Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Financial Services Bill.
Financial Services Bill
Does not the ding-dong of the last four or five minutes illustrate the dangers of political interference in regulation? Once we get back to the subject of the Bank of England, and given that the top 1% of taxpayers provide 28% of total taxes, can we have regulation in the future less by populism on bonuses, salaries and the rest, and more by the raising of the right eyebrow of the Governor of the Bank of England?
