THEFATBASTARD Posted 4 July 2012 Posted 4 July 2012 How has this guy got to run anything? This clown has trousered 100 million quid..and is in line for another 30 mill payoff...at the committee he either avoided or "misunderstood" almost all questions.... a master of dissembling....half the members of the commitee are ex bank board members or current board members or employees...great,..no vested interests then...diamond ain't got control over his own teeth so how could he control a major bank? shockingly bad performance.. NOT ME GOV..I WAS ONLY IN CHARGE..
Parafox Posted 4 July 2012 Posted 4 July 2012 30 million payoff... And people moan about public sector pensions... He must've had some credentials to get to the top of a major bank like Barclays. Or did he lie, cheat, decieve, shag his way to the top? Can't imagine it being the latter, although power is an aphrodisiac

What pointless comparison.
James. Posted 4 July 2012 Posted 4 July 2012 It's a shame they have a panel consisting partly of politicians wanting to make a name for themselves as opposed to experts who know what questions to ask. Diamond is there for the taking - looks tired, unprepared and often plain confused. The chairman is good and others have had their moments but some just look like they're trying to grab the headlines as opposed to properly delve into what went wrong.

Daggers Posted 4 July 2012 Posted 4 July 2012 A few hundred top bankers Vs tens of million of public sector pensions. What pointless comparison. Unusual for a Tory to be defending corrupt bankers...
Saxondale Posted 4 July 2012 Posted 4 July 2012 He had a reputation inside the bank (I'd know, I used to work for them) as being a ruthless and devastatingly effective money maker. He was previously head of the trading side of the bank and, presumably, knew this side of things inside out.
