Bankers v Politicians

Darling knows how he does it but the next in line for vitriol are the bankers (again!). This time, quite rightly, RBS.
Yes, it is disgusting that bankers, who are failing spectacularly, want to continue paying themselves big bonuses in such an economic climate.
But what on earth can Darling do? He's clearly angry that we've just bailed out RBS for £20bn abd £1bn will be paid out in bonuses. This is bloody annoying.
But we need to be serious when tackling this and start to bring back teeth into government before making empty threats.
RBS should be ashamed of themselves, of course, but let's see action before we go into rant mode on Sunday morning television.
My answer would be to threaten to withdraw our hard-earned tax pounds in any bailout.
