    As a man who owned a very substantial share of Anglo and was heavily involved in some of the shenanigans that went on at Anglo, applying the term "bankster" to him seems reasonable enough. Do we necessarily differentiate between people who work in banks and people who own them when deciding which terms to apply?

    Anyone can buy bank shares. That doesn't make them a banker.

    Max and his girlfriend genuinely thought they were talking about a banker when they referred to Quinn being sent to prison. I am still waiting for his prediction of the collapse of the Euro to happen.

    Would love to see a new social contract being created in Russia, under a Russian government, covered by Russia Today

    Also, when was the last time a Russian tv host called for a Russian minister to resign? And what happened to that host?

    He's no different than any other gobshíte. He looks to put himself in a position of saviour in everything he rants on about. If Vincent Browne held out on the stuttering for long enough to get to a point, we'd not be looking at any of the crap that fella raves on about.

    Now where did I see that before??? Ah yes two years ago, right here on AH. All I can say to anyone who missed it then, is don't watch it now.

    Who cares if you saw it before? So maybe save your self the trouble and let people decide for themselves.

    History repeats itself.

    The Catholic church covered up abuse, then were held to account, ordered to pay compensation to the victims, the Irish government ordered that the taxpayer, which would have included abuse survivors pick up the tab.

    the church still haven't paid the paltry sum they managed to get it down to in the end during the compo discussions with the state!

    Is this where we pretend to not be saturated by propaganda and it's only the poor stupid Russians?.

    I'm pretty sure making private agreements about disposing of shares with the likes of the golden circle makes one a bankster, if not a banker. A gobsh!te who was heavily involved in orchestrating the scandal and the catastrophe that followed.

    If we briefly overlook the use of the term banker, is there anything else you disagree with, specifically, in what was said in the video?
    Max and his girlfriend genuinely thought they were talking about a banker when they referred to Quinn being sent to prison.

    Again, he owned a substantial amount of the bank and was central to orchestrating its scandals and ultimate collapse. Apart from being pedantic over the term, what do you disagree with in the report?
    I am still waiting for his prediction of the collapse of the Euro to happen.

    That would appear to have been at least temporarily prevented by screwing over ordinary people once again to save it.
