As for Diane Abbott, i'd have to agree, she does keep scoring own goals. Can't see her lasting long.

The banks were in on the chaos and the politicians supposedly regulating it all weren't in listening mode as the former HBOS executive who warned about what was going on and was slapped down found out. The same was happening elsewhere and the truth is they were all too busy making themselves look good by spending all that lovely tax revenue the banks were paying them to buy more votes. Gordon Brown eventually admitted to the regulatory failures which allowed the banking crisis to develop.
