So its okay for BoE to just do as they are told without complaint?

I have a feeling Cameron and Georgie Porgie are fishing here, making a big deal out of resisting a JE then when MilliBalls cry foul loud enough they will give them what they want hoping the dirt will really be dished!!

Could be interesting.

Diamond says he didn't know until a few weeks ago.. and yet the telegraph states he warned the govt in 2008. funny how you can't comment that particular telegraph "story"

In that picture , I detect fear in his eyes.

Given that it was probably taken from a file, I reckon the fear is of people discovering he's completely and utterly devoid of any economic knowledge; other than the utopian crap his party fed him when he joined.

Who gives a damn who specifically is to blame, I personally don't want scapegoats but want to try and use this past 2 years to get some regulation in to protect us against corruption.

Corrupt police, corrupt ministers, corrupt bankers and now even the BoE is implicated....

Is this Britain or the far east, just how much cash is being trousered out of our treasury and economy?

All cash is eventually trousered by someone or other.

Sorry I should have given more emphasis to the term out of our economy.

A lot of people trouser money and that's good of course, but it remains in the UK economy.

Funny, because I was just watching yesterday an old episode (2009) of "The Oracle with Max Keiser" and he was openly talking of interest rate manipulation by English banks. Of course the BBC sacked him a few weeks later.

My bet is that Labour want the judicial review because they know it will take years and that if the finger is pointed at Brown and Darling, they know that the electorate will have forgotten all about it. The Tories will want the faster enquiry so that any mud it throws sticks. The Tories have nowt to lose in this. they were not in power.
