UK competition regulator fines Citi, HSBC, Morgan Stanley, Royal Bank of Canada, Deutsche Bank £100m for breaching competition law. All have history of abuses. No one prosecuted, no personal fines. Puny fines don't deter, will be passed to customers.

Steve Bannon addressing CPAC, hailing the “achievements” of the Trump administration: “Zelensky has been put in his place. And the J6ers are here at CPAC!”

Richard Madeley compared Palestine to Nazi Germany, and then said that all the children killed were collateral damage of an essential invasion. RT if him and his hideous views need to be banned from UK TV. (Richard Madeley in October 2023.)
