  • Re: Sir Fred Goodwin is not a banker

    Thanks for lightening the mood CC.

    In answer to one of your queries, yes there are lists of transgressors published in Freemasonry Today, the in house rag, which gives details of those brothers whose fraternal benefits have been withdrawn. The last one I read was the one in which Lord Northampton gave a blistering rebuke to critics on the subject of the Book of Revelation being the happy hunting ground of conspiracy theorists.

    Well all I can say Fred is beware of the pale horse:-- "and behold I saw a pale horse and the name of him that sat upon it was Death followed by hell"

      Why is this chap not behind bars!. Goodwin presided over an institution that cooked the books which is a criminal offense is it not?.

        John Hemming is correct. The judges are also trying to restrict our fundamental right to access Hansard. One has therefore to question the reasons behind this.

        Surely they are not so stupid, arrogant or so far out of touch in these days of instant information as to believe they can get away with it?

        I have said it before and will say it again, Goodwin deserves everything that is thrown at him and should in my opinion be stripped of his title. His activities have brought further disrepute and an already dishonoured system.

        I did not realise that he was a book keeper for Touche Ross. Were they not involved in some irregularity some years ago?

              Sir Fred admits for the first time: I had an affair at RBS | News

              :
              In a fresh attempt to lift entirely an injunction protecting the identity of the woman, Richard Spearman QC had told the court the public have "an enhanced right to know" because taxpayers' money bailed out the bank in 2008.

              His gagging order was partially lifted when Lord Stoneham of Droxford used parliamentary privilege to reveal that the former RBS boss had an affair before the bank collapse.

              Today Mr Justice Tugendhat said he would allow more details of the affair to be published. But exactly what is to be permitted to be said about her job has still to be agreed by lawyers.

              Her legal team has been given 14 days' notice to challenge this order in the Court of

                Whilst it is certainly absurd - not least of which because it won't apply to Scotland - publication of the alleged bint's name would not be in the public interest. There might be some interest shewn by some members of the public, but breaching her privacy really cannot be justified.

                On the other hand, maintaining the injunction does keep a rather boring story about an adulterous *anker in the news far longer than it really ought to be.

                      Fred Goodwin, who presided over the biggest banking collapse in modern times, complained people would think badly of him if they knew he had a sexual relationship at work.

                        I think we should also remember that Lord Stoneham of Droxford was in fact Ben Stoneham who was, for a number of years, managing director of Portsmouth and Sunderland Newspaper group and is very aware of the serious and sinister issues of these super injunctions particularly the Goodwin affair and its implications.

                          Do you mean that "Sir" Fred didn't want people to call him a banker as he understood it was the rhyming slang for an onanist?
