At Last!
At last a little common sense being shown by someone who could make a difference! The people who will lose out from RDR are the ones who need advice the most! FACT! Those who can afford to pay monthly for advice are amongst the small minority in this country and realistically could "afford" to have even bad advice. However Joe Public will NOT pay for advice and will do 2 minutes browsing the internet or ask his Aunty Joan and make the wrong decision! FACT! Make a difference! Lobby your M.P. NOW!!!!!

Light in all this darkness!
Thank the Lord we have an MP with a head on his shoulders and brain in it that works! Mark Hoban now needs to show his support for this stance!

Wow
What just happened? Have I woken up in an alternate reality? Since when did politicians start making common sense speeches? Let's hope he can still talk common sense when they get into power.

RDR no more
Before RDR can start the ABI, FSA and any other interested parties will have to persuade 26 other European countries that commission payments for advice will be illegal. Does anyone really, honestly think RDR will happen?

Common sense
Yes at last if only we could believe this chap is going to support his comments with action!!

At long last
What can I say? A man who seems to know that this RDR will value no-one but the FSA. The majority of clients have been with us for years building up small/medium fund values they can't afford to pay for advice; who is going to help them - the banks - RIGHT - I think not!!

Goodbye Angela....
Hallelujah! Get your coat Angela Eagles, and have a joint RDR / Personal accounts shredding session on the way out! Mind you, by the time they are in power Nigel will probably have been shuffled around to be minister of silly walks or something…..
