Explainer: Santander grew under strict reserves regime

So you jumped the ship like a rat? Like you took the hint when your boss asked you how many years have you worked in the bank shortly before "merger".

And what did you do after that, joined some other bank?

Whatever.
At least I didn't waste 4 years (and counting) on pie in the sky

Whatever.

So you do not challenge my description of your being a rat jumping sinking ship?

I don't think I wasted these years at all. Big SKA News soon

I would worry about you not me .

You're getting dull. No one believes you any more. Everyone knows you're a head in the sand dreamer now. That's why you're distracting yourself with delusions that you're know everything.

Everyone knows you're a head in the sand dreamer now.

It does not insult me to be called a dreamer - try harder.

Dreams are good. Delusions are bad.

I don't think such situation (if it was true) would have been bad for society in any way. People are entitled to do what they deem important in their lifes so long as it does not affect others badly (ie like murder etc).

From this point of view I don't think (even if your words were true) I am causing any problems, where as if we look at your behavior we'd see that you had a hand in housing boom and bust and got out early with your dirty money. How do you feel about the people who bought your BTLs and now surely have got negative equity and in all probability will lose their houses?

It's called freedom. I know you can't quite get your head round it.
They should include it in British citizenship classes.

It's called freedom.

So you don't feel one bit guilty that poor souls that bought your houses last year will probably have their lifes ruined for many years to come?

Not in the least. That's what's called a free country. We don't treat people like children here, strange though it may seem to your Soviet sensibility.
