Mine is an earlybird, I'm a late person, but I can't stay up too much longer either because I know that I'll wake up when he gets up at 4.30.

An excellent post. I agree with every word. Especially the bike bit as I've often wondered that myself.

(By the way, it's "achieve", not "acheive".)

Yes, very cleaver of you

I'm sick of being lied too.

'*** is a well capitalized bank'
'best placed to etc etc'
'*** has no funding problems'
'it started in america'

Maybe I'm naive, but I'm sure politicians never used to be bare faced liars. There has always been spin/politalk but pure lies? When did this become acceptable?

I'd like to see independent pay and review bodies actually being independent - rather than the same people from the same golf club and sector giving each other pay rises.

I'd also like to see venture capitalist companies better regulated - they borrow huge amounts of money (they haven't got) so they can outbid everyone else to buy TopShop or a factory (so the share price goes up and owners get big payoffs) - only to then strip the business of assets to make a quick buck - that is not how capitalism works nor how business should operate.

Half our high street was owned by these vultures and who were caught out when their line of credit was stopped....and whilst we whinge about Sir Fred, the secretive Directors of these venture firms I am sure are rolling in it.

Maximum lending of 3X single salary, 3.5X joint salary for mortgages, minimum 10% deposit AND

maximum 0.5X multiple on unsecured, inclusive of:

Car Finance
Store Cards
Credit Cards

Any other consumer finance.

We still allow people to borrow, just not live of credit.

Regulated by an FSA that is overseen by a strong, powerful BOE that have the power to independently fine banks and limit products if they think they are reckless.

The FSA should be feared in the city. Not be walked all over.

Get rid of tax havens. Make mp's accountable for their actions and subject to the same rules and regulations as the proles. Get rid of unelected judges and have them voted in by the people. Make the pensions system equal and not an 'apartheid' system against private workers.
