Stephen Clements, 51, the former head of the business continuity at Lloyds Banking Group, has filed a legal suit against the company over claims there was a deliberate cover-up of mistakes to avoid the cost of repairing the problem and the damage to the bank's reputation.

Clements quit his £130,000-a-year job as head of business continuity at the bank in July.
