		<description>Instead of Harman, Myners and Mandelson &quot;ratcheting up the pressure&quot; on the bankers how about just telling them &quot;No&quot; you can&#039;t have your bonuses?

Won&#039;t happen. I guarantee that dithering, useless oaf Gordon Brown will have another &quot;review&quot; while the bankers get away with our money.

LFF needs to address the more important issue here and explain why the UK taxpayer has to pay in excess of £33 million for advice the Treasury took regarding bailing out the banks. Wtf were they being paid for then if not to sort this lot out? 

The banks should have been thrown to the wind, the shares in the bad ones would have collapsed and the good banks could then have bought up - it&#039;s called capitalism. The banking system was never going to collapse. 

Regarding climate change; with the earth cooling every year and the so called &quot;peer reviews&quot; being conducted worldwide by less than 40 &quot;scientists&quot; and we know the types of people they are from the leaked emails, I&#039;m surprised Ed Miliband even mentions his &quot;80% carbon emission cuts by 2050&quot;.

Kyoto didn&#039;t reduce emissions by 2010 so you just come up with another summit and set some goal years ahead with your&#039;re well out of office yourself by the time they are not reached. That&#039;s decisive.

It&#039;s a shame the Milibands of this world have not done a real job for a living before entering politics with their delusional tunnel visioned views of the world. 

Can anyone here imagine for a minute that Harold Wilson would have employed some of these New Labour drongos in any position other than making the tea?</description>
