Bank of England Allegedly Secretly Instructed Barclays To Manipulate Libor Interest Rates

A phone conversation between deputy Bank of England governor Paul Tucker and a 'senior' manager at Barclays is said to have led to traders 'mistakenly' believing they were working under an instruction from the central bank to fix the Libor -- the interest rate at which banks lend money to each other.

Expenses row swept under the rug, Lord Heath and the 15 Trillion from Federal Reserve to banks in UK with no interest, before the bank bailouts!!. UK tax payer just payed billions for the queens jubilee, while she rakes the money in being the owner of BP and many other scandals linked to her 13 family counterparts of the illuminati like her best friends the Rothschild's. The elderly that have worked all their lives have even lost the privilege to have the streets lights on at night.

It's always fun with mainstream news to catch the absolute lie...here, it's where he says the Scotland bank is 80 percent owned by tax payers. Not true. Tax payers own nothing. It's all a charade. Nothing will change until there is a global tax strike....a boycott on abuse.

Of course the bank of England did, they control interest rates, they manipulate the entire economy, they control our money! Central bankers are the most powerful people in the world, when a world bank is created, whoever is the head of that, will be the most powerful person on the planet

theres a limit to how much light you can shine on a book before the red ink shows in the windows on a cloudy night from a shady bank. Investments in big balloons and air, someone pulls a pin from the hair and boom - a banker leaves the chair.
