I cant believe you said that !!!!

Cameron DID AGREE that Hester should NOT get more than £1 million from the Tax Payer for the bonus.

Hester only received a paltry £ 963.000 bonus which is in line with "Call Me Dave`s" recommendation, So what is hypocritical about that !!!

RBS has been bought by Santander and the switchover is taking place over the next few months. Am not happy about my bank changing over the Santander, got notification in December. Time to change banks I feel.
I am who I am, like me or loathe me - its your choice

Well am down to 8 lives left, just wasted 1 recently but what does not kill you makes you stronger.

Boris speaks well on the matter I think

BBC News - 'Far fetched' that government cannot step in over RBS bonus

Does this mean ... seeing as we are all in it together ... that all public sector workers will get a bonus equal to a years wages cos this twat is a public sector worker?

..do you mean get bonuses, I think a lot of them do you know, they're called a 'gratuity' or something but although I don't seek to defend the guys bonus, there has been some fascinating debate on the subject in the news.
Some say that he is doing a complex and crucial job getting RBS ready for going back private, some say he's already taken a huge cut in bonus compared with other people in his field, some say it would cost more if he and his mates ditched and the government had to put someone in...opinions like this

..then I heard someone from America saying that the bonus and remuneration over there had got out of hand and even companies on the verge of bankruptcy were paying them - the suggestion is that the current systems of capitalism are going under
