I'm not surprised to see these big US banks pouring billions into their UK expansion plans after Chancellor Reeves delivered a budget that basically gave them a free pass on increased taxes. It's like they're sending a clear message: the UK is still open for business, no matter what. The fact that they're committing so much money into new projects just hours after the budget suggests that it's not really about the tax situation, but more about their long-term plans for growth. And let's be real, £10 billion is a pretty big vote of confidence in the UK economy... or is it? I mean, we all know that banks have been criticized for prioritizing profits over social causes, so what exactly are they hoping to achieve with these investments?
