"A part of the fortune of the Queen of England comes from drug trafficking."~~Jacques Cheminade, candidate for the 2012 French presidential election
Britain’s financial regulator has fined the British queen’s bank for money laundering failures as a French presidential candidate has said part of the queen’s fortune “comes from drug trafficking.”
The Financial Services Authority (FSA) has fined the British queen’s bank, Coutts Bank, 8.75 million pounds for failing to carry out correct checks on “politically exposed persons” and prevent money laundering.
“The failings at Coutts were serious, systemic and were allowed to persist for almost three years. They resulted in an unacceptable risk of Coutts handling the proceeds of crime,” the FSA said in a statement posted on its official website.
On 21 March, Jacques Cheminade, an independent presidential candidate running in the French election, said, “a part of the fortune of the Queen of England comes from drug trafficking.”
“No, not any property, there are several other sources. But it is a series of trafficking in which, yes, there is trafficking drugs,” Cheminade said on television LCP French National Assembly.
Known as the British queen’s banker, Coutts was criticised for “significant, widespread and unacceptable” failures, as described by Tracey McDermott, acting director of enforcement and financial crime.
“The size of the financial penalty demonstrates how seriously we view its failures,” McDermott said.

The Queen of England dealing drugs??? Wonders will never end. What do they need all that money for? Everything she sets her eyes upon and desires is paid for by the British taxpayers.
This is so very sick! Lock that evil bitch away I say, and chuck the keys.
This is incredibly insane. Why deal drugs? They haven't even bothered to refute these accusations or have they? Any news on this anyone?
Since Lady Di, nothing about that family surprises me. I believe for sure, nothing is beneath them... and its a long history riding back.
The House of Windsor must be cursed!
Yup, must be... and Helen, prone to self-destruct in a way all the Queen's men and horses can't put together again.
