‘Bedminster Green-Wash’ development? What a palaver.
A mortgage lender to the Bemmy student hell site project, Shawbrook, has been ordered by the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) to repay £100 million fiddled from vulnerable pensioners who unsuspectingly invested in non-existent time-share properties. That figure could exponentially multiply next year following the conclusion of the FCA investigation.
Described as ‘local’ by the Bristol Post, Shawbrook’s HQ is in London and their parent company’s HQs are in New York and Berlin. Luxury holiday resorts in the Canaries, unfamiliar to the majority of Bedminster dwellers, were used to lure elderly investors and steal their money after a life-time of labour.
Not content with the constant pounding of pneumatic jackhammers and drills from dawn ‘til dusk, the chopping down of our trees and the persistent ‘beep-beep’ of vehicles reversing all day. These fuckers robbed our Nans and Granfers to prop up Bristol University.
Imagine this happening in Westbury-On-Trym.
