Yeah, what do they know about lending and taxes and making profits and managing ISAs.0 -
OK, it was bankers who helped Greece hide their sovereign debt so that they could join the euro and we know how that turned out. Maybe the UK government will get advice from bankers with scruples (surely there must be some out there?).0

The consultation has concluded, and the outcome is:1.9 On balance, the government believes that the proposed approach set out in its consultation document is the most appropriate method of implementing the policy, subject to certain modifications set out in this summary document. It intends to publish draft legislation for technical consultation later this year, with a view to legislating to allow peer-to-peer loans to be held in an ISA from 6 April 2016.

Do you really think of Goldman Sachs as "the bankers"? They don't offer ISAs do they?
Anyway, the euro application of Greece fooled nobody; the eurozone wanted faked numbers so they could be admitted.Free the dunston one next time too.0
