HOW DO WE FEEL ABOUT BANKERS?

A banker has defied the economic gloom by spending more than £70,000 in one night at a London nightclub.

The City worker, who has not been named, is said to have bought a £1,860 bottle of vodka for all 24 tables at Rose in Marylebone.

The man, who was joined by nine friends at his table, also left a £10,000 tip on top of the £7,966 service charge on his bill for £71,000.60. The tip will be split between eight waitresses.

So how do we feel about these fuckers?  Do we say, "it was his money to do what he wants with" or "why should these fuckpigs have that sort of money when they ruined the country and he rest of us are suffering for it"?

TOP TEN BANKING JOKES

Why don't sharks attack bankers? Professional courtesy.

----------------

A young banker decided to get his first tailor-made suit. As he tried it on, he reached down to put his hands in the pockets but to his surprise found none.

He mentioned this to the tailor who asked him, "You're a banker, right?" The young man answered, "Yes, I am."

"Well, whoever heard of a banker put his hand in his own pocket?"

----------------
An investment banker said he was going to concentrate on the big issues from now on. He sold me one in the street yesterday.
----------------
Bankers are people that help you with problems you would not have had without them.
----------------
A man visits his bank manager and says, "How do I start a small business?" The manager replies, "Start a large one and wait six months."
----------------
If you owe the bank £100, that's your problem. If you owe the bank £100m, that's the bank's problem.
----------------
Hospitals report that the hearts of bankers are in strong demand by transplant patients, because they’ve never been used.
----------------
Bankers never die...They just lose interest.
----------------
What's the problem with banker jokes? Bankers don't think they're funny, normal people don't think they're jokes.
----------------
The biggest joke of all? Bailed out bank Lloyds paying for sense of humour training at the Comedy School. That's one thing money can't buy.

NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL TAX EVASION!

There are more Porsche Cayennes registered in Greece than taxpayers declaring an income of 50,000 euros (£43,800) or more, according to research by Professor Herakles Polemarchakis, former head of the Greek prime minister’s economic department.

Now that has to be some really good tax evasion.  It's no wonder the bastards are going bust.  Although I believe Spain and Italy are not far behind.  I remember going with a Spanish friend who ran a restaurant, 20 years ago to the Spanish cash and carry.  He gave me a trolley, he also took one and he split the purchased between the different trolleys.  When I asked him why, he told me his was the official one and mine was the 'black money' one and right enough at the till he paid his with a cheque and mine with cash.

I was reading somewhere else that workers in Italy cannot be paid off due to economic reasons and one of the Greek leaders wives, who is a teacher and retired on a full pension at 39!  Is it only the Northern Europeans who do any work?  Or are we the stupid bastards, who have no protection from our employers?  In Spain, practically everything is done on a cash basis.  I've just spent a considerable amount on building work at my new place and it was all cash to the builder and all his workers were being paid cash.  If no one pays any tax, how do they run the country.  Then again, I suppose they don't waste it on wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, countries that have fuck all to do with us and where Pakistan, according to a TV programme I saw, has been working with the Taliban, big time, while receiving $billions from the Yanks.

Cash it seems, makes the world go round.  It is reckoned that by 2020, half the money in the world will be traded in 'system D', which is where everything is done in cash and no tax is paid.  Is this how we're going to finally get rid of our leeching banker scum?

HOW THE BANKERS AND THE PTB WILL STEAL EUROPE

IF ONLY THE BRITISH WERE AS AWARE AS THE SPANISH!

