Who on earth does Callum McCarthy think he is, calling an elected Member of Parliament telling him what he should or shouldn't say? Thank god he's standing down soon as FSA chairman later this year, no doubt to some agreeable post in the city.

He is nothing more than a loathesome spotted reptile. A slimey amphibian scrotum. He is unquestionably the most patronising, tedious, boring, uninteresting, flatulent, flat-headed, cloth-eared, swivel-eyed, fornicating little gits I've ever laid my eyes on.

& I hope Vince Cable crucifies him for lying to the press - the little toady
