The UK financial regulator the FCA has, quite correctly, taken big steps to encourage whistleblowing. It knows that if the London markets are to be credible and seen as credible then whistleblowers, and indeed, journalists need to be able to report investment and financial crime. The FCA will thus be horrified by today’s hard evidence publishedHERE that thugs Nick Leeson and Seth Freedman are taking money from fraudsters or investors in fraud to threaten me, but one suspects others, to protect fraud. In fact I know the FCA is horrified as I have been discussing this with it since last week. I have now written to its CEO Nikhil Rathi.

In today’s podcast I discuss my visit today to the Shipmans and frustration with NHS IT to get an appointment for another ailment, Versarien (VRS) and the issue of whisteblowers and then gold miners as I add to one holding and consider betting the ranch on it. I look at Centamin (CEY), Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), Bluebird Merchant Ventures (BMV), Ariana (AAU) and Amaroq (AMRQ).

In this bearcast I start with the issue of the abject failure of regulation and my support for Class Actions - let market forces deal with the fraudsters where the State has failed. Then onto oil and why M&A action will not save the juniors on the AIM casino. Finally to what happens as a PLC goes into death throes, Quindell, its share price. the motivation of whistleblowers and more.
