related to banking ?? Do you think my mind is too devious?? 😃😃
Donkeyman! 👎🤔👎
PS, not sure why our bankers don't want rules?
It was perfectly obvious that our financial sector including shares trading were never going to get an equivalence deal from the moment they agreed a deal to trade Swiss shares again.
IMHO Boris & the government knew full well that equivalence would never happen after seeing how the EU has been treating the Swiss.
In financial services & banking the rules have changed but it's not made anything like the difference that had previously been suggested, because in fact the number of UK financial jobs has actually increased.
BTW it's easy enough to find out why our bankers don't want to stick to EU rules if you look.
None of this has any real bearing on fishing and while you might think they are directly linked they are not.
Fishing was included in the deal agreed.
The financial sector was not.
I don't know quite how you think that the EU can apply pressure over fishing because of financial services when we appear to have already made our stance on financial services clear?
Like I say, it must be the case too because no way would the EU deal when we have a deal with the Swiss, and that much is obvious and has been for some time.
Certainly from well before the UK/Swiss trading deal was made official.
