A small number of individuals could make or break you with a single decision in a meeting room, bar, private members' club or restaurant table in the UK's capital city. Here we list the business people and public servants who have the nation in the palm of their hands.

Rebel, I urge you all to rebel and clear all this rot and scum away. Guy Fawkes was right, we all know the history, we are living the result of not destroying politics and greed. Some reading this will disagree no doubt, but ask what people feel the UK has become and most will say bankrupt. These people are liars and cheats and even when they get found out there are no consequences for them.
Rebel before the mining of asteroids for metal and minerals makes everything on earth worthless. lol.

Shut your yap.
It is about time us folks did get rid of this bunch of jerks and not just by voting them out either. You can interpret that as you will.
We've been ripped off right left and bloody centre by these corrupt scumbags and Cameron and co are the worst along with their banker mates in the City, they cause the crap and we have to pay for it, enough is enough.
It's twerps like you who are not prepared to do anything other than criticise those of us who want real change, you are probably a bloody tory so crawl back under the stone you came from.
They can afford to spend £16,000 on plants for Osbourne's office, they are spending god knows how much on wars and bombing countries here and there, they are giving millions away to other countries yet they are screwing us every which way and say we're all in this together. What a joke, Cameron and Osbourne and most of this government are millionaires and understand nothing of struggle like the majority of us do. A revolution is long long overdue in this country, these idiots need a good hard lesson on how not to screw their own people, it's time for them to leave and never return.

To all you Tory lovers who are in denial about what this government is really doing WAKE UP!!
This government is not in control, they are only the puppets to the real power who are running the show, the corrupt bankers and corporate scum who care nothing for the citizens of this country. They only care about themselves and how much they can screw us. It's all about control and keeping us down, well some of us can see the reality of how things really are, those of you who are in denial will come to realise just what is really going on.

The idea that wealth "created" in London finds it's way to the rest of the country is utterly ludicrous. The weath of the UK, really created elsewhere, vanishes into this bottomless pit populated by parasites of every sort, form and description. If the banks were nationalised and the City told to take a hike/closed down, this country would really thrive. This country is awash with talent and enterprise, as any perusal of engineering and design journals shows, unfortunately all this talent is hobbled by the metaphorical (but very real), leg irons and manacles imposed by the City and the banks.

Who do you think your kidding MSN!!?? The people who control our money? The people who you present as controlling our money, are nothing but very well paid puppets of those who really are in control, and they stay out of view from the rest of us.
Consider this: In 1945, the then Labour government, nationalised the Bank of England (who lend money to the government and charge interest on that loan.) That's a little strange, considering the government effectively owns it on our behalf. Well, the government may have nationalised it , but they don't have ANY control over it - THE BANK OF ENGLAND, IS A PRIVATELY OWNED/RUN BUSINESS!! It has a board and shareholders, and unlike the vast majority of private companies, you are not allowed to find out who the shareholders are - this is law, check it out for yourself if you have any doubts above this.
IT'S ALL A BIG BLOODY CON,and has now got to the point where you either screw the system, or the system screws you (which it's been doing for quite some time now.)

WE the British... our language is all over this planet!
WE rule!
James Todd, Why the 'royal we'? The people of this Isle do not benefit from the mischievous money makers of the City of London, in fact we suffer them, for it is they who have bankrupted the nation and placed us firmly in the shackles of debt and use our country and people to perform their filthy trade and exert their influence all over the world.
Mike Muse was absolutely spot on with his post on the subject.
Read the 'timeline of the Rothschilds' to see what the reality of money is.
