RBS Is In A Downward Spiral

This morning RBS has announced another 3,500 job losses on top of 2,000 announced, just a few months ago.

I’ve always felt that RBS should have been allowed to go bust.  I think now, that some of the employees who are still left, wish it had happened, as at least they’d now know where they stand. I suspect too, if they’d been put out of work at the time, they might have been able to have rebuilt their lives and careers since.

Now they are just in an awful state of limbo.

The country might be in a better state too, if the money used to prop up RBS had been used for more important purposes.

But saving RBS was just a bribe to Scotland, by Britain’s worst-ever Prime Minister, Gordon Brown. As he got voted out in 2010, it didn’t even work!
