like a Pot Smoking Extrovert Person (sorry Niddy)

Was not the HSBC one of the first banks to threaten to move its operations abroad if the Government applied to many new Banking Charges or Windfall Taxes. Looks to me like HSBC are trying to Wag the Dog again.

Lets hope that this rattles some of our politicians and they find the balls to fight back. At least now if they feel threatened and badly treated by the big banks they will understand how folks like us have been feeling for years.

I hate to say it , but this shows HSBC dont give a shit about anybody in the UK. They are so big and as they didn't take government money no one can really hold them to account. I dont think they are bluffing either when they say they may mover from the UK which would cost the government billions, so as I say again they can do what they like!!!!
