His intervention was “Chancellor Osborne insinuated in his letter of September 10th that the US was unfairly targeting UK banks by seeking settlements that were significantly higher than ‘comparable’ settlements with US banks.” - See more at: http://business-reporter.co.uk/2016/07/ ... g8Irs.dpuf
Not exactly earth shattering stuff. It seems to me he was just pointing out an unfairness.

Come on Captain, The first one is in the US and was the risk to the USmarket. The second one was in Switzerland. You need to do better. Can I point you to something obvious here HSBC is not a british bank. The clue is in the name. Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation. The have a big base in London but are not a British bank.

In all fairness he was protecting a British business.

That's his job.

Surely no one is saying the Yanks sh** themselves when George speaks?
