Below is my email to
@APPGbanking on 23 May 2019 when they 'fixed' their broken link on their website so I could finally see who was funding them.
I grew suspicious of the APPG in 2014 when the Chair Gueto Bebb, had promised to ask the FCA to meet with me to discuss my concerns over Hidden Credit Lines at a dinner in Wales, just a week later he refused & suggested he had never said that.
He had - over 200 people heard him...
@efgbricklayer was there & can verify the events.
All of the Bully Banks directors were there, most of whom repeatedly told me I was wrong about this as they collected their membership fees and fabricated the names of hundreds of members, to pretend they had 2,000 members.
That was the figure
@TheFCA had told them they needed - 10% of the victim population to represent them all in negotiations with the FCA, on the IRHP Review - compensation scheme.
Bully Banks directors told members they were chasing £30 billion with losses & consequential losses. The dire negotiations led to a paltry £2.2 billion & virtually no consequential losses.
@TheFCA made every bank sign an undertaking their Review would comply with the 'Rules', then called all of the Skilled Persons in & replaced the Rules with the 'Sales Standards'.
The Standards did not include consideration of the Hidden Credit Lines or their effect, which was to destroy tens of thousands of SMEs, with the undisclosed credit breaching Loan to Values and triggering SRM, GRG & BSU transfers and insolvency.
Hidden Credit Lines on
@UlsterBankNI &
@LloydsBank Fixed Rate Loans were just a major fraud
@TheFCA is still desperately trying to cover up despite
@jameshurley 4 excellent articles in the Times.
The FCA specifically excluded consideration of 'contingent liabilities' and credit lines, the banks lied that the losses were not 'foreseeable' and kept tens of billions stolen from SMEs.
At the dinner in Wales, I was representing the widow of a victim, who on the verge of losing his home had taken his life to protect his widow, the bank had enforced a PG based on an undisclosed £190k swap credit line & was going to sell the house to collect its profits from the fraud.
At the same time Bully Banks directors were staying in a 2 bed flat in London, with expense cards paid by victims contributions, whilst I and others supported the victim & his wife pro bono because they had no money.
Bully Banks choice of lawyers Slater & Gordon wanted £2k on the table before they would even read the file & refused to help.
Five years later the APPG allegedly representing swap & Fixed Rate Loan victims, still would not expose the fraud.
Victims I explained the Hidden Credit Lines to, approached the Secretariat and then Chair
@kevinhollinrake who refused to write to the banks on the matter.
The funding I exposed below & the people the APPG were promoting to represent victims, amongst other concerns, led to an MP with integrity
@normanlamb step down as Co Chair just as he did from the whistleblowing APPG when
@CompassnInCare exposed similar concerns about WBUK.
Sir Norman had not been aware of it because rather than disclose it on the Parliament website
@NatWestGroup and the other banks paid the money to the Secretariat, who then donated it to the APPG...
Was it my exposing the bank funding that led to them blocking me on X, or might it be because I allege that they along with
@TheFCA have misled Parliament about this magnitude and effect of this fraud since inception?
Or was it my reporting that the APPG's Director of Policy and head of the Secretariat had the benefit of a 3 bed flat in Horseferry for 2 years around this time worth circa £50k pa provided by
@SMEAllianceLtd Directors.
Or the fact that I raised my concerns that the same directors were then promoted them as stakeholders on the sham BBRS compensation scheme & the
@LloydsBank morally bankrupt Foskett Compensation schemes.
Or perhaps is it because I reported my concerns that a Parliamentary staffer was failing to declare such a substantial benefit and I have the evidence that the Commons Registrar was misled about the benefit.
Bebb got the Tory 'Whip' role after Chairing the APPG, an interesting promotion for someone allegedly taking on banks &
@TheFCA but then he never was successful on either front...
The
@SMEAllianceLtd directors quadrupled their compensation in the Foskett Panel after agreeing new Rules in the Foskett panel that destroyed the compensation rights of many REAL victims.
Victims bankrupted because of the fraud then faced the same fate again.
The BBRS set up to provide redress to 60,000 victims paid millions out to its Board, peanuts out to about 6 victims then shut down. Controlled at the start by the banks via a hidden membership, it was a sham, a con, promoted by
@APPGbanking &
@SMEAllianceLtd in conjunction with
@UKFtweets
Sir David Foskett broke his promises of meeting with any victim, even if they had a Trustee. His team refusing David Morgan's widow a meeting on 5 occasions. Leaving her to fight a fee hungry Trustee, collecting funds for non existent debts & failing to investigate potentially fraudulent proofs of debt.
Perhaps its time to stop letting the Banks & FCA pick their usual 'safe pairs of hands', to negotiate with now the largest financial fraud in living memory is going to be exposed.
If the Public Inquiry we are demanding leads to the tens of billions of assets stolen from SME's being returned with interest, possibly the largest boost to the economy & Revenue available, then those same bad actors must be nowhere near any discussions or negotiations.
This time the benefits and compensation should be for the victims not the pseudo advisers.
