This blog is in response to the campaign to stop RBS from getting their sticky paws on to our money. 2008 saw the start of the massive banking crisis which shook the whole banking system to a few hours from total Armageddon. With the biggest run on a UK bank in living memory, the senses at Northern Rock could not be repeated. And it did not.
Without the efforts of Gordon Brown and his government the whole world would now be in a deep depression. It has been largely abated. It was close, but it looks like even the UK is now is coming out of recession.
And now barely 18 months after the shit literally hit the fans, the bankers are looking to eat the cake. We as taxpayers have poured 100's of billions in to the banks, and now it seem that they want to have some cake. Well let me tell you this. I will not stand for this, and neither should you.
The joke is on us. We control the banks. When the government stepped in to save RBS from collapse, it ensured that we had a veto. In the Times article back in December it looked like the Treasury was going to use its balls to stop these bankers, but now things are uncertain. Hence the campaign started to stop them.
Lets see in the coming weeks what happens
