What Was Rachel’s Bonus?
Labour rent-a-fog-horn Rachel Reeves has been in the headlines again today calling for “those with the broadest shoulders and those with responsibility for creating the crisis” to be made to pay. What about those that have subsequently left the financial sector?
Reeves worked for HBOS from 2006 to 2009. If she’s going to continue proposing historical punishments for failure, should she not declare any bonus payments she received in that time and whether she waived them? How much was her bonus?
Did she even deserve one for “exceptional work”? After all HBOS ended up partially state-owned when Lloyds Banking Group was bailed out…
Her bouns was a safe labour seat.
Do as I say, not do as I do !
You English are really so fucking stupid.
If you elect 650 twats to Parliament you get the Government you deserve.
2.5 million of you have no jobs and you do not know how many others are on short time hours with another 500000hidden away as disabled yet you spend your time talking about a fucking Arab who hates you not being sent to Jordan to face a trial pending against him there.
All you have to do is keep him in jail and let the trial proceed in Jordan by video link. If he is found guilty with no untoward evidence send him to Jordan. If he is found not guilty just kick him out the country.
You should really look at yourselves at times.
You really are next to useless.
Tut tut Jane. Not all of us. Plenty in these Isles would be more than happy to put the lying polticians against the wall and shoot them, as for this cretinous Islamic preacher. No problem. Fly over Jordan and throw him out, no need as I see it to land.
Gordon and Ed Balls bear most responsibility for the crisis
Gordon saved us all, you fool – and Ed saved us all as well
Jane just because we have a few COWARD Scum bag politicians, being terrorised by some Jordanian Cleric, DONT FORGET WE, THE ENGLISH BULLDOG have the Spirit of Lions. Dont mistake the Sh-t that represent us in parliament to be of our spirit.
fook off
You are one of 400,000,000 slaves in the EUSSR. France is in deep shit over Euro debt and on the edge of major civil unrest because your youth unemployment figures are even worse than ours. London is the 8th biggest French city by population, because any Frog with an ounce of initiative is making a life in England, and you call us next to useless?
Sometimes Jane it needs an outsiders view. We are obviously too close to the problem.
Home Secretary May was convinced in Parliament today that the mahomedan preacher would be sent to Jordan within three months, She refused to countenance any othe option so if she doesn’t follow your advice or manage to dispose of this turd in time we could be seeing him on the streets of Blighty in three months time. Walking free to preach his filthy mahomedan bile and hoodwinking loads of muslim born Brits into more acts of terror.
if we can’t get shot of him we should just make him a British citizen.
Then he’d be free to live in France.
If we sent him to Jordan, what could the ECHR do about it?
Why are the Political Class so terrified of this OLD MAN.
Is it that he may spill the beans on the real movers and shakers of the global terrorist networks. Shipping him down to Jordan for a quick execution should tidy up any unanswered questions.
Remember Jane:
you are english.
France does have higher unemployment.
France has a far higher Arab population.
Your backing group will leave if you’re on like that.
Your one to talk you daft bat, last time I was in France it was overrun with muslims.
+100
Paris is now a good place to avoid, as is Brussels for identical reasons.
Ah Janey Babe but we do have zeeeeeeee AAA, etes vous?
lets get one think straight, I am fucking WELSH not english, better to send him to france, lets face it you are the nearest thing to being an arab on the European mainland
Too old for me.
Not another hypocritical liebour gob shite………..
You don’t understand Tone. Pre 2010 GE bonuses good and deserved; post 2010 GE bonuses despicable.
Ah got it, many thanks……..
I think she got it for the lips – look at the size and power and suction in them!
Proper Labour Labia
Same as Railtrack. Pre June 2010 Bonuses all right and proper. Post June 2010 despicable.
Same as knighthoods. Pre June 2010 all well and good and nothing to be done. Post June 2010 – Goodwin must be de-frocked.
It’s astonishing how all things set up by the Imbecility were great and good and yet now they are all the governments fault and despicable and ‘unfair’.
The clue is in the Maximum Imbecile. All of his acts were imbecilic (if there is such a word) and have to be undone.
Can Knighthoods given out by Labour be withdrawn? I thought they were fully paid for.
Rewarding success? Labour?
“[Reeves] stood as the Labour Party candidate in the Conservative safe seat Bromley and Chislehurst in the 2005 general election where she finished second. She again contested the seat in the 2006 by-election following the death of sitting MP Eric Forth and finished fourth. Reeves’ support reduced from 10,241 votes to 1,925 in what was described as a “humiliation” for Labour.”
Show me a socialist and I’ll show you a hypocrite.
I am at a loss as to why the Labour Party is not generally called the Party of Hypocrites and Liars. We should learn from the Russians (on this issue only) as Putin hates his unofficial party name. Labour take themselves so seriously that it would send them ballistic.
Rachel Reeves – doing for Labour support what she did for banking.
Looked on a website at the 15 most attractive politicians.
UK nil.
USA 5+
Canada 2 and counting.
The most attractive were from South America.
What about louise Mensch? I think she’s gorgeous.
Esther McVey?
Frock Dromey
Rent-a-foghorn. I was wondering what it was about this dragon that so irritated me. I am used to Labourettes looking like they suck lemons all day (watch yesterday’s parliament session for vinegar looks) or were smashed in the face at birth.
She really needs help with her hair and she only seems to have one outfit (red), but now I know–it’s that effing VOICE!
Does those responsible for causing this crisis include Brown , Mandleson, Balls, Miliband etc
To quote, “…and those with responsibility for creating the crisis”.
That’s a yes then.
Wonga APR 4214%
Wonga customers – the poor,the desperate and the stupid.
Should you be taking their money?
I’m sure the mafia would love to move back into the lending game once debt prohibition is enacted.
“MERKEL SAYS ‘WE NEED GREAT BRITAIN IN THE EUROPEAN UNION’ – BLOOMBERG”
AC1 Says “FUCK OFF MERKEL”.
WIR HABEN IHRE GELD SEHR GERN!
Yes, probably lost in translation but what she actually said was that Great Britain’s cash contributions were needed.
So she wallowed through the grad scheme at a 3rd rate retail bank and checked out PDQ for the People’s Party …. Sounds like the best bonio she might have seen was £20k with an extra few bob for all her diversity outreach doodah.
Ms Reeve was unlikely to trouble the scorers overmuch.
The only way she’d have got bonus is if she fished em out for her boss & offered him a blowie
Dunno. She looks a LOT like David Cameron in drag to me. Same ‘plasticine face’ thing going on.
I wish I had that much hair…
Oh but darling – you can! I can do anything you want!
Bank tellers are shockingly badly paid. Perhaps she will tell us how badly? Basically why the cow in the local Nat West always gives me the evil eye when I present my utility bills. That they have a financial arrangement to mutual benefit with the Alien Gray Ones is beyond her.
I suggest that Fog Horn looks a bit closer to home. No amount of air brushing will change the fact IT WAS YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>those with responsibility for creating the crisis
Brown, G.
Balls, E.
Miliband, E.
Need I go on?
and those with responsibility for creating the crisis . .
Agreed Sir Aston
No,

