Further to my previous post about Gordo losing the rag....IT'S OK!. EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT NOW because the former bosses of HBOS and RBS have said "sorry"!!
I'm organising a street party to celebrate the end of the Credit Crunch and everyones invited!
The ruling class - MPs, Sirs and Lords - took part in a three hour ritual of contriteness earlier today to demonstrate just how sorry they were that the game was up.
The four banking fuckwits told the MP fuckwits chairing todays Treasury Committee that they were very sorry they had had to accept millions of pounds for fucking up the economy and that, given the chance, they would do it all again - accept the money that is.
Sir Fred Goodwin, former chief exec of RBS, got by on a pittance of £4.2m in 2007.
Sir Tom McKillop, also RBS, wondered where his next meal was coming from on a platry £750k.
Just plain old Andy Hornby had to make do with £2m from HBOS while Lord Stevenson survived on £820k.
There was much talk of unforeseen global events and being unable to predict what would happen but then you have to wonder why they were paid so much to be in that position. Surely it was their job to understand the risks of what was going on? Similarly they appeared reluctant to accept responsibility for the mess they have left their banks in but again, that was what they were paid for - the responsibility.
It just underlines the supreme smugness of bosses the world over that they are happy to take the money while avoiding all the detritus that their methods leave the rest of us.
