@peterbrown Oh come on, when has Edinburgh ever beaten the Corporation of London at money laundering lol.

@inpc never. They are the world Centre for money-laundering. That’s why they voted in favour of Brexit- they wanted to avoid the new regulations.

@peterbrown But you stated that London had overtaken Edinburgh for money laundering?
Show threadPeter Brown16h ago
@inpc perhaps I used the wrong word. But there is money laundering going on albeit not by Edinburgh or Glasgow folk but through anonymous limited partnerships.
@theferret have a piece on it today

@peterbrown @theferret Yeah I was messing around as, without doubt, London is the biggest money laundering centre on the planet.

I seriously hope it's not something the Scots wish to emulkate (I'm sure you don't, thankfully).