Hi Hilary – Labor short memory again I see. It was Clinton your hero who gave Freddy and Fanny their legal right to give mortages to people who could not afford them.
Gormless bint
As verified by her appearance on The Politics Show today.
Vaccuous, shouty, and not pleasing on the eye.
Classic labour knocking down aunt sally
“new schools and hospitals were not the cause of the global financial crisis – it was those greedy (tory voting) bankers”
it sounds ridiculous but the tories find it a difficult line to counter!
in fact they jump on this band wagon and hammer “business” just like the socialists.
And BTW those new schools and hospitals were a big cause of Britain’s problem, that and continuing to stoke the booming banking sector to suck in those massive tax revenues from all those bankers bonuses!
Enver Hodge was shocked to discover that PFI was bad news for the taxpayer.
Was she asleep when all this money for schools and hospitals was pissed up against a wall from 1997 – 2010?
It’s only 150 billion or so – why would Ms Oppenheimer (millionairess) care?
Besides, all that money is “investment”! It’s the same sort of gig that sank Woolworths, writ large but with the guarantee of our future taxes.
Hodge will, no doubt, claim that it’s the last two years that have caused the problem – but why haven’t the Coalition revisited some of these contracts?
Is for de ospital dat we anker
But der is no friendly banker
So Mistah Blair who ain’t no wanker
Find a solution
Which is a revolution
PFI instead of MFI
Is bleedin dis country dry

