Also its not as bad as it sounds because he isnt getting the money theres stipulations attatched and it s been paid in shares which he will only get if a certain target is reached sometime around 2014 or something
i forget the details i heard them in teh car on the radio but he isnt getting a huge cash bonus in his next pay packet
not saying its right what he is getting but its no where near as bad as its been hyped up to be and like i said if any blame is to be dealt it should be at labour for making such a stupid thing possible by contract

The claim made by Cameron that this bonus was in a binding contract has been shown to be lies... the contract states that Hester should be "considered" for a bonus by the board of RBS, then it had to be approved by ministers... the board of RBS submitted the bonus to the government and the government approved this bonus.
