backfoot: Daniel306: If respectable people who are the "fabric" of this country cause the collapse of a financial institution for no good reason then they are being stupid and idiotic. Just because someone fought in WW2 or they're just plain old is no reason to let them off for sheep-like behaviour which only causes problems. The BoE, the FSA and the chancellor have all stated that NR is still solvent. What more do you need?
The WW2 was well before my time but your tone towards those that were and elderly people is really offensive.
Each person took their own decision.I took mine straight away on Friday morning as the news broke and I used the internet.I did not follow any sheep like behaviour.People queued because that was all they could do once they wanted to withdraw.
Daniel you can say what you what you like on the internet with relative impunity. It seems like you have now just turned to troll like comments.Perhaps you have a high degree of jealousy of those people who had worked hard to save for their retirements and were just doing what was right for them at the time.
Your naivety and immaturity speaks volumes.
Sod it. I give up.
Just for the record the government are lying, the BoE is backing an insolvent company so that tax payers will have to foot the bill, I'm a Tory, I hope people lose their hard earned savings, sheep-like behaviour resulting in the downfall of a respectable company is good and I'm a troll.
I apologise for this backfoot and hope you have a good day.
