What does the Chancellor of the Exchequer doo?
he's the guy in control of the countries budgets. he is the one that says that social security gets X amount this year, military gets Y amounts this year and healthcare gets Z.... oh and the guy that ensures he receives A, B and C amounts.
in short he is the accountant/book keeper of the government funding (tax)
So keeping that in mind sooner or later he's gonna be the man that will try to regulate bitcoins and face criticism from the community...!