TOMA LA CALLE MEANS TAKE TO THE STREETS

All over Spain, people are protesting about their politicians and what the bankers have created.  The following is their manifesto.  If only the lily livered Brits who let their politicians screw them time after time, were as aware and brave:

We are ordinary people. We are like you: people, who get up every morning to study, work or find a job, people who have family and friends. People, who work hard every day to provide a better future for those around us.
Some of us consider ourselves progressive, others conservative. Some of us are believers, some not. Some of us have clearly defined ideologies, others are apolitical, but we are all concerned and angry about the political, economic, and social outlook which we see around us: corruption among politicians, businessmen, bankers, leaving us helpless, without a voice.
This situation has become normal, a daily suffering, without hope. But if we join forces, we can change it. It’s time to change things, time to build a better society together. Therefore, we strongly argue that:

• The priorities of any advanced society must be equality, progress, solidarity, freedom of culture, sustainability and development, welfare and people’s happiness.
• These are inalienable truths that we should abide by in our society: the right to housing, employment, culture, health, education, political participation, free personal development, and consumer rights for a healthy and happy life.
• The current status of our government and economic system does not take care of these rights, and in many ways is an obstacle to human progress.
• Democracy belongs to the people (demos = people, krátos = government) which means that government is made of every one of us. However, in Spain most of the political class does not even listen to us. Politicians should be bringing our voice to the institutions, facilitating the political participation of citizens through direct channels that provide the greatest benefit to the wider society, not to get rich and prosper at our expense, attending only to the dictatorship of major economic powers and holding them in power through a bipartidism headed by the immovable acronym PP & PSOE.
• Lust for power and its accumulation in only a few; create inequality, tension and injustice, which leads to violence, which we reject. The obsolete and unnatural economic model fuels the social machinery in a growing spiral that consumes itself by enriching a few and sends into poverty the rest. Until the collapse.
• The will and purpose of the current system is the accumulation of money, not regarding efficiency and the welfare of society. Wasting resources, destroying the planet, creating unemployment and unhappy consumers.
• Citizens are the gears of a machine designed to enrich a minority which does not regard our needs. We are anonymous, but without us none of this would exist, because we move the world.
• If as a society we learn to not trust our future to an abstract economy, which never returns benefits for the most, we can eliminate the abuse that we are all suffering.
• We need an ethical revolution. Instead of placing money above human beings, we shall put it back to our service. We are people, not products. I am not a product of what I buy, why I buy and who I buy from.

For all of the above, I am outraged.
I think I can change it.
I think I can help.
I know that together we can.I think I can help.

I know that together we can.

DEBT CRISIS LOVES LOW WAGES AND REDUCED WORKING RIGHTS!

 

"Financial strategists do not intend to let today’s debt crisis go to waste. Foreclosure time has arrived. That means revolution – or more accurately, a counter-revolution to roll back the 20th century’s gains made by social democracy: pensions and social security, public health care and other infrastructure providing essential services at subsidized prices or for free. The basic model follows the former Soviet Union’s post-1991 neo-liberal reforms: privatization of public enterprises, a high flat tax on labour but only nominal taxes on real estate and finance, and deregulation of the economy’s prices, working conditions and credit terms.
            What is to be reversed is the “modern” agenda. The aim a century ago was to mobilize the Industrial Revolution’s soaring productivity and technology to raise living standards and use progressive taxation, public regulation, central banking and financial reform to distribute wealth fairly and make societies more equal. Today’s financial aim is the opposite: to concentrate wealth at the top of the economic pyramid and lower labour’s returns. High finance loves low wages". (Remember how we got the first waves of mass immigration from Asia to Britain, mill owners in the North of England bringing in cheap Bangladeshi workers).

That's a quote from a piece by a Prof. Michael Hudson, the full content of which can be read here.  And I do urge you to read it.  He's obviously an extremely well informed and educated person and as such, it is better than the usual standard of shite, I spout!

As I'm sure most of you know, I'm not a natural left winger and would never class myself as such, but there are things going on in the world that we are not party to and are out with our 'democratic control'.  The Bankers discovered centuries ago, and you know of whom I speak, that Rulers were a bad risk.  When they died, mostly their successors would have nothing to do with their debts.  They did discover however that it was better to lend to 'democratic' Governments because the elected politicians had a responsibility to pay off a country's debts.  This is what is happening in Greece at the moment.  The Bankers insist that Greece should sell off all it's assets to pay them back for, what was in the first instance, their fuck up.  It's no wonder that the people of Greece are rebelling as they see their pensions, wages and workers' rights, go down the Swanee.

