Butler to the World

In "Butler to the World," Oliver Bullough delivers a compelling exploration of how Britain positioned itself as the epicenter of the global offshore economy, catering to the world's wealthiest and most unscrupulous individuals. This audiobook, narrated by the author, reveals the historical context surrounding Britain's loss of empire during the Suez Crisis and how it pivoted to become a haven for financial misconduct. With sharp commentary and clever references, Bullough examines the implications of Britain's role in enabling corruption and the challenges this poses to its standing as a trustworthy ally in global politics.
