Petition · past parliament

We 'The People of the UK' demand that the BoE publishes its shareholders!

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

The Bank of England doesn't serve the people and it has not been nationalised. That is a fraudulent claim. We demand that the BoE publishes the shareholders for public scrutiny. We will no longer be enslaved by this private banking institution.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

HM Treasury (the Government) is the shareholder of the Bank of England.
