This was to do with exporting toxic waste via Amsterdam to the Ivory Coast. The UK government refused to become involved despite being urged to prosecute Trafigura by Amnesty International. The Brit government's argument not to become involved was risible. Well done Tony Blair, another notch in your safety deposit box, I suppose?

Meanwhile rigging the price by fixing the Brent crude spot seems to be an everyday thing in the Anglo-Dutch world...
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