Everything, but everything that Labour have done in office has been
muddleheaded and catastrophic for the British people.
I used to think that the “dog shit” law was ok. But I was wrong.
It’s fucking gross. And by the way if someone doesn’t get Prescott
off the box shortly I’m going to set myself on fire.
What’s the ignorant oaf whining about this time – another pie shortage?
He’s not a “victim” – all the rest of us were. Suffered nothing, but spilled his beans in the temple and scoffed at the UK’s expense.
They are fucking socialists. Haven’t you got it yet? Just listen for the phrase ‘progressive policy’….it’s a clue.
Ith thhe a pwadatow ow a pwodther?
Funny how the tax arrangements and bonuses at t’Guardian aren’t examined too closely by Deadwood Milband.
Nor his wife’s salary and bonus.
Would not “those with responsibility for creating the crisis” include Gordon Brown, Ed. Balls and Ed Miliband ? Come on chaps get the old cheque books out.
Those with responsibility should pay for creating the crisis should pay? Some chance of everybody responsible paying.
FFS!!!Has the bonus culture only blossomed in the past 20 months? So it wasn’t positively encouraged by her mates.
There’s no finer brand of hypocrisy than Liebour hypocrisy….
What crime has this bloke Abu Qatarda been convicted of in this country?
On the other hand, he could be left at Longwood House on St Helena.
Abu Qatada was in possession of … £805 in an envelope labelled “For the Mujahedin in Chechnya”
is that a good thing or a bad thing these days?
so he was convicted of fundraising for terrorisim (freedom fighting depending on your point of view) ?
He’s not been done for anything of course.
If I had £800 in an envelope it might well be labelled “for the occupier”. But that wouldnt mean I was a Z ionist.
so he hasnt been convicted of any crime in a UK court then?
he entered the UK illegally on a forged passport
normally when you do that you don’t get given a nice a council house, a good education for the nippers, plenty of bennies, legal aid a volonte etc
Who to blame? Anyone who blames the EU or the ECHR and who then does nothing about it.
He entered Britain with his wife and five kids on forged passport.he lives in Wembly in council house on benefits.He was found to have £170,000 in bank account which he claims was donations for Islamic relief.
What reason for Abu Qatarda to be allowed into this country?
None. He can stay in immigration, or go somewhere else.
He admitted that he’d never heard of Twizzle.
He’s a terrorist or terrorist-enabler and a self-avowed enemy of the state of the UK whose purpose and ambition is the violent mass murder of its citizens. In the light of that he should be engaged by armed security in a manner appropriate for the enemy he is: indefinite detention without trial or, preferably, his threat nullified via h/v projectile.
Curious how the post lib-left think every Western soldier who, on coming under enemy attack in whichever theatre, should constrain themselves from shooting back, and offer instead a choice of HR lawyers, and their day in court.
I’d quote from a recent post on another blog on the subject of extraordinary rendition:
>>’ People have to stop confusing terrorism with crime and terrorists with criminals.
In a war we don’t put enemy armies on trial because the results would be losing the war
Similarly we should not put terrorists on trial because the results would be that we would fail to prevent mass slaughter. ‘
this would be there first ever example of Labour hypocrisy
Her screech could curdle custard.
I agree. What is it about Labour that they feel compelled to fill their front bench with people that can’t speak normally. This woman doesn’t sound like any other person from Bromley. She could certainly use some elocution. Then there’s Balls and Cooper, neither of whom can say their R’s properly talking wubbish (can’t imagine how their children sound). Wee Dougie and that poofy Scottish whinging. Ed – well, enough said. Harriet. My God no one I know talks like that. What about Twigg?
Don’t you think he looks old?
The British ambassador to the UN was on the telly a day or two ago saying that the Wussians weally have behaved iwwisponsibly by wetoing this wesolution on Sywia
Of course Lloyds Bank was talking into buying the “toxic” Halifax Bank of Scotland by the MP for Kirkaldy and Cowdenbeath.
Do they have one?
That’s me!
It had to be done. By coercing LLoyds, via his ‘friendship’ with the Chairman, to take on HBoS the Maximum Imbecile was able to claim that the majority of the UK’s major banks were in trouble. Well, hardly surprising after you’d deliberately poisoned one of them by arranging a ‘merger’ was it?
It also avoided the uncomfortable truth emerging that all the UK banks having problems app*eared to be in Labour-voting areas. Northern Rock. Halifax. Bank of Scotland. RBS. There was, shall we say, an emergent theme. But by poisoning LLoyds and bringing them into the frame the Maximum Imbecile was able to claim it was a much wider ‘crisis’ than it actually was.
Make no mistake. The banks were wilfully driven into near-ban*kr*up*t*cy as a deliberate political ploy to distract from Labour’s monumental economic mismanagement.
The real kicker for us in England is that if HBoS and RBS had been bailed out as stand-alone entities then when Salmond fucks off with Fucking Scotland we could have either pulled the plug on BoS and RBS and demanded reparations – or the Scottish economy sinks on Day One. Now we are condemned to least support LLoyds-HBoS since so much of their business is south of the border.
How did Brown fuck us? Let me count the ways.
APPLAUSE !!!!!

It wasnt just Brown as the inglishman Mandleson waived the regulations which normally would have prevented such a “monopolistic” merger taking place. Please dont allow your tiresome racism from recognising the role inglsh politicians played in this. Remember the last Labour Goverment was 73% inglsh.
You really are too sensitive about any mention of The Maximum Imbecile. Notice I made no reference to him being Scottish. Likewise I mentioned Northern Rock and Halifax as areas inhabited by Labourists. But all you hear is ‘BoS and RBS’ so it must be an anti-Scottish thing.
I do refer Fucking Scotland but if you’d spent six years on a hardship posting in Fucking Fife you’d feel the same way.
I only spent 2 years in Fife. fucking ScotlandF
I came. I saw. I fucked off.
Brown had run the economy for 10 years and the country for 3. The merger was Brown’s Big Idea, and his control of Labour was so complete that no Labour politician would oppose him – especially the Flawed One. Brown bears the responsibility. His nationality is not a factor unless you want it to be.
He’s a Little Scotlander. Rushing to take faux offence at every opportunity. Just like Labour rushing to brand folk ‘bigots’ or ‘racists’ or ‘Tories’ or, well, anything at all really rather than answer the fucking question. Like when the beetroot-faced slob, Salmond, was swooning all over the place about a ‘Downfall’ parody. How he objected to being compared to the Nazis.
Every fuck-up in recent history has had a ‘Downfall’ parody but he has to take offence because it has to be targetting him personally as a Nazi. Oh really? Labour losing a seat in a by-election in Fucking Glasgow to the S&P had Brown in a ‘Downfall’ parody. A football team loses a match and their manager gets a ‘Downfall’ parody. But somebody dares to take the p155 out of Salmond and he’s clutching his pearls giving it ‘Ooooh, I’ve never been so offended…ooh.. comparing me to a Nazi…ooooh…’.
What a pompous purple-faced prick he is eh?

Mangledbum’s not English – he’s a Red Sea Pedestrian, and the product of poisonous Fabian genes. He’ll do anything to enrich himself, especially if it fucks the English up.
Your certainly not inglish your welsh,though you certainly like sucking inglish cock
See how quickly the Little Scotlander reverts to type. You should be hating the English too Paragnostic. Like a proper Little Scotlander.
No swooning with faux outrage now. The mask has slipped.
Red Sea Pedestrians …
Brilliant, never heard that one before.
@Terrytory – you really should watch “Life of Brian”.
Ah, and it’s Para unable to contain his casual antisemitism again. He may be a fascist, but he’s our fascist.

