You may well get your wish, I don't think he'd have resigned unless he knew the wolves were after him.
It will be interesting to see how Cameron deals with all this, his pals in the City will be hoping he keeps their backs covered but the "people" have had enough.
It was Barclays that reported the incident to the FSA, it was the FSA who made the record fine - how do you reconcile that with your vision of this murky world of back street deals and winks and nudges?
Barclays reporting the practice does not exonerate them. I want all the banks and individuals involved in this grand-fraud fined to the hilt and some serious jail-terms handed out. Not just for the Barclays lot - but all of the banks involved.
Does the general public not realise how much they have been swindled in the past 7 years or more?
We've payed too much for loans, mortgages and credit cards 'cos the 'free-market' was 'fixed'. Small businesses have been mis-sold useless and expensive financial products, some people have gone bankrupt, had their houses repossessed. Even worse, some people have taken their own lives, killed their loved ones 'cos they can't cope with modern life and the financial pressures it brings. The banks with their fraudulent practices have aided and abetted many tragedies. You may think I'm exaggerating but these bankers have blood on their hands. And I want the bastards to pay.
