Protestors singing Build A Bonfire

[coventrygull]

very much so....

Now I am no lover of the crusties having bashed a few in the old days. I just feel that waving money out of financial institutions who only now exist because of the tax payer is bang out of order.

Other way round I would imagine. The majority are at work/working from home trying to sort out the mess their bosses have put them in over the last few years (most working longer hours than they ever have) and the minority are 'laughing in their million pound pads, going 'how the f*** did we get away with that?!''

seconded as well !

Im a so called "banker" - i.e. i work for a financial institution - i dont earn millions, i was lucky enough to keep my job but take a pay cut along with most other benefits and when antagonised by a bunch of crusties its my "democratic" right to respond accordingly....just as it is thiers to protest in the first place. pretty sure waving paper doesnt cause too much pain... except a nasty paper cut you get from a crisp 50 pound note

and are now owned by the tax payer who if history is anything to go by will profit handsomely when the cyclical market rebounds.

I do agree that it could have been handled better - RBS pension issue etc...

I won't hold my breath. My Mrs is a banker so I have some sympathy for the ordinary worker

When we sing that, my brain always makes me sing "put Bill Odie on the top" I can't stop myself.

Build a bonfire
Build a bonfire
Put Frank's bathroom floorboards on the top
Put his piss-poor attempt at plumbing in the middle
And we'll burn the f****** lot

got one as well on Sunday afternoon from those little blighters , FFS , even after checking that a new £50 note is kosher I still need a supervisor to verify that its genuine.

Oh f*** off. You all got too greedy and it's ordinary people who are paying the price, don't expect sympathy. People have got every right to protest about the way financial institutions were allowed to get away with chasing the next quick buck to get a bigger and better bonus at the end of the year. It doesn't matter if they're crusties, Italians or one legged dwarves from Barnsley, at the end of the day you and your city boy mates have to hold your hands up and admit you got it badly wrong.

Yep - ALL of us got greedy and made $hit loads.... me, one of the 1000s who work for a certain Blue Box company with a big HQ in brighton who earn sooo much money.... I dont even earn enough to buy a house in the town I was born in but feel free to lump me in with the CEOs of a few financial institutions who made off with all the cash. Its ill informed divs like you that make my blood boil 11

I will now retreat to my penthouse in Tribeca with a venti skiny latte from starbucks and watch Sportscenter on my 100 inch plasma....