Labour rent-a-fog-horn Rachel Reeves has been in the headlines again today calling for “those with the broadest shoulders and those with responsibility for creating the crisis” to be made to pay. What about those that have subsequently left the financial sector?
Yeah Greasy Head what about your dumbo colleagues in the Liebour Opposition Cabinet who caused it…CooperBalls,NoBrainLeftByrne,retardED…etc..you should all have retired in shame, penniless!!!
++++Laugh++++
‘retire in shame penniless’ ?!!
We’re talking about labour here. There’s hardly one of them that’s less than a £millionaire already. The only one I can think of is denis skinner and even he’s worth a few bob.
You have to remember they are in this for what they can get out of it!
Agreed.
Skinner? Isn’t it about time someone investigated THAT miserable, hypocritical waste of space? Come to think of it, he’s truer to Liabore than his brother in arms “Don’t Call Me Lord Stansgate or Mention That I Inherited PIles Of Wonga from My Late American Wife” Wedgie Hot Air Benn.
Interesting years to be a labouriteManager in HBOS.
Excessive risk taking, short selling, secret meetings between gordy, Lloyds and HBOS. Deals done behind closed doors and shareholders fleeced .
Was she his inside man I wonder and is that why she got a labour safe seat? Perhaps that was part of her bonus.
“…was she his inside MAN…? Is there something she is not telling us?
I change the channel every time I hear the inarticualte cretin open her cavernous gob.
Another PPE graduate.
She read politics, philosophy and economics at New College, Oxford, followed by an MSc in Economics from the London School of Economics.
Wiki entry also mentions she upset the Guardian over her use of unpaid interns.
Very keen on whelks and jellied eels apparently.
Any room for a toy-boy?
Just asking like.
Waste of pixels, mate. Proust whizzes over everyone’s head hereabouts.
MSc in Economics from the LSE?
Doesn’t say much for the quality of teaching of economics at the LSE then does it?! Sounds about on the par with saidgaddafi’s LSE ‘qualification’ in democracy.
I’ll make sure if YoungNell makes Uni she avoids that institution!!
Nell you have a fine Academic institution at the bottom of your turnip patch, namely The University Of East Angular
The ‘cutting edge’ architecture of its library is every bit as leaky and unpleasant as rumours suggest. Raise your sights: Fenland Poly (so long as Little Nell is inured to East Anglian winters). Best of luck to you both!
She could study climate change!
When will a journalist ask her this
“would you prefer that
a) the banks paid bankers bonuses of for example £9billion and the state raked in approximately 60% tax and the bankers then went and spent what was left in the general economy on clothes,cars, houses, staff etc.
B) the banks do not pay bonuses and siphon the funds to offshore jurisdictns in order to minimise their tax bill in the uk thus depriving the exchequer the income tax and corporate tax?
Come on Rachel, simple question…..
OR … When will a journalist ask her this:
“Why don’t you just fuck right off?”
Guffaw
Has Ed been out of his coffin yet today?
Busy practising his six questions in the mirror, interspersed with witty retorts and catchphrases;
Out of touch
He just doethn’t get it
Cabinet of Millionaireth
Calm Down (his current favourite)
How ith the NHTH top down reformth going (bound to be a winner)
Don’t forget “complathenthy mithter sthpeaker”
Good point Guido.
She has an awful voice, it is like listening to Roland Rat suffering from depression.
Watch her defend sponging pilgrims:
Not exactly the most articulate of people is she?
”…..pay and all that”
To be fair it cant be easy defending the indefensible on live TV
I don’t think she actually understood very much of what was being said to her at all.
She’s only 33, so all this bullsh*t about there being less strikes over the last 13 years doesn’t really carry weight. She wasn’t around in the early 70′s so she didn’t see the piles of rubbish, disgruntled commuters and electricity on a 3-day week.
That’s Labour for you.
Not to mention the unburied dead piling up in council-run morgues. Thank yew, Sunny Jim Callaghan (RIP, but not in a plastic bag AFAIK).
She sounds more suited to one of those Freeview shopping channels for thick fat women
Where they just handing Oxford degrees when she attended or is a lot less fick than she sounds?
It’s probably an affectation. If you’re representing a Labour ward it doesn’t do to sound like some plummy girl from the pony club.
I prefer Nicola Blackwood
What bollocks. Union employees are not there to ‘help’ employers. They are there to undermine them, second-guess them and generally fuck things up.
If union reps were ‘helping’ employers we’d still have a ship-building industry, a car-building industry, a steel industry, a coal industry. The c*unts are parasites. Worse than that they’re fucking stupid parasites because they kill the host.
I can’t imagine that the unlovely, gormless Reeves would have earned a bonus, but anything’s possible I suppose – I’ve seen it all!
Thats why shes so jealous of those who have
Watch her cover Ed Miliband’s relaunch… with images of the Concordia sinking below the water at the same time
Very appropriate imagery after what gordy and labour did to our economy.
Even better when she talks about why Labour were kicked out of power the camera zooms into the shipwreck !
Piss funny .. deliberate, surely?
Funny, thought that image in the background was another Mediterranean, laid horizontal in the wet with a wrecked bottom after a night’s cruising…George Michael!
C’mon darlin’ tell us about your bonuses. It is the honourable thing to do or is she just another Dishonourable Delgirl?
One could be excused for thinking she was some sort of vampire.
Excellent observation. Mind you, the old garlic wouldn’t work – all that lipstick and face-cake would neutralise the smell. And that’s before she’s opened her mouth.
Revolting slapper. I’ve seen better in Asda car park and heard better in Billingsgate.
Other car parks are available.
Ok Rachel when does Gordon start paying?
Wonder if he’s been out tobagganing and making snowmen and snow angels with his boys? Come to that I wonder if sarah has. She seems to spend her days these days fencing and riding horses. Odd occupations for the wife of a failed leftwing leader.
Perhaps she’s going to be the new Zoro.
Poor bloody horse!
Auditioning for a tampon ad? If she’s caught rollerskating with a dalmatian, I’ve clinched it.
Fencing is her releasing her psychological need to act like her “inner man”, obviously she wears the dungarees when she visits Canterbury.
Reeves is another labourite playing at socialism.
HBOS = LIAR LOANS!
Hi Eric! Fancy seeing you here…
Chuka Umunna is currently spewing out drivel on BBC Parliament. Denial and spite are the only labour policies.
The moderator is a twat arsewipe.
Contradiction in terms boy
Silly boy! the word is ‘dr*vel’ GEDDIT?
I’m watching Parliament at the moment and that Rachel creature is sitting next to Chucka the Fucka, nodding like a demented scare-crow. Chuka is being his usual lucid self – talking the biggest load of bollocks I’ve
heard for a while. Oh, and he’s PRAISED the one eyed imbecile! You couldn’t make it up.
I BEG your pardon!!!!!!!
I am really Progressive and with it and hip and RightOn as Tone would say, and I simply LOVE Gordo, – he brought us to where we are today!
Bonus? I doubt her performance at work was sufficient to warrant one.
imagine her wispering sweet nothings in your ear…….i feel i’m going to be sick
Her foghorn voice would make a great alarm clock!
Bonus, Bonus… she whispered.
And so he did.
There have been a few soundbites recently which have not been helpful to Mr Lansley namely comming from around the shadow cabinet but as ever shots from the fog .
I have not found any left commentator , who has declared , his cutting of mangement and increasing of staff , as anything other than the right direction to secure its function and budget , in what looks being a difficult medium term ecnomic climate . He is delivering some of the savings he has spoken about.
The NHS may well be recognised as an effective and efficent delivery sytem of health care , but that does not omitt it from being wastefull or in need of a bit of a tune up . Everyone accepts it has to reform , not only for ecnomic reasons but for new treatment regimies .
most of the beef has been centered round primary care trusts , will no labour politician acknowledge that it was some of these trusts that ran into debts on there watch,where was Burnhams great answer to the waste problem when in office whilst these debts were run up , please sir can i have some more differed taxation to cover my incompetence…?
wheres the evidence on the cherry picking accusation …. not really any is there ….
By all means give Alan milburn somthing to do with his talents , but shouldnt he be helping Mr Burnhams dire embarrasment first ! who like his shadow cahncellor is uanble to say that where he would cut the NHS , rather than reform on slightly increased /protected budget .
come come briefing against Lansley when labour have a continual open goal , not really bright sometimes in the origin of briefs
Which effective and efficient delivery system of health care would run up a £15.7 Billion bill for medical malpractice in 2009/10?
> The NHS may well be recognised as an effective and efficent delivery sytem of health care
Only by you buddy.
Only by his word-recognition software more like.
It reads like it’s been in and out of babelfish.
Not that my scralls are perfect but it’s just a monologue.
scralls? You mean scrawls of course. Don’t demean yourself Air Commodore, we usually enjoy your fly-by-your-pants ranting.
let’s see their detailed plans for bank bonus reform.
when Hester took over RBS was trading at 47p per share and FTSE 100 was up 60%. There was talk of Hester being able to pick up share options at 27p per share yet not even a socialist squeak.
The good old Press are now chipping in some even saying Ed is being too anti City.
Telegraph seem to think it would be an excellent idea to sell off all the good bits of RBS and leave the masses with the big losses as has happened without a murmur over Northern Crock.
Ed should show his balls: RBS has to be sold as a job lot warts and all and any taxpayer paid employee should always be on PAYE.
Simple things I know but they are beyond the grasp of Tinkerbell Cameron and Gideon Osborn
Ed should show his Balls ?
Really ?
His own balls have not dropped yet
And the other Balls will kill him
he is in an inextricable situation even for an inhabitant of Primrose Hill (unless he throws in the towl and becomes a hedge fund manager which is his natuiral calling)
Good analysis
He must be the only inhabitant of Primose Hill or Hampstead who is not a hedgie, a fund manager, a bankster or a a bent lawyer…
I beg your pardon
We are all as straight as Mr Berezowski
A spermatozoa fertilised one of my jobbies in America, and little Edwin appeared nine months later.
Now the eye sight has been kindly returned by that nice Mr Huhne I suspect Neo-Guido’s nice line of enquiry made have found its next target.
I worked as an HBOS business delelopment manager until 2009
HBOS then collapsed
Therefore I have a God given right to be anti-capitalist, anti-bnanks and a real member of Empty Ed’s team
I merely follow the completely hollow, hypocrital and opportunist philosohy of my Great Leader
I sent this same messsage about 6 months ago
Does no one pay any attention ?!
It’s rather like the story of “consultant” Liam Byrne
His “firm” getting so many “consulting” contracts under fooking Labour
And now having to wait until another corrupt government splashes billions on them !
There seems to be no limit to the generalised corruption in the UK
HBOS was collapsing when Brown persuaded Lloyds to take it over
HBOS was a stack of cards like RBS
Tell ther Scotch to pay for both of these piles of toxic shit when they (hopefully) take their independence
Lloyds was deliberately sabotaged by Brown to spread the ‘crisis’ to three of the five big UK banks. Otherwise it would have been just two. And that wouldn’t fit with the ‘Most of the UK banks were in crisis but I saved the world’ message. So another bank had to be dragged in.
But luckily Brown had his mate as Chairman of Lloyds. And we know how Brown likes to treat his ‘friends’.
The word is ‘dispensable’.
One minute you’re worthy of a knighthood. The next you’ve ruined his economic paradise and are to be judged in the court of public opinion.
Can we please defrock the ex Chairman of Lloyds ?
We defrocked Fred the Shred
Why not Victor the Blank ?
Or will we be accuced again of anti-semitism ?
I worked as an HBOS business delelopment manager until 2009
Hopefully you can bring the same intellectual flair that allowed you to sit there for years at HBoS taking the money without seeing anything going wrong under your nose through into the Labour party.
Oh. You have.
I took the HBOS money while it was good
The taxpayer has to pay for the collapse of HSOS
But I have no responsibility in all of that
It was the fault of the filthy greedy predators supported by Gordon Brown and Ed Balls, my heroes (and Madoff Mandelson and Moral Collapse Blair, my heroes, are ably continuing the Labour Ponzi Scheme but purely for themselves this time)
Hopefully you can bring to the Labour party what you brought to HBOs.
Labour have shot themselves in the foot, not once but many a time.
Time for Labour to stop treating the public like fools. We can see through the hypocrisy.
Labour is hell bent on continuing with its student politics, anti-banking, anti-capitalist, anti-corporists, anti-this and anti-that and pro union bullshit. It is time for Labour to grow up and joim the real world. They are not even a credible opposition and that is detrimental to democracy.
They figured out long ago that nobody would elect Labour if they were to tell the truth. So they lie.
As ever with the economy, Labour inherited a golden egg and bequeathed a golden turd.
Things can only get better, Tra lah, Tra lah

