Most banks are trading as normal(i.e. raking in taxpayer money). Today most European markets are open so there will be a few around today. -
Wilmslow: Why do offices open on Christmas eve? I mean, what is the point??
The point is to do the work we are paid to do. How many bank holidays do you want for Christmas?
More and more people seem to think that work ramps down from early December. That doesn't help the nation's productivity, and with our rising deficit, we need all the productivity we can get.Comment
