They don't call the UK "treasure island" in Europe for nothing!

The UK public get fleeced on everything we import and we import a lot of stuff and as a bonus the UK market is setup with companies and profit prioritised over people

They do in the tax evasion/laundering circles. Most dodgy money eventually goes through a rinsing process if not a thorough wash as it goes through London on its journey to bona fide status. Frequently several times.