Oh It's OK saying their rights were too good and they should pay etc, etc, etc.  But remember that, when the bankers come for your pension or your NHS or, god forbid, foreclose on your home.  They are already talking about summoning Osborne to the EU Parliament to explain his economic policies.  Will the British people have the strength of the Icelandic people to stand up to the ECB, or will we fold as usual as our elected representatives get paid off with influential jobs in the coming Global Government?

I know what my guess would be!

NEW BOOK REVEALS HOW ISRAEL ARMED THE ARGIES DURING THE FALKLANDS WAR

COUNT YOUR RINGS, MAGGIE!

Israel secretly provided arms and supplies to Argentina during the Falklands conflict, according to revelations in a new book. Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin had such a deep-rooted hatred of the British that the Jewish state covertly became the biggest supplier of military equipment to the Argentine military junta.

Gas masks, radar alert systems, air-to-air missiles and fuel tanks for fighter bombers were sent from Tel Aviv to arm General Galtieri’s forces. The most audacious deal involved supplying 23 French-built fighter aircraft – Mirage IIICs – which were camouflaged with the insignia of Peru.

My views on Israel and people who follow the Jewish religion has been well documented on this blog, so it doesn't really surprise me, that Zionist bankers were financing the UK Treasury whilst at the same time they were supplying arms to the Argies. Why am I not surprised?  Because it is happening all over the world at the current time.  In every country where there is armed conflict, you will find a Jewish banker financing it.

Look at Libya.  Where are the 'rebels' getting their arms or the money for arms.  Why from Jewish Bankers with promises of oil concessions.  They've been arming Gaddafi for years.  Arm both sides and sit back and watch the money rolling in.  That's the Jewish business plan! 

CABLE GUILTY OF BANKERISM!

Vince Cable should be sacked for using a BANKERISM.  What kind of country is this, when we don't worship our Bankers?

HEY ME OLD COCK SPARRA-LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL, MATE!

ME WITH A COUPLE OF PROSSIES AT A DO LAST WEEK, INIT!

Barclays has handed its high-flying investment bankers a 22 per cent pay rise - while heaping scorn on government threats to impose targets for small business lending.  In a move that will intensify public anger over City pay, Britain's third largest bank has earmarked £2.9billon for the pay and bonus pool at its investment banking division for the first six months of the year alone.
The Government's bleedin' MERCHANT BANKERS, mate, if they think they can keep us wide boys back.  No way mate, me and me mate Brian, we made £2 mil squid on Tuesday for gaffers, mind you we lost £3 mil squid on Wednesday. Yeh, me and him is derivatives traders.  We're on the dog and bone all day, mate.  Well, were top dogs, you've got to pay us top money or we won't be able to lose any of the firm's.  Just joshing, HAAAR!  Me and him like to down a few bottles of Chandon of an evening, if we can't find anything more expensive, mate, HAAAR!

Anyway got to go now, mate, Peregrine got us some Birds with big threepenny bits waiting to be squeezed!  HAAAR!  Give my best to the PLEBS.  HAAAR!

ICELAND ARREST TOP BANKERS, WHY AREN'T WE?

Vigorously pursuing those allegedly responsible for Iceland’s 2008 financial crisis, investigators have  issued an international arrest warrant against Sigurdur Einarsson, chairman of the board of governors of the failed Kaupthing Bank.
An Interpol notice on Tuesday said Einarsson was wanted on charges of counterfeiting, forgery and fraud.
Einarsson, who lives in London, was said to be reluctant to come to Reykjavik for fear of being arrested and Icelandic authorities have refused to offer any assurances.


Why aren't we arresting our Bankers that caused the FINANCIAL CRISIS?  Instead we reward them for failing with increased salaries and bonuses.  Could it be that ICELAND is a small country where the Government is much closer to the people?

A RADICAL SOLUTION TO THE FINANCIAL CRISIS-CULL THE 'COFFINDODGERS'

Today, I would like to make a recommendations to the Cameron Government.  Compulsory retirement at aged 65 for everybody and a CULL of all COFFINDODGERS when they reach 75.

