Jim Slip`s greedy bankers

I notice my colleague, Mr Slip, often rants about greedy bankers....and
right he is too !
Drawing a veil over the recent arrest of Mr Strauss-Kahn, the International
Monetary Fund chief on charges of attempted rape in New York (he may
be innocent), I was more interested to see that his suite at the Sofitel
cost ?1,850 (yes, thats pounds not dollars) a night !! And, of course, he
was arrested in First Class on a flight bound for Paris.
Not for this banker Club class (I will allow him that, maybe he wants to
work peacefully on the plane) but the ?3000+ of First. Ok, ok, he is a hard
working banker ! But a ?1,850 a night suite !!!
And this, trust me, is how bankers the world over expect to spend what,
in effect, we give them !!

Can you imagine a situation over here, where having received a complaint from a mere chambermaid that she was assaulted by a billionaire banker, that banker would be removed from an aircraft and taken for questioning by the police?
Furthermore, can you imagine that in spite of the best efforts of his slimy lawyers to get him bail, the judge refused the sum of $1,000,000 being posted, because she felt he would, "Take flight?"
He would have got off scott free over here.

Bit previous Jimbo. Strauss Kahn's case hasn't been heard yet. And as for powerful men getting away scott free over here, err, Jeffrey Archer, Jonathan Aitken, a variety of MPs now residing at HM's pleasure as a result of the expenses scandal?

"The last government thought they could have a good time and to hell with the consequences... !!! "
Supported completely and utterly by the Conservative party who matched the government's spending plans pound for pound.
Wasn't it George Osborne in 2006 on a visit to Dublin announced that he was there to learn the secrets of the Celtic tiger and how to build and sustain a growth economy?

David, what on Earth has the above astute analogy got to do with George Osbourne or the Tories? THEY WERE NOT IN POWER AT THE TIME! It wouldnt matter if George Osbourne had given Brown a blowjob in full view of PMQ's! READ MY LIPS, ONLY NEW LABOUR ARE TO BLAME FOR THE NEAR BANKRUPTCY OF THIS COUNTRY NO ONE ELSE!!!! If it weren't for me and a few others on here who hold the torch of Free Speech, by now you'd have airbrushed from history, every fuck up made by New Labour and managed to blame it somehow on the Tories!!deadhorse!
