    HMRC tonight announced a new policy initiative in trying to combat financial crimes which are apparently running rife across the city of London, particularly with young traders and ‘bankers’ increasingly exploited by ‘gangs’ of hedge fund managers, buying and selling ‘commodities’ across so called county lines. Deliveroo appears to be the go to food supplier of these individuals, whose lifestyle choices are placing at risk the most vulnerable members of the population, and government sources suggest that by placing targeted messages on food items, it may deter some ‘traders’ from excessive risk taking behaviour.
