'It seems the UK wants to undermine our financial services' – John I. Cline
He posed this question on the television programme Cross Talk, which was aired on Saturday February 27, 2016 on CBN Television Channel 51 between the hours of 7:00 pm and 8:00 pm.
“The UK Government has been on this path where it seems they want to undermine financial services. That's a big threat. And they way they have been trying to do it [is to make us] reveal the beneficial owner of the companies that we form,” he said.
“Anytime they are successful in doing that, in forcing the hand of their overseas territories, they know, the UK Government knows, the United States knows and these companies that are pushing for this know that they will destroy our industry,” he said.
According to Cline, it seems that they are hell bent on doing that and it looks like they want to “send us back into slavery.”
He asked whether the UK was just seeking to self preserve or whether they were just greedy.
Bishop Cline said that the UK and other large countries don't live by the same rules and this makes him believe that they are out to destroy smaller countries like the VI.
He said there seem to be a lot of attempts to marginalise the Caribbean islands and the VI is not immune to that.
He said because of the some 60 percent of revenue which comes from financial services, if that is to be undermined then it would mean that people will not be able to educate their children and afford the amenities to which they would have been accustomed.
“I am not on the inside so I don't know what the leaders of the country are putting their heads together and coming up with. But I hope that they are thinking and coming up with something,” said Cline.

Is y'all stirring the nest knowing full well y'all insulated from the stings, so continue preach, preacher. We ain't stupid. Well, not all of we who voted for change and got none, I mean.
the time the computer strangely gets knocked off the net, or the phone calls, say it is banking business or the content
is about all this stuff - it gets cut off or cannot complete. the US and UK are the most able to to do this via their
'intelligence' agencies. someone is desperate and crazy to keep anyone around here from knowing anything...
someone is absolutely remotely intefereing with anything to do with banking by those in the BVI. Guess who?
Do you really think the UK wants the BVI to fail? Then it has to spend lots of money bailing the BVI out. It's still got overall responsibility for the British Overseas Territories - it would be pretty stupid to cause it to fail.
