Bailing out a bank that was buttfucked by in the words of Gordun McBroon "My very good friend" Sir Fred was necessary to stop a financial meltdown that could have been avoided had McBroon and his boss, CIA London Station Chief Anthony Wankington Blair had been doing their job properly. Nu Labor were quite happy to brown nose the rich instead of representing their party members. It happened on their watch and will take about another couple of decades to clear up.

Totally agree that nu labour let banking run riot but the Tories while opposing them were complaining there was too much regulation.

Yes, the Labour government cocked up in not monitoring and regulating the banking sector. They have said the same themselves.
Ah well Argie, given the Tory party is now owned by the finance sector, I would have thought that there is even less chance now of the Tories controlling the finance sector than there would have been if they had been in power instead of Labour.
After all if the Tories are going to bung the finance sector ?2bn as they did over the recent Royal Mail sale, I would suggest that public sector workers like yourself should start to get very scared! I would imagine Osborne is planning to give the finance sector a few more billion with the Lloyds share sale.
Didn't Osborne visit Dublin in 2006 to praise the successes of the "Celtic tiger" and to find out how to run a vibrant, modern economy?
THe answer is yes. by the way. !wink!

More madness from Osbourne. Anyone could have told him how the "Celtic Tiger" was successful - oodles of euros from the EU to get the Irish to vote the "correct" way in the EU Constitution/Lisbon Treaty and when they eventually did the EU pulled the plug and the Irish economy went back down the toilet...
