All In The Best Possible Taste.......NOT!


According to weekend newspaper articles, less than a month since Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) was given a £20 billion bailout from the British taxpayers they have blown £300,000 on a lavish secret champagne party for executives.

RBS are said to have gone to enormous lengths to try to keep the party secret (I wonder why?) amid the financial meltdown, one step was to cancel the original venue and then moving the executives with partners 350 miles away north to Edinburgh.

It wasn’t only RBS who enjoyed a lavish evening at the expense of the taxpayer, the previous night HBOS who were also given £11.5 billion of public cash enjoyed a party at an Edinburgh hotel costing £330,000.

So the pigs are still in the trough!!
