Revenge of the whistleblower

" Mr Moore, who held a senior post at the bank between 2002 and 2005, said anyone 'not blinded by money, power and pride' knew there was something wrong.

He warned the HBOS board but was 'summarily dismissed' by Sir James and subjected to a ' gagging' order"

Mr Moore will be a voice in the wilderness as all the guilty "Close Ranks".

If there was any justice, this Government would be toppled by such revelations.

And anytime soon, the usual posters will be saying, "It's just more from the "Daily Mail"

"And anytime soon, the usual posters will be saying, "It's just more from the "Daily Mail" - - - - - -Scooby.

They will waste space then. The BBC and the Guardian have covered the story also. Brown ignored similar warnings from the IMF.

It's looking more and more like Brown was complicit in the banking crisis. This really should be a government toppling scandal like Scooby says but it won't be. The most corrupt government in the history of Britain will cling onto power and try to do as much damage as they can to mess things up for the Tories. Utter scum.

BANK BOSSES URGED TO STICK APOLOGIES UP THEIR ARSE


THE former bank bosses blamed for kick-starting the worst recession for 100,000 years were last night urged to take their apologies and ram them so far up their back passages their heads will pop off.

The ex-HBOS and RBS executives told a Commons committee they were sorry about all the bad things that had happened, stressing the only thing that had kept them going during this stressful time was their enormous, untouchable wealth.

But, they insisted, they had also been victims of the financial crisis having lost so many of their favourite pounds.



Close to tears, Andy Hornby, the former head of HBOS, said: "In the last two years I have lost more pounds than I earned in salary. These were some of the finest, most decent pounds I have ever worked with. They were my best friends and I will never see them again."

A clearly distraught Sir Fred Goodwin, the former RBS chief, showed the committee a photograph of his favourite £10 note, lost during a particularly greedy and stupid deal last March.

He said: "I sent it off to be part of some dodgy credit default swap arrangement, fully expecting to see it again a few days later.

"But at around 4pm that day I got a phone call saying it - and 250 million of its little friends - were gone. I fell to my knees, clutching this photograph and weeping like a grandmother."

He added: "I'll remember his strong, square edges and his picture of Charles Darwin looking at a hummingbird. He was the best £10 note a man could have wished for."

Committee member Tom Logan said: "Between you, you've banked seven figure salaries, you have enormous pensions and you will live in total luxury for the rest of your lives, while the hopes and dreams of millions have been shattered.

"Thank you for coming here today and I only wish there was a seething mob outside with a can of petrol, a large wooden stake and a box of Swan Vestas."