I am looking for a charity gig to support to regain my virginity
I suggest you organise a charity ball (all on exneses of course) to raise funds to redesign your Slotgob of a wife
She really is a physical horror who needs re jigging…
Do as we say, not as we do.
Labour’s moto should be do as we say & not what we do! Foghorn Reeves is typical of the motormouth jumped-up nobodies that frequent the Shadow Cabinet. Only the BBC take her seriously.
You’re kidding. I read that she’s number two in line to succeed Milliboid.
Mind you, they’re a bit short of candidates.
I she were naked would she be worth a Totty Watch ?
What do you think Guido ?
Miss Reeves gave a reasonable account of herself, this being her debut as Shadow Chief Secretary. She has a maturity beyond her 32 years. A former Bank of England economist, she is at home with the brief. As bread and butter pudding radiates stolidity, so she, calm.
The voice is, unintentionally, marvellously funny – it reminds me of the late Carry On films actor Bernard Bresslaw, having his nasal, sarf-London fogginess allied to a precision with the consonants.
Shadow Chancellor George Osborne looked and sounded almost prime ministerial
Or is there a trace of Harry H Corbett (who played TV’s Harold Steptoe)? I might pay good money to hear Miss Reeves say ‘you dirty, dirty old man’. She’d need to make her hair a little less obsessively neat first, mind you.

