    Big bonues culture.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/news...D-bonuses.html


    Referring to the £47 million paid out in bonuses this year alone, the Prime Minister said that some of the recipients had been out to Iraq and Afghanistan.

    Speaking as he visited an engine manufacturing plant in Gillingham, Kent, Mr Brown said: "If there are any questions asked over the bonuses, I will examine them.

    Official MoD figures showed a total of £287,809,049 has been paid out in bonuses to civil servants since 2003, the year Britain went to war in Iraq.


    Perhaps them greedy bankers aren't so greedy after all.

    Maybe the witless and clueless are at last beginning to get their heads round the answer to the question "where has all the money gone?"
    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

      Don't knock the bonuses. They give them to contractors too you know.
