Inglourious banking basterds

HSBC makes £3 billion-plus profit! Still not doing enough to boost lending! Uncooperative bastards!

Barclays makes £3 billion-plus profit! Starts paying big bonuses again! Arrogant bastards!

Northern Rock loses £700 million! Too many bad loans! Useless bastards!

Lloyds loses £4 billion! Fooled into taking over loss-making HBOS! Naive bastards!

Word up to Alastair, George, Vince and most of the media: if any one of you has a coherent sentence to utter about what you think the banks should be doing, please feel free to utter it now. Otherwise, it might be better to just, you know, SHUT IT.