Can you tell me how many of Citizen Rupert Murdock’s employees have been arrested so far ?
Hpow many of his rags are involved ?
Just so that you can be fair and balanced on your bog….
PS Or is this all c ensored here as well…even on your bog??!!
Guido has a blog not a bog, you ignorant Froggie
Rags??!! Even our millions of welfare benefits fraudsters don’t wear rags!!
As for arrested – there’s been a fair few labour mp’s arrested and imprisoned of late – murdoch’s lot are still to be tried!
Hercule,
Can you tell us why, when all this was going on and the Met had the details, nothing was done?
Could it be, perhaps, that Labour’s placemen in the Met were told to keep it low profile while the Sun and NOTW were supporting Brown and Blair?
Why is this not being highlighted on the BBC?
Could it be, perhaps, that Labour’s placemen in the Met were told to keep it low profile while the Sun and NOTW were supporting Brown and Blair?
Yes. That is exactly the case.
Please. Stop this immediately.

You wierdo. Any normal person would run a mile.
If only we had know that UK banks were engaged in reckless lending then this so-called banking crisis could never have occurred. We would never have allowed it to happen.
If only…
Look at 2:50 onwards. ‘House pri*ces rocketted… the reason is a mystery…’. They rocketted from 2001 – the day the Maximum Imbecile employed 1,000,000 bedwetters, boxtickers and bastards and set them loose on the housing mar*k*et, their pockets stuffed with printed cash.
A mystery?
Only for plankton.
It was all “post-neoclassical endogenous growth theory”
And look at this with hindsight

4. House affordability dies.
5. ????
6. Whoops.
You meant ‘De-regulate credit’ I think.
Oh No.
Credit was regulated into existence.
What it was “invested” in was de-regulated, but the important thing to understand was the progressive taxation’s NEED for more credit.

