I think I'm going to stick to NS&I and the safer bank accounts.

I like the following banks & building societies

Nationwide
Co-op

Any other "nice" safe banks out there? Which ones are safest from subprime and don't offshore everything to India?

A lot of the others are on the verge of collapse (Northern Crock style) (e.g. the Icelandic banks)

How about Coutts? I think their monthly statements are hand-written with a real quill pen, and delivered to your door on a silver plate by a guy in full livery and a powdered wig.

P.S. You might find their charges are a bit steep.

Give it to the New Lie, get made a Lord. Hopefully you have a bit of technical nouse which appears quite lacking in government, so you'll get to sit on lots and lots of comittees: just think all them expenses. Sorted.

You don't even have to give it to them - in order to get around the new rules they brought in on big donations, they accept loans - sorted.
