UK freezes London property linked to Putin ally after ICIJ report - ICIJ: Since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, the U.K. government has faced criticism for ...

icij.org/investigations/pandora-papers/uk-freezes-london-property-linked-to-putin-ally-after-icij-report/

Quick Glance: Freezing of London Property Following ICIJ Report

Roughly a week after the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists revealed that the London townhouse remained untouched by sanctions against the high-ranking Kremlin official, U.K. authorities froze Igor Komarov's property.

In February, the ongoing connection between Komarov and the townhouse in Herbert Crescent - a prime location in Central London - was highlighted. The property was acquired in 2007 for over $16.5 million through a British Virgin Islands-based shell company under his control.

Instead of directly listing Komarov, a trust was indicated as the beneficial owner of the BVI company, Wastom Holdings Ltd., in the submissions under the U.K.'s Register of Overseas Entities.

It is suggested that the British Government should now disclose details about trusts overseeing properties directly or through companies. This transparency measure would aid in uncovering assets owned by Putin's associates and corrupt individuals, leaving them no refuge.

Quick Glance: Mark Menzies: MP Accused of Campaign Fund Misuse, Party Exit, and Future Election Abstention

An elected official accused of mishandling campaign funds has departed from the Conservative Party and declared no intention to participate in the upcoming general election.

Following allegations reported in The Times, Mark Menzies revealed his decision after purportedly using political contributions to address medical costs and settle debts incurred from being confined by individuals demanding a substantial ransom for his release.

Upon a request for scrutiny by Labour, Lancashire Police disclosed their evaluation of 'details' concerning Mr. Menzies. An internal inquiry by the Conservative Party has been initiated to explore potential improprieties in the utilization of their financial resources.

Additionally, the party's internal oversight body will assess whether Mr. Menzies' conduct contravened the Nolan principles of public ethics, encompassing traits like altruism, probity, and candor. The spokesperson affirmed, 'We are prepared to collaborate with law enforcement, if they deem our insights beneficial to any inquiry they opt to conduct.'

Quick Glance: Liz Truss: From Premiership to Resignation in 49 Days

Liz Truss became Prime Minister and resigned after just 49 days, despite her husband's prediction that 'it would all end in tears'.

Truss assumed office on September 6, 2022, succeeding Boris Johnson, but faced early challenges and personal struggles.

Despite implementing economic measures and facing political turbulence, Truss resigned after a mini-budget led to a pensions crisis.

She reflects on her failed tenure, attributing blame to structural issues and drawing parallels to the controversial football manager Brian Clough.

Quick Glance: Harry and Meghan Face Conundrum Over Balmoral Invitation

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could find themselves in a complicated situation, according to an expert, if King Charles invites them to join the Royal Family at Balmoral.

It is expected that King Charles will extend an invitation to Harry and Meghan to visit the Scottish retreat this year, as it is customary for the monarch to invite family members during the holiday season.

Royal expert and author Tom Quinn suggests that an invitation to the retreat could present a 'difficult' situation for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

King Charles has reportedly extended an olive branch to Prince Harry and Meghan by 'hinting' at a visit to Balmoral this summer to improve relationships within the Royal family.

Inflation set to fall again – what it means for you and your money: Experts predict Wednesday's figures will show inflation sitting at about 3.1 per cent

inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/money/saving-and-banking/inflation-fall-means-you-money-3003802

Quick Glance: Powell Warns of Lack of Progress on Inflation

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that the U.S. economy, while otherwise strong, has not seen a return of inflation to the central bank's target.

Powell mentioned that the current policy should remain in place as inflation has not declined quickly enough and there has been no further progress towards the 2% goal.

Since July 2023, the Fed has maintained its benchmark interest rate in a target range between 5.25% and 5.5%, the result of 11 consecutive rate hikes.

Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.
