Re: BEWARE! THE BANKS ARE OUT TO GET YOU!
Almost single handedly destroying so much wealth and yet no one is accountable? The GDP numbers are still 0.6% off the peak, all these years later. The warning signs were there all along, in the money supply numbers and the asset prices. Has there been a similar situation in history? Probably if you...

Fairly damning report into the management of the Co-operative bank, and the even more parlous state of Britannia when Gordon & Ed forged a wedding between the two. A deal that should never have been done, and maybe Britannia would have been another of those banks who lent money on property to go...

Re: BEWARE! THE BANKS ARE OUT TO GET YOU!
The Labour Party are giving hints that they are to move their accounts from the Co-op into a bank set up under the Union umbrella.
Seems they failed to mention that the Co-op licence that bank and more than 50% of the directors are from the Co-op
