After viewing the Treasury Sub-committee inquiry this morning I was surprised to learn that not one of the C E O's could offer any specialist training or schooling when asked for their qualifications (C V ).
What's your take on this.

My take is there is no such thing as a 'banking qualification'.

I wonder what qualifies these MPs to be on the Treasury Select Committee?

It was one of the most ignorant questions of the day.

I notice nobody asked what qualifications Gordon Brown had when he became Chancellor. Maybe he'd done a BSC in Economy Destruction at Edinburgh Poly.

Not sure what you mean, are you saying that people with no qualifications should not be allowed to do anything ?

Good work. FFS.

WHat qualifies those fat chunts to be MPs, other than a drink problem and a predilection for fiddling expenses?


This country is full of jealous chunts. I am off to Geneva to escape it all.

I think he's saying that people who are going to be made scapegoats for wider problems in the economy are good targets if they havent done a Captain Mainwaring and grown up in the bank, from Post Room to Board Room.
The next argument will be around their not wholly understanding the complexities of the derivative trading market, which is semi-justifiable, though I suspect they were told enough to pacify them, and not quite enough about the downside.

It was just a cheap shot to pretend it was important.

As has already been said, what is Gordon's CV like for heading up the entire system or the select committee who seem to know almost naff all about the real world?

That's a bit harsh. Maybe you could start with just wishing her to have wonky top b*llocks and move onwards from there?

Once more, in English please.

Are you referring to the Proletariat's inability to add up? Or are you suggesting that 'prolly' is somehow representative of the term 'probably'?
