Sir Fred shreds the Government's fiscal plans

Sir Fred Goodwin takes the biscuit! Or is it the shortbread? He's got plenty of bread that's for sure. The arrogant man, who still doesn't quite get it, that he screwed up his bank and almost single-handedly put this country at risk of joining the Zimbabwe league, is going to keep his pension pot at this excessive amount. He's the only man in the country who thinks it's all ok.

The government is up to their necks in slippery spin and slapdash administration. Asking the likes of Sir Fred to do the decent thing is like asking a lion to get his claws off a wildebeest's back! The man is showing himself up and we all know what we think.

This is the text of his letter to Lord Myners. I think it conveys the mind of a man who is in denial. As much as this government is.

We need a new broom and it better not be a witch's one!
