Banking Regulation – A Revisitation

On the 27th September 2009 I made a speech to the English Democrats AGM and autumn conference entitled “ The ABC of Banking Regulation” (http://bit.ly/u2vCYM). I made the speech because as I said, “It [the bank crisis] happened because we had the lightest touch, and probably the most dysfunctional, bank regulatory scheme going”. The recent report on the Royal Bank of Scotland failure (the RBSR) by the Financial Services Authority, who were responsible for regulation, appears to agree with me.

Banking Regulation – Speech To The English Democrats Conference

27th September 2009

Single handed Gordon Brown has all but ruined England.

His hatred of the English, his incessant greed for power, his insane fixation on getting re-elected at any cost, his fear of rivals and almost paranoid attempts to “fix” things in his favour, his willingness to lie, to Parliament and the country, in order to achieve his own selfish ends, his inability to see the wood for the trees in all he does, but most of all, his mismanagement of the economy and of the financial system, have made of him a political monster almost without peer in English history.
