Re-Spin: The episode the money launderers don't want you to hear

To mark the summer season, we're bringing you some of our favourite episodes from The Laundry archives!


In this episode, originally published in February 2023, Marit Rødevand is joined by award-winning author and investigative journalist Oliver Bullough.


London has become a safe haven for the world's wealthiest people to hide their stolen money and spend it with no questions asked.


Through his books – 'Moneyland' and 'Butler to the World' – Bullough explains how the lack of regulation in the UK has enabled oligarchs, criminals, and kleptocrats to use London's banks to launder their wealth.


The pair discuss all this and more in this episode.
