The Headlines So Far Today: 16 October 2015

Guardian — A Tory voter breaks down on TV over tax credits cuts.[SH: watch video, it’s quite clear she was happy for £12 billion in benefits to hit ‘those people,’ but when they hit HER, she cries what a hard worker she is and how she deserves the benefits . . . i.e., presumably, exactly how ‘those people’ feel about themselves.]

Bloomberg.com – Credit Suisse: Clients Are More Confused Than Ever and Are Cashing Out [SH: their investors remind me of the confused Tory in the headline above]

The Times – Billions are laundered in British banks [SH: no surprise here, but negates the legitimacy of any argument from these tainted banks regarding bitcoin]

TheGuardian.com – Average monthly rent hits record high of £816, highlighting housing shortage [SH: another ‘no surprise,’ but also related to the previous headline regarding London’s role as money laundering capital]
