Time to get a reality cheque from banks

ONE London-based international banking firm has told its employees they must start cutting back a bit in view of the current credit crunch.
In future the poor dears may have to consider second class travel for short journeys and lunch on expenses should not exceed £100.
Next time one of the big financial institutions asks the Government, in other words you and me as taxpayers, to bail them out, we must bite the bullet and think of those worse off than ourselves.
We sympathise. I mean, where in Cumbria can you get a businessman’s lunch for under a hundred quid?
