Barclays urged to fire boss Jes Staley over his links to Jeffery Epstein

The biggest shareholder in Barclays has urged the bank to fire boss Jes Staley over his links to Jeffrey Epstein. Ed Bramson, who owns 5.8 per cent of Barclays through his hedge fund Sherborne Investors, said the renomination of Staley to the bank’s board was extremely ill-advised. Staley was being probed by the regulator over whether he had been open with his employer about his link to Epstein.
