    This bit caught my eye ..
    Mr McKillen said he would return a call about a query relating to the loans but didn’t. When told about the nature of the query, he said: “Brilliant – appreciate that, thanks.”

    :cool:

    That bloody bank was rotten to the core, shady dealings everywhere. The government should let it collapse at this point and sell it for parts.

    A non-recourse loan to buy shares in the bank? There has to be something illegal in that.

    75% of their loans was based on security aaginst their shares in the bank. Because shares in the bank are now worthless, they get off scot free with that portion of the loan, they don't ever have to pay it back if they choose not to (does anyone think they actually will? yeah right). And guess who's gonna be picking up the tab now?

    How people haven't gone to jail over what happened in that bank defies belief. The government are obviously afraid to touch these guys as they're inextricably tied up in the whole rotten corruption themselves. They might make noises about chasing those people for the money but it will never happen. We're talking about their pals and benefactors here, all the way from the Galway tent, that's the bottom line of it.

    Well said!

    Any other country in the world and there would be heads rolling.

    And it pisses me off that not enough people are pissed off about this.
