Wow this Rev. Crackbanker story just keeps on rolling

[Classic Jorge]

They are launching an enquiry now, which isnt politically motivated in any way, into how this dishonest man was appointed to such a high office when he had such a long record of dishonesty.

Inside sources say Michael Green is a shoe in to lead it

Fine, grill him all you want about governance structures, checks and balances and why he didnt take the CE to task on things but anything else just isnt the job of the chairman.

First question: How big is the Co-op Bank, roughly? What are the total assets?

He says: About £3bn (twice, after he's given a chance to correct an obvious error)

The actual number is £46bn! FFS!

Next question: How much do you have as loans to customers?

His answer: I don't know.

The actual number is £32bn.

How can you be responsible for running a bank without knowing it's owed £32bn on its loan book? Especially when those loans are at least in part the reason you're about to go bust!

His responsibility is for running the board and corporate governance, which it would seem is also sorely lacking.

business too. Otherwise they could (and here, seemingly did) cock up massively without him acting as the safety control he's meant to be.
