GLOBAL ANTI-CORRUPTION SUMMIT IN LONDON Update 23 August, 2020

Well obviously, even to the plebs, nothing has changed. On the contrary, under PM Johnson, it has gone worse. The corruption is in full swing. Tories spending Taxpayers' money by £mlns given to their friends, donors and families.

People are starving, freezing and living on the street. They now facing evictions  by 100,000s because of unpaid rents due to Covid lockdown. At first Johnson promised No Eviction but he and his gang changed their minds and giving short term eviction notices.


UPDATE 17 March 2019 -- Doubt it made any difference despite spending all that money for that meeting.


UPDATE: 20 May, 2016 --
We have not heard the result of it? Was it again another useless exercise at taxpayers' money. Whatever the explanation it was an useless and expensive exercise led by no other but PM David Cameron.

The anti-corruption summit is not chaired by any other but PM David Cameron. It is a joke but no laughing matter.

On top of it all he calls Afghanistan and Nigeria a nation "fantastically corrupt". 



Before we go into further details it has to be mentioned that Mr Cameron shows again manners which should be questioned and reprimanded. It is not a behaviour of a statesman especially with such a high education.

According to the report in The Independent, London is the tax haven of the world and of money laundering of the global drug trade.

How can David Cameron chair a Global Anti-Corruption Summit trying to show a white vest and trying to lay down the laws is anyone's guess?

The Foreign Aid is a thorn in the side of the public and in view of their hardship, starvation and homelessness critic it is not unfounded. What the public did not know because it was well under cover African nations lose twice as much in-off-shore corporate cash flows to a place like London than they received in foreign aid. UK foreign aid is often tied to private finance infrastructure projects in developing countries. It allows tax avoidance while the City of London offers high priced financial services and this in turn the third world nations end-up with unplayable debts.

Wow what a dirty trick and they put on a show of being sympathetic and trying to help the poor people. No wonder David Cameron insists on continuing paying all those Foreign Aid programmes.

A record shows that between 2002 and 2013 the UK gave £663million on its aid budged to Private Infrastructure Development Group supporting Public-Private Partnership infrastructures.

While Prime Minister forever pledges honesty, openness and full transparency he quietly does the opposite. He gagged the press, tries to cut Freedom of Information, gag charities, sold the Royal Mail in the shortest time, passes bills through without debates and voting, bombing Syria without permission of MPs and so fourth.

Hardly a record of honesty, openness and transparency.
He might have even rigged the GE2015 because 26 MPs are being investigated by the police for not declaring the full expenditures when campaigning for the General Election. Hopefully the truth comes out.

The Global Anti-Corruption Summit has three points.

Exposure of corruption (if followed through many heads will roll)
Punish its perpetrators (they have to build a new prison)
Drive out the culture of corruption (all the British Isle will be bankrupt)

In 2011 George Osborne and David Gauke signed a tax non-prosecution-agreement with Switzerland which led Switzerland off the hook and it promised to refund some of the UK lot of tax evader.

George Osborne stated to have received back £5billion but the real true figure show a merely £135million.

The US fined HSBC $1.9billion for running an extensive money laundering operation for Mexican drug cartels.

The two senior HSBC directors in charge at the time Stephen Green were involved were invited into the Government and made Lord by David Cameron. Rona Fairhead is chair for the BBC Trust which judges the BBC.

In 2012 Barclays was fined by the US and UK authority for rigging LIBOR interest rates.

RBS, HBSC and 16 other global banks were involved too. It should have been a judge lead inquiry where witness have to tell the truth under oath.

David Cameron changed it to an useless MPs led parliamentary inquiry.

To avoid further bank scandals the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) was scrapped on 1 January, 2016.

Martin Wheatley, CEO, was removed for being to tough on banks.


To repeat again, David Cameron with a track record like that organising anti-corruption conference preaching about to stop corruption is a joke but not for a laugh.

Again, all these shows will cost the taxpayers' money. He most probably will set up a new body to deal with anti-corruption and again it will be a waste of time and money but it is taxpayers' money which does not worry David Cameron.
