Good question Jon. The bankers, and their fraudulent behaviour, have been SAVED by politicians, and media organisations who feel they must tread carefully so not to excite bankers Lawyers. Our politicians MUST be scrutinised about the Conflict of Interest that exists between themselves and bankers - who fund their political parties. Our self-serving politicians are the weakness of our democracy. We need a new political system in Parliament and NEW POLITICIANS who uphold Fairness and Justice.
