Steve Batkin - Thursday. 11.8.2016: Why Didn't He Go To Prison? Above image viewers' left with blue shirt and tie is former Barclays Bank Chairperson Marcus Agius who's married to Katherine Rothschild from the Rothschild banking dynasty; viewers' right with hand raised is family friend and new British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson. Mr Agius as well as Barclays former Chairperson was also the former Chairperson of the British Bankers' Association the body responsible for compiling Libor from the information submitted by banks: illegally manipulating Libor is done to make money from trading or to give the impression other banks thought it was a better risk to lend to than it was. Anyway what Mr Agius said to a BBC business journalist: "unacceptable standards of behaviour have dealt a devastating blow to Barclays reputation" and "the buck stops with me and I must acknowledge responsibility by standing aside". Mr Agius was a senior British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) director while all this was going on and avoided any serious scrutiny or ridicule from the BBC, needless to say the BBC never mentioned the fact that he should have ended up in a court of law and sent to prison. Barclays was fined £290 million by the toothless Financial Services Authority (FSA) but as already stated in this article Mr Agius was left untouched. Mr Agius also made the decision to step down as the Chairperson of the British Bankers' Association but went on to and still is running other major British based financial institutions!
