This is why we left the EU.

Explain, please. Do you mean to say that “we” left the EU because “The EU” might hamper the money launderers etc? People in cahoots with shady financiers promoted Brexit so they could keep getting their cut of shady money?

This exactly. Brexit was a direct response to the EU planning to introduce legislation that would have exposed all the dirty money that goes through London. Brexit was essentially orchestrated by a tiny group of financiers and billionaires who are all up to their eyeballs in the dirtiest money they can get their gammon fingers into.
