Did I say no English banks were involved? In was commenting on a remark about English bankers and pointing out the role Scottish banks (not to mention a Scottish Chancellor) played in the crash.
I think you'll find that the Govt. bailouts required by RBS and BOS dwarfed Northern Crock and all the others. The Scottish bank failures account for the majority of public funds which were poured into the backing system so whilst greed is universal the English really can't be blamed for everything.
