Treasury officials regularly accepted invitations to lavish dinners with lobbyists for banks that were being investigated for market rigging, a new report has found.
The explosive research, which was conducted by the National Audit Office (NAO), was published on Tuesday.
It reveals that banking lobby the British Bankers’ Association was a frequent provider of hospitality to senior Treasury officials, despite the fact some of its members were being investigated by UK authorities for market rigging.
Arms manufacturer BAE Systems and auditing giants Deloitte and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) were also frequent providers of gifts and hospitality. Because each of these organizations supply services to government, the NAO said such patterns of gift giving could create conflicts of interest.
LET THEM ENJOY THEIR WINE AND FOOD, THEY DO NOT REALIZE THAT JESUS CHRIST IS ON HIS WAY, AND THEY SHALL HAVE TO GIVE AN ACCOUNT. TO PARA PHRASE WHAT CHRIST AS TOLD US, AND ALWAYS KEEP THIS IN MIND, IT SHALL BE EASIER FOR A CAMEL TO PASS THROUGH AN EYE OF A NEEDLE, THAN IT IS FOR A RICH MAN TO ENTER IN TO THE KINGDOM OF THE HEAVENLY FATHER YAHVEH. LITTLE DO THEY KNOW, THEY MAY NOT KNOW OF HOW TO DRINK THEIR WINE AND EAT THEIR FOOD, WITHOUT INDIGESTION.
