FORMER chancellor Sajid Javid has followed the well-worn path of  his predecessors into banking by accepting a paid job with JP Morgan, it emerged today.

But concerns have been raised over “obvious” conflicts of interest as he will remain an MP.

Mr Javid, who had worked for the bank in the 1990s before going into politics, has been appointed senior adviser on the US bank’s advisory council for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
