Stop RBS Executive Bonuses - £500million!
« on: January 20, 2012, 03:08:26 PM »
From the Avaaz website

"In days incompetent Royal Bank of Scotland bosses want to pay themselves astronomical bonuses from our taxes! But we can stop these fat cats swallowing more cream.

Despite losing the bank £750 million in the last six months, RBS executives are spending a fortune lobbying the government and now want to get another £500m in bonuses! It’s a scandal at a time when cuts are biting all of us. But George Osborne heads up the body that will negotiate the deal. If we raise a massive public stink, the Chancellor could be shamed into rejecting RBS’s outrageous claim.

We don’t have long to stop this offensive corporate greed -- RBS executives meet on Wednesday. Let's deliver a deafening 100,000 strong petition to Osborne to force a drastic cap on RBS bonuses and ban the use of our money to lobby the government. Sign to stop the great fat-cat rip-off, and then share this with everyone."

I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left.

On the BBC news the other day it said the Govt had capped all their bonus' at £2000. I was surprised when I heard it, but thats what I heard.
