     Did she jump or was she pushed?

     The head of the Financial Ombudsmen service, Abby Thomas, has quit.

     Its not long since Rachel Reeves criticised the Ombudsmen & other regulators for not being sufficiently focused on business interests & growth; too often they'd taken the side of consumers in complaints about financial services misconduct.

     So, deregulating the financial services sector by a range of means continues... what could possible go wrong?

     I don't know; 2008?
