I
thought you might like a bit of an update on the Co-operative pantomime villain
Paul Flowers. The link below will provide you with your 60 second recap……
Well
the first thing to mention is that it was ‘gentlemen’ of the night not
‘ladies’. Sincere apologies for misleading.
Secondly,
Paul Flowers no longer sits on Ed Miliband’s Labour Finance Advisory Group. You
don’t want a loose cannon within a non-safe distance leading up to a General
Election now would you!!!!!
Thirdly
(and least surprisingly), nobody has / wants to take any responsibility for
originally awarding Paul Flowers a ‘fit and proper’ person to run a banking
institution in the UK. What is surprising though is that the Supervision
Director (Clive Adamson) at the regulator has stated he has “no regrets” and
“it wasn’t a mistake”. Really? Exactly which part wasn’t a mistake?
Well,
I was brought up to take responsibility for my actions, admit mistakes and
learn from them. I naively assumed that others do the same but it appears there
are too many in politics and financial regulation who don’t. What a shame……we
would be a far better country for it.
I’ll
just add it to the list of disappointments we ‘accept’ from those that
represent us.
