Sir Freds House Attacked

 According the corporate media Fred Goodwin, the ex-head of bailed out bank RBS, has had his house and car in Einburgh attacked.

 The Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2009/mar/25/sir-fred-goodwin-royalban...) writes that a group claiming responsibility had emailed threatening further action against "criminal" bankers. The Telegraph (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/5047751/...) report "Hours later, the Edinburgh Evening News received an email from an anonymous address reporting the house had been vandalised and suggesting it had been in connection with the row over Sir Fred’s £700,000 pension payout."

All reports so far report that Fred is out of the country, and that the state owned bank has been paying for his security. Reports are saying that there is now a police car outside his house to guard it.

Sky News are saying that a statement claiming responsibility said:

"We are angry that rich people, like him, are paying themselves a huge amount of money, and living in luxury, while ordinary people are made unemployed, destitute and homeless.

"This is a crime. Bank bosses should be jailed. This is just the beginning."

The report also says that the Police are claiming they arrived within three minutes.

Re: Sir Freds House Attacked

someone on the guardian webstie said that the police should treat this just like any other crime.

if by that they mean turning up 12 hours late, treating the victim like a criminal and then fucking off never to be seen again, i fully agree.

Re: Sir Freds House Attacked

Amazing the high number of police who were sent to deal with what ammounts to a pretty small bit of vandalism at his house.   If only all crimes were treated with such a high priority!

Maybe BBAC will point this out while the press are still intersested in the story.

Well done to all involved in this, those parasites who live on the backs of honest working people need to be taken down a peg or two.

Re: Sir Freds House Attacked

Apparently according to Edinburgh evening news, Police are looking at links to anti-capatalist G20 groups.!!? Lol.. yes well it's all connected, obviously no one else would be pissed of at Fat cat Bankers who've had their fill for years, no angry small business men who've went bust or people evicted from their homes would possibly dream of any kind of retalliation would they!?. violent G20 groups are obviously responsible!! How they can classify them as violent yet when G20 is still to take place is anyones guess, but they don't miss a chance to help form public opinion , and defomation against what me and you would call protesters. fuck this totallitarian state, with it's serve and protect the rich and shit on the poor attitude, no wonder people are angry. This backlash against the banks was only to be expected after their apparent greed has left so many people jobless.     

It just gets more amusing.

Found this at BoingBoing.

Re: Sir Freds House Attacked

Would just like to add my tuppence worth, well done to those who did this. I think the fact that all the media outlets have disabled the comments sections on their websites with regards this story! The support there is for these actions show that people are pissed off.

One minor quible, I wouldn't be the internet persona that I am if I didn't quible, I don't want Fred jailed.

I want him and the rest of his stinking parasitic class to work of their debt to the rest of us, whether that be by cleaning the sewers or by giving free foot massages on Buchanan street for the rest of their days.

Re: Sir Freds House Attacked

 Anybody who still doubts that this nations police force is there to protect the pyramidal structure and little else then look at the response time here

Police are there to control drunks and to protect power. The conviction of the top coppers in the holly and jessica case for having kiddie porn as well as the institutionalised racism 'revealed' by the steven lawrence case  are great reminders of how fundamentally corrupt their organisation is. 

For more ill feeling - have a look at the smug / condescending looks on the mugs of the pigs 'guarding' the council from the legitimate / needed ecap protest. They couldn't give a fuck about anyone else or wot? Recession proof job, alright innit?

CUNTS!
