    Aired 30/7/2012. Actor and broadcaster, Tony Robinson has said that he no longer has any respect for British bankers and the British banking system.

    Speaking after Barclays was fined £290m for manipulating banking interest rates, Robinson catalogued how the banks had let down the country for their own interests. Watch more on the Question Time website.


    Nice one Tony

    This bloke is Labour so very funny him waffling on considering his chums Brown and Balls ,plus a few others no doubt, are expected to face enquiry questions over the bank rate shock horror :P

    Always thought banks set this lending rate anyway who ,last I knew, were private businesses so bit lost on all the excitement about business making money ..

    pub open ;D

    RBS private business Col? 82% state owned.

    Don’t bother singling out any big names from any of the 3 mainstream right-wing capitalist parties. It will come to pass, “They are all in this together.” I’m rarely wrong on such matters. [smiley=cheesy.gif] :

    Keep em coming Ducatista. Keep loading my gun and I’ll keep firing it.

    On a serious note, I predict the government will not sanction a public enquiry in to the banking scandal. Too much dirty washing and too many implicated to allow this to turn into a long running soap opera.

    A politician heading a parliamentary enquiry into the banking fiasco is like appointing Peter Sutcliffe governor of Broadmoor?

    Yeah I know it should have sunk along with Norfen Rocky except Labour decided to bail the wasters out and lumber the rest of us with more taxation...unnecessarily I guess you know I meant in the normal run of things ---anyway they are still members of Bank Association or whatever it's called now so have input into lending rate...fail to see how one bank can manipulate the rates though but ,obviously, has somehow :-?

    ;D love the diamond comment Ken

    that is somat else when the bloke who jumped ship crawls back to run the bloody thing as though Barclays hasn't got another gimp on the payroll to do it which is unbelievable

    Is Rossi past it ...and is Bautista going to be fined for utter **** riding ...These are the BIG questions...can Crutchlow do more than look at podiums like maybe even get a place on one so many questions so little time
