WSES

Down with NatWest, Barclays, Halifax (****ing singing bastards!) etc

The only legal "bank" should be single personal taxpayer account with HMRC, you heard it on here first...

Oi AtW, which one of the following best describes your future view of a utopian society?

1. You pay a certain amount of the money you earn to the taxman.

Funny. This hasn't really made the global news. One of Britain's largest banks compromised... and almost nothing.

Why would this be interesting to a reader/viewer on the other side of the world?

"UK bank suffers temporary computer glitch"

Not a very sexy headline.

Because the banks don't exist only in a national form. What affects one bank has the potential to affect others in other countries.

Dont RBS have business in other countries? I think they once branched out by buying other banks abroad, but then sold it...

And yes, I've put the apostrophe between 'r' and 's' deliberately.

At the end of the day it's the failure of the testers for not picking it up. Head tester was probably posting bollocks all day on the Internet and looking at images of beautiful women.
