fotasmic:Frankly I have had a bellyfull of your high and mighty opinion of your fellow human beings Daniel306. The banks, the politicians , the FSA are more worthy of you venting your over-sized spleen on. I can only conclude that you belong to the ranks one of the above and given your comment your are obviously not a Tory.

The public have exercised their absolute right to withdraw their hard earned cash from a bank - who are you to sling mud at them? So kindly jump out of your pram, retrieve your dummy and go away and play with your toys somewhere.

The (very well ) established fact that you dont like seeing these people taking their money out of NR seems to indicate that you have some axe to grind. Please go and grind it somewhere else.

Stop being ignorant of the facts. The reason why the BoE is backing NR is to give the market stability. I DO NOT want anyone to lose their money at all. It's best for everyone involved that there is a stable banking industry. If people take their money out of Northern Rock and it goes under then all that does is further destabilise the industry and mean that other banks are more likely to fall over and then it'll come to the point where you won't have a chance to get your money out.

Making assumptions that I must work for a bank, the FSA or be somehow involved in politics is mud slinging in itself. Is someone not allowed to hold a view that differs to yours without somehow being involved in the "conspiracy" and being therefore inherently biased? Or are you just one of these people who can't argue a point with facts and reasoning so you need to make personal attacks on the poster themselves? Such a childish attack from yourself suggests that you're the one in the pram and the only dummy on the floor is actually yours.
