I hope he does not mind me reposting this....it sums up the situation better than I ever could.
To be fair to us greedy sponging whingeing ungrateful Scotch beggars, we need a bit more clarity on the whole 'bank bail-out' issue. HBOS was only half a Scottish bank. The rest of it was a Halifax bank - that's right, check out the name: HALIFAX Bank of Scotland.
So half of the blame should be going to the greedy sponging whingeing beggars of Halifax. That's right. Half of it was their fault. So they should be compensating the noble generous English people for their half of the bail-out.
And the other one? Take a look at the name. That's right, ROYAL Bank of Scotland. So half of that one was the Queen's fault. She should have to pick up her share of the tab.
The good news for the greedy sponging whingeing beggars of Scotland and Halifax, and for Her Noble Majesty The Queen, is that because these banks were never actually 'British' banks, but 'Scottish/Halifax/Queeny' banks, then all those billions and billions in corporation tax that poured into the British exchequer during the good decades should never have gone there in the first place! They should have gone to the people of Scotland and Halifax! (Oh and Her Maj, of course. Don't forget Her Maj's share.)So give us back all that money, and we'll use it to compensate you noble generous English people for the actual, real-terms, cost of the bail-out (a few billions). After which, we'll own the banks outright. And everybody will be happy. The whingeing scrounging ungrateful beggars of Halifax and Scotland, Her Majesty, and all the noble generous people of England.
