A person of this sort advocated a new social policy in the three-part newspaper essay “Left Turn” and ran for parliament while jailed, which he described in the book My Fellow Prisoners. These people were forced to accept “new rules of the game” by a leader whose PhD thesis proposed “national champions” as an alternative to them. One of these people sued another of them after saying he coerced him into selling Sibneft shares. These people, who included a group called the “Seven Bankers,” (10[1])first fully emerged after buying (10[1])into the “loans-for-shares” scheme (10[1]-5[1])formed by Anatoly (10[2])Chubais (10[2])(“choo-BICE”). In (10[1])2022, one of these people (10[1])sold a sports club (10[1])to a (10[1])consortium (10[4])led by (10[2])Todd Boehly (10[2]-5[1])(“bo-AY-lee”) when the Premier League disqualified him as a director of Chelsea.