Lord Mandelson concluded that bankers were scammers
Lord Mandelson stated that “The rewards (for bankers) need to be linked to risks. The problem is when excessive rewards start driving excessive risk taking.” An enterprise has no choice: it must take a risk in the course of the business operations. This is in a nature of the economy. However it must always be a calculated commercial risk. It can be never an “excessive risk”. Taking”excessive risk” is a legal wrong and, if it caused any damage, it must be pursued under civil law to obtain compensation from”excessive risk takers”. It must also be investigated under criminal law. As Lord Mandelson effectively admitted bankers were rewarded for “excessive risk taking” since he was referring to the current crisis not some hypothetical situation. Hence, according to Lord Mandelson, bankers committed fraud. As explained in the seminal article on this blog, “The largest heist in history” the mechanism of this “excessive risk taking”, i.e. fraud, was turning the global banking system into a giant pyramid scheme.
It is very refreshing and encouraging that a very senior British government official, effectively the Deputy of the Prime Minister, admitted that the financial community committed fraud from which it benefited. He was very clear that “taking excessive risk” was a euphemism for committing fraud. The taxpayers have all the right now to demand that the government will draw the conclusions from the Lord Mandelson’s words: pursue a huge number of financiers on the charges of fraud and confiscate their wealth in order to compensate the taxpayers for the result of this fraud.
Indeed Lord Mandelson
The whole New Labour project was built on one huge Ponzi scheme
And you Blair and Brown should be in Court for f r a u d
That’s because someone called Gordon Brown, regulated a lot more of banks “product” into existence.
Let’s attacke Iran

BBC currently doing a CUBA, they claim they’re economic problems are all down to the American embargo, rather than it’s communist system.
I bet the reporter hd to get the report approved by the dictators goons.
PETA was the next left-wing narrative point. They’ve just totally “jumped the shark”.
Trouble is, somewhere on this fucked up planet of ours, there will be a judge who wants to set the precedent of assigning rights to animals – maybe a philosophical nutjob, maybe a vegan, maybe just a “Free Willy” fan.
Once that happens, it’ll take years to sort the mess out.

If we’re going to punish the guilty then how about all those who served in Labour’s cabinets under Blair & Brown ! ( esp Ed Balls )
When I was in the Cabinet, everyone was intensely relaxed about people getting filthy rich. What’s happened ?
She is a prime example of why minimum standards in speech, thought and actions should be set for all potential MPs.
We are now the greenest government ever !!!!
Green with Envy !!
Read her Wikipedia entry.
“She cites the influence of her father on herself and her sister supporting the Labour Party, recalling how when she was eight years old he pointed out Neil Kinnock on the television and “told us that was who we voted for”. Reeves says both she and her sister had “both known we were Labour since then”
Typical thick “Ivotelabourcosmedaddid” brain dead waste of space. FFS, form your own opinion you stupid cow, don’t just jump on this bandwagon of fucking the country up at all costs just to get back at the Tories.
And, do everything you can to get on TV, your voice and your fuckwit inability to grasp anything conceptual regarding politics can only help ensure Leibor are a spent force.
Stupid woman.
“he pointed out Neil Kinnoch on the television and told us that was who we voted for and i said Daddy do you mean that man who has just fallen on his arse after being tripped up by a wave”
How could anyone who voted for Welsh wind bag kinnokio expect to be taken seriously, he should have been castrated so we wouldn’t have to put up with the ravings of this typically pig ugly labour shrieking bitch, why are they all so bloody rough like Flint, Smith, Harpic, the Eagles, are they getting even with the world because they are Pigs?
Having your Dad point out the World’s Worst Politician to you when you’re 6 seems as sound a reason as any for supporting that politician’s party for the rest of your miserable life. We’re aw’right! We’re aw’right!!………..(…splosh)
Wonder what her dad would think of Kinnock becoming a Lord and him and his entire family troughing in Europe?
Glad my father was a better judge of character.
The ghastly old hypocrite was the first member of his family in a thousand generations to have the opportunity to go troughing in Europe you know.
By the way, those Eagle sisters shouldn’t be allowed on television before the 9 o’ clock watershed. Talk about frightening children.
If we scowl REALLY intensely, people will think that the Tories are very, very bad.

Gordon Brown alone did not create the financial crisis, he was ably assisted by the City bankers who were only too willing to throw petrol on the fire as long as they had a fat bonus
This bunch of traitors behaved in exactly the same way as our MPs, only their trough is much bigger
ED BALLS MAKES HALF-HEARTED APOLOGY FOR THE LIEBOUR ‘GOVERNMENT’S FAILURES…
‘Failure of Global Regulation..’? Fuck Global regulation. Yet again a faux apology for something over which he had no control. Like apologising for slavery or ‘Bloody Sunday’. What about apologising for failures over which they did have control. Like UK legislation and UK borrowing.
But let’s pretend Ned is really sorry. So now we have to give him another go do we? And what is his remedy? More of the same you say Ned? More borrowing? To fix a problem caused by… too much borrowing?
You’re off your fucking head Ned.
Nuthn’s ma fult ye un’stn!
Gordon Brown alone did not create the financial crisis Well obviously not. There was Tony Blair and Ned Balls and 400 odd other Labour MPs who voted through whatever imbecility got into his fucked-up head.
But the two men at the top – Blair and Brown were most culpable. Blair knew Brown was insane but lacked the will to get rid of him – preferring to jet about the globe glad-handing folk like some celebrity politician. And Brown was happy to borrow money and create pretendy jobs and announce initiative after initiative time after time all funded with borrowed money. All the time briefing against Blair. Undermining any other potential rivals. Waiting for he moment to strike.
And on the periphery of this catastrophic deathmatch of Imbecility ‘v’ Image, cheered on by 400 Labour baboons, was the other 60 million of us. And the economy.
Fucked. Totally fucked.
Can I help with anything my friend?
In a more enlightened age treason and fuckwittery on this scale would have involved a great deal of molten lead.

