The plans of the British Prime Minister to disclose information about business on the islands did not like their leaders. It is about the Virgin Islands and other overseas territories of the British. The situation is heating up, reports The Times. The attempt to press Russia turned into a scandal inside the country. It is a question of the bill, whose authors propose to make information about the accounts of businessmen in off-shores available to the public. The authorities of the islands called the government of Theresa May treacherous. Thus, the Prime Minister of the Virgin Islands said about the undermining of confidence and questioned the further relations with Britain. Also, Orlando Smith stressed that London is trampling on the "constitutional rights of the islanders".

The current situation resembles the era of colonialism, the Minister of Finance of the Virgin Islands. It should be noted that the lion's share of the island's revenues depends on the provision of financial services. It is not surprising that the attacks of Theresa May were accepted with hostility. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister of the Cayman Islands was not so categorical. Alden McLachlin said that he intends to challenge London's decision in court. To break with the United Kingdom, he does not appear to be ready.
