How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

Well done Michael Howard !!. Shame he didn't also mention the run on Northern Rock which was instigated by a leak to Robert Peston. This will however thankfully be aired for full public scrutiny in court in January.Comment

So has Peston broken the law? Could he do time for this? What about the BBC and its board?I am not qualified to give the above advice!

Not sure whether he has broken the law, but by virtue of causing a run on Northern Rock, he, HMG and the BBC have cost Rock shareholders, their staff and homeowners a lot of money.Comment

I preferred Evan as he always made his reports interesting to listen too he made an effort in wrapping up the story in a neat analogy you me and the family pets could understand. He will always be remembered in my mind for "Good luck with that."
Robert Peston gets up my snout however. His favourite phrase "Now lets be clear"
Every-time he's on the news he says it. Sounds so patronising. Not to mentioned the format of his reports are appalling. Nothing constructive about them.
