Thank goodness some people in Jersey can still ask awkward questions.
And that some want to hold the local profession to account.
Good work here by Mike Dun.
After all, why does the local charge of Woolworths owe £160m to GMAC, so removing almost any chance of a proper payout to local suppliers, or decent compensation to Jersey staff?
It’s a fair question — because the debt clearly did not arise there.
Thanks for reading this post.

I’m surprised you haven’t yet mentioned the resignation yesterday of the head of Christian Aid in Jersey, seemingly because he did not support the attack on Jersey’s finance industry by TJN and Attac, Christian Aid in Jersey has clearly been losing the financial support of local institutions which seems to be lesson in not biting the hand that feeds you.

So one Anglican clergyman would rather support the tax avoidace industry rather than an international development charity. It is hardly a news story which probably explains why only Channel television have reported it.

I wonder if the ex head of Christian Aid in Jersey had a nice little earner in the system, and after repeated confrontation with some raw conclusions from sound evidential reasoning that there was a causal relationship between the ‘shadow banking’ industry and widespread deprivation of resources for the most vulnerable, he found he couldn’t sleep at night?
A quietly whispered “don’t bite the hand that feeds you, old boy” at the Club one evening, maybe. Sad.
