I pay my taxes to pay for services such as health, policing and other essential services and not to bail-out irresponsible banks. We were told however, that the taxpayer had no other option than to finance the Banks to the tune of £37 billion to protect the UK economy.
Fine, but, at a time when everyone has been told to show restraint and the banks in question are under-performing, surely as stakeholders (taxpayers) we should have the right to express our anger at these obscene bonus payments.
