    exactly

    I've nowt against people reaping the rewards of success, (though even for a successful man 650k a year pension is an outrage.) but they should also pay the price of failure.

    This has been a good distraction though

    Is it only me that thinks this story's main purpose is distract the nation from the fact that the bank we just nationalised has just lost over 24BILLION pounds of our money

    and not only that we have just insured a further 325 BILLION POUNDS of "toxic assets" (assets???? ) in the same bank.

    so if it all goes tits up every man woman and child in this country will have to find over £5000 each just to cover this one bank... and its not the only one

    So a government who isnt even competent enough to sort out getting rid of one banker properly has committed thousands and thousands of pounds to bailing out the bank. And we are all looking at the guys pension and sort of missing the real story.

    I have a nasty feeling that in a few years time when the country is on its knees we will look back on the way Brown "saved the world" with his cunning plan and point to the policies of 2008 /9 as being the real killer.

    Really hope I'm wrong but I just think that the approach taken will all end in tears
