should he get paid a bonus? I'd say yes if he has met the targets that were set, should it be so much? probably not but at these levels numbers do become detached form real value that you and I talk about.
I shouldn't imagine too many folk are concerned wi that, More concerned wi the fact that many are losing money,working longer ect, Yet Cameron says were all in this together............. Not those who actually caused this banking mess, can have big bonuses.
