Beware the pentecostals

Have you noticed the Abbey National's new logo? Here it is in Ipswich town centre.

But wait. Haven't I seen that somewhere before? Yup, the rising flame motif is the factor that links the Abbey, Ashburnham Place and 30 St Mary Axe.

My inner conspiracy theorist would like to believe it's evidence that pentecostals are slowly taking over the world. The truth appears to be more pedestrian: it's the logo of the Abbey National's parent company, The Santander Group.
