Pigs to the trough again

So we now see the leaders of the free world zipping around trying to talk our representatives into giving away our money. The image of the pigs whose snouts were in the trough for years coming to us for a refill when they hit bad times is sickening.

What do they actually need to do to be held to account?

What about making them personally responsible and ultimately answerable in a court so as to focus a few minds? Would it not be nice if a shareholder or ex-employee laid off could ask someone to consider making the chief executive and his underlings pay them compensation from their golden goodbyes?

Dream on – New Labour aka Old Tory Brown will make sure they are compensated for their greed and incompetence.

Same old same!
