Tuition Fees..........
The ``Student loan Company``...the controversial company that collects repayments
from graduates salary have been taking to much.
63,000 former students have had £36.5 million taken from their pay packets over
and above what they were loaned.
It is now up to the students to sort out their own refund......
To add salt to the students wounds Ed Lester CEO of the company was paid through a
private company to ``avoid ``paying thosands of pounds from his Tax Bill.....
Private enterprise.......

After HSBC laundering money allegation, Standard and Charter seem to be the second
Bank to be accused of laundering money.
Standard and Charter `appear`to be continuing the Banks anti-social...anti- society activities.
It is alleged they have laundered $ 250 billion for Iran.
Standard and Charter shares `plunge`25 %...is it the `market place` being nervous
or do they know something ?
This is the latest blow to the ``reputation`` of the City of London.Rule breaking in
the City of London is now widespread and contempt for the regulations has become
institutionised.
The latest scandals are just a sign that the culture is running riot without checks in
place.
If you do something obviously fraudulent as fixing rates and can then get a new job..
.....Bankers involved in the Libor probe had changed jobs......something is completely
wrong with the system.
Banks ,Bankers are truely the pits....paraih`s of commerce.....and their not alone.....

Reg - your personal vendetta against the City is increasingly tiresome.
For a more balanced and informed view on the Standard Chartered issue people should read my blog, updated this morning. I am quoting a Labour MP who suggests that the US are deliberately out to damage the City of London.

Courtesy Independent.....a different perspective....
US regulators have Britain`s ``wild West`` Bank culture in their sights.
Fears of spreading damage to UK Finance Sector one large shareholder in Banking
stocks is considering ditching `all` its investments in the Finance Sector due to Libor
scandal and money laundering in Britains Banks.
Treasury Select Committee member John Mann has called for a government inquiry
into money laundering and Libor scandal which has the US regulators now having the
British Banks in their sights to shift business from London to New York.
The City of London have brought this problem on themselves and the British
people.........
The British Parliament should instigate an unbiased and far reaching investigation into
money laundering in Britain,involving British Banks and endangering the City of
London and the well-being of British interests and the British people.

What happened to that quaint old British notion "innocent until proven guilty"?
This is muck raking at its best by US regulators who have singularly failed to adequately bring to task any US banker or ratings agency despite their glaring involvement in the global financial crisis.

Also the alleged practices do not contravene any UK laws
