"Truly, the behaviour of some of Britain’s banks has been beyond contempt.

Firstly, through greed and monumental misjudgment, they plunged Britain into a recession that could last a decade and which threatens our children’s futures."

And what of those like George Soros who engage in currency manipulation?

Soros supports BOTH Obama and Romney (long a biz partner).

"Barclays Bank Tower at Churchill Place, Docklands: The bank has been fined £290million over attempts to rig money market interest rates. HSBC is one of the twenty other banks also under investigation, it emerged today."

"Barclays’ shares crashed by 15.5 per cent in a day as the implications sank in, wiping £3.7billion from its value, with other banks also hit."

"Barclays has been fined £290million after devastating emails revealed that its traders manipulated the London Interbank Rate (Libor) – the rate at which banks lend money to each other."

Greedy banks making a profit in a semi-free market.

Everyone knows only governments are not greedy.Everyone knows government could fix the economy there if only they had more power to take away more money from the greedy private sector.

[a fool in paradise]

Labor unions are “never” greedy.

First I will admit that I don’t know a lot about the technicalities of banking.

Having said that, I have noticed every time there is a financial crises, a lot of people lose money but the banks seem to always get taken care of.

For all I know, it may be necessary to do so.

I think George Soros is just an errand boy for the big bankers and super rich that you will never hear their names. Like the ones that got the mysterious missing $3T that went overseas in the bailouts.

Punish the monkey, let the organ grinder (Soros) go.

Bankers must be made to pay for their greed

I agree -- along with the conniving politicians who granted them the power to coin money and charge us for the privilege of borrowing it. And then, when the banks have even screwed up that fringe benefit, the politicians tell the Federal Reserve to print some more to bail them out.

Banks, like any other private entity, have no power save that given to them by the government.

Some believe that the powers that be are a criminal cabal that form the shadow governments behind the nations government. But all have actively taken part in serious crimes against the people, leaving our nations bankrupt while they looted our hard earned money.

Theier cover is blown...humanity is waking up...and recognizes the criminal, and evil damage done by the so called Elite. This corruption cannot stand.

You can create legal authority over banksters but there is no legal authority over govsters. The choice of either corrupt corporations - fascists - abuse us or socialist corrupt goverment abuses us is the choice of European politics. We used to have a constitution and rule of law here.

Barclays has been fined £290million...

Barclays charging their customers an extra £290million to pay a fine.

Let's get realistic. This will not stop until the perps start going to jail.