This would free NHS spending for us younger people who need it.  It would save £billions in Pensions, free TV licenses, bus passes and the Winter fuel allowance.  It would also help employment as the funeral industry would have to take on extra staff for digging graves and the like.  All their assets should also go to the state, thereby allowing us to pay of the debt that GORDON BROWN and the BANKERS, (sounds like a 60's group), ran up, when he allowed them free rein. 
To balance the equation, we should help pensioners enjoy their last 10 years by giving them free membership of bowling and golf clubs for the men and positions of responsibility in the W.R.I. for the women.  Fair's fair.  By the time the Arthritis sets in by the age of 75, they'll be happy to unburden themselves on society.  Quite but dignified funerals will be arranged by the state and paid out of their assets.  Their families will be saved the pain of watching their elderly relatives suffer as they do now or worse suffer the shock that can happen when a Father or Mother pops their clogs, unexpectedly.

All in all, a much more dignified end to some one's life.  I would anticipate that if this scheme runs for exactly 19 years 6 months, we will have more than paid off the National Debt and we can let those lucky people who will have reached 74 years by that time, live the rest of their lives, until the end comes naturally. 

ACCLAIM FOR NEW SCOTTISH CHAMPIONS!

ONE of Scotland's most notorious criminal families was exposed last night as the UK's largest organised shoplifting gang.



Branded as the "biggest and richest" outfit in the UK, members of Glasgow's infamous McGovern gang were caught on camera making off with thousands of pounds worth of goods in less than two minutes.  Targeting shops around the UK and mainland Europe, BBC Scotland's Millionaire Thieves showed how members of the gang stole over £1,500 worth of stock in under two minutes – raking in £100,000 a day through a series of complex deceptions.

Head of the clan, Jimmy told Dark Lochnagar, " I'm proud, really proud, at grabbing the UK record.  We have been running a close second to the Murphy gang from Liverpool, but some of the scouse bastards got time and our superior knocking power put us in the lead.  People say we're thieves, but I tell them to look at the banks, at least we work hard for our money.  We don't have that gormless, one-eyed, shitebag Brown throwing money at us.  No, what we have, we had to take.  M&S is our favourite because they give you money back on anything, no questions asked.  Just as long as you have it in a M&S bag, piece of cake!

It is my earnest hope that we can end 2010, where we have started, Numero uno!  We will however get some serious competition from some of the London mobs, but we have an agreement not to knock on each others' patches."

Next year's competition is interesting Simon Cowell, who wants to call the programme, 'THIEVING ON THIN ICE'.

PRINCE ANDREW URGES BROWN TO KEEP TAX LOOPHOLES AND BANKERS' BONUSES

PRINCE ANDREW AND A HORSE IN A HAT PICTURED YESTERDAY

Prince Andrew has been criticised for meddling in party politics after urging the Government to preserve a controversial loophole that allows Britain’s wealthiest residents to avoid paying millions of pounds in tax each year.

Gordon Brown has pledged to axe rules allowing wealthy ‘non-domiciled’ foreigners living in Britain to escape UK tax on foreign earnings which they keep abroad. The matter has been the subject of fierce political debate, but the Duke of York’s comments – which were not cleared with the Government in advance – are particularly controversial because of his friendship with affluent tycoons who could be hit hard by any rule change. Andrew’s remarks are also significant because he has held an official post as Britain’s trade and investment ambassador for the past eight years.

The 49-year-old Prince, nicknamed Airmiles Andy because of his jet-set lifestyle, also defended City bonuses, saying it would be wrong to ‘demonise’ the banking sector.

A BIT OF ADVICE, YOUR ROYAL HIGHNESS. Your old mother has managed to hold the Monarchy together, by not getting involved publicly in POLITICS, as did your GRAND MAMA, mind you she was as THICK AS SHITE! However if you feel that you would like to BECOME A POLITICIAN, STAND AS AN M.P. and if elected it will save us a fortune from the Civil List, to say nothing about FRIVOLOUS HELICOPTER FLIGHTS!

ALL THINGS CONSIDERED PROBABLY BETTER TO STICK TO THE GOLF AND SHAGGING DEBUTANTES.
