HSBC Scandal Takes Center Stage at Prime Minister's Questions

Labour Party leader Ed Miliband described David Cameron as a “dodgy prime minister” at a heated Prime Minister’s Questions on Wednesday, February 11. The allegation came as the BBC and the Guardian reported that Conservative Party MPs, peers, and donors were among those who held accounts with HSBC in Switzerland. Some Labour Party donors also held accounts with the bank, according to reports.
