Bob Diamond at the Treasury Select Committee

Barclays boss Bob Diamond answered questions on the Independent Commission on Banking final report

Barclays chief executive Bob Diamond gave evidence to the UK’s House of Commons Treasury Select Committee on the Independent Commission on Banking final report. Financial News live-blogged the session.

17.20: Diamond is asked about former Labour business secretary Peter Mandelson's 2010 comments that he was the "unacceptable face of banking". He says: "I think that was rather a political statement at the time, he and I have since met and he has come in and spent many hours to learn about what we do in our corporate and investment bank for our clients."
