Come on! Has it ever been any different? There are whole industries created to skin the poor and vulnerable: the PayDay loans etc.

What a ridiculous story. Banks rip ALL of us off. It's just that we are smartening up at different speeds.

Wow! That’s before Brexit “deal or no deal” discrimination against poor sick & disabled has been going on for years!

Why didn’t he mention it when he was a board member at the FCA then.......

Next cash will go.

The HMRC discriminates against me every f*****g week