I got my latest banksters statement today,and lo and behold I put more in compared to what I drew oput.
As a retired engineer who in the past has been responsible for millions of pounds budgets ranging through maintenace and capex spending within the chemical/pharma industry,it beggars belief to me as to what I read about the wastrel ways of government spend.
The way they spend shows complete and utter lack of respect to the taxpayers of this country.
Liebour and their ilk do not seem to grasp the basics of economics at all,well I suppose no surprises there.
Their now economic guru sounds to me an absolute basket case of a fortune seeker,I did view the couple of clips of her sounding off and I would say to her as in a school report- MUST TRY HARDER.
PS sorry guys oput should read out just testing you.
Thanks and goodnight sleep tight.

This prat apparently worked for the Bank of England.
No wonder we’re fucked.
So the BBC thinks Abu Qatada is not an extremist. So they think bombing people is legitimate political activity?
Only if Labour do it.
They wanked themselves into a frenzy when they thought the IRA had got rid of Thatcher in the brighton bombing
I haven’t been there much for ages now but the House of Commons are talking about abolishing Early Day Motions. Notwithstanding this, I will continue to get on with my 6.00am jobby.

What came first ? Phone hacking or your sleazy behaviour ?
Yes we do. And we think that what the great John PresDespot says about anything and everything is totaly right and that everyone eles is wrong
Yeah. A real loss to the country he was when it turned out he was fucking his secretary.
His crowning achievement? A staff of 2,000 to make him feel important and he decides to build 100,000 homes. On a flood plain. Then he has the audacity to accept a job lecturing the Chinese on ‘climate change’. Him being such an expert and all.
At least we can be assured that the Chinese have a sense of humour.
If I was Chinese I’d be wetting myself laughing at how the US and UK had destroyed their own economies. It was Lenin (I think) who quipped that the capitalists would sell them the rope with which we hang them.
Lenin was wrong. We didn’t sell them the rope. We didn’t even lend them the money to buy the rope. We didn’t even give them the rope. Greenspan and Brown went one better and just cut the Communists out of the loop altogether and just fucking well hung themselves (well – more accurately – they hung all 60 million of us).
How fucking stupid are/were Greenspan and Brown? How fucking stupid were the US and UK governments of the noughties? Really? Did the Chinese poison the water or something? Rohypnol in the HoC taps? Just wait till Brown had a cup of tea and then phone him up and ‘suggest’ he fucks the UK economy?
WTF happened? Were they really that fucking incompetent?
I wouldn’t laugh if I were Chinese, they’re even more fucked than we are.
We owe them 10 squillion bits of paper in return for lots of things made by people who couldn’t afford to buy them sold to people who probably wouldn’t afford to buy them without the chinese lending them the money.
I liked his ‘..integrated transport policy..’ announcement – and the day after those

Yep Foghorn Reeves descibes this most awful woman perfectly.
This is just the kind of woman I loathe. Staccato estuary voice nagging away in socialist nu-speak, zombie eyes, lank hair and utterly devoid of humour.
She’s not unlike Jacqui Smith, except five bellies had a trace of joviality about her. If this harridan ever got into a position of power I would end it all. Bye bye world. The Stanley knife is quite painless, I hear.
Not totally painless. Take an aspirin first.
She looks like that woman married to Jonathon Ross.
who’s the great fat slag with the big gob on sky papers at the moment? Looks to me like she could do with a bit of remedial treatment
there again, she’s a lefty, prob one of Ha Person’s crew
With apologies to Henry Leigh Hunt:
Abu Qutada (may his tribe decrease)
Awoke one night from a dream of release
And saw, within the shadows in his cell
Flickering light, as like the fires of hell:
A justice, writing in a book of ash:-
Incarceration had made Abu rash,
And to the Presence in the cell he said
“What writest thou?” – The justice raised his head,
And with a look made of all Strasbourg cant
Answered “The names of those allowed to rant”
“And is mine one?” said Abu. “Yea indeed”,
Replied the judge. Abu smiled indeed,
And tried his luck, and said “I pray thee, then
Bail me that I may rant again.”
The justice wrote, and vanished. The next night
After the Daily Mail had written some old shite
It came as no surprise – the politicians failed
And Abu was let out on bail.
Excellente!
Where does the Treasury get the 50% they get from these bonus payments if they are not paid.
Another labour harridan who’s had her head in the chip pan.
Oh dear.
Watched Reeves on JR and when she was asked,’what if bonuses are waived’, how would Labour, A- fill the hole left from the tax take from the bonuses & B- how would Labour then impliment their plan of ‘creating jobs etc etc.
Bless her. That had NEVER even entered her pretty little head,until that moment…Stumped, she simply gave an answer to a question that had not even been asked.
Balls, chuck, Ed & Rache…What a team.
On Sky Redknapp not guilty Hmc fucking but of clowns
Rachel Reeves said on Newsnight that bonuses were for doing ‘something exceptional’.
In 2006, before she joined HBOS, she worked at the Bank of England where 1606 out of 1744 people got bonuses, presumably including Ms. Reeves. Presumably that is because they were all exceptional – so exceptional that the whole financial sector was at the brink of collapse.
