Northern Rock staff awarded 10% bonus
Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away. -
Why shouldnt they get a bonus for working hard? Its not like the staff have ****ed up over the banking crisis.I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

It makes sense to give them a bonus to reduce the mortgage book by 14 Billion pounds to pay off a government loan.
It makes even more sense for HMG to give them another 10 Billion loan to start handing out mortgages again !!
