POLITICS - Bankers fast-tracked into teaching in 6 months

The plan is to fast-track those failed bankers who are now out of jobs into positions as maths teachers in just six months.

If they'd learned how to do their sums properly in the first place, we wouldn't be in this fucking financial shit.

Then again, I had a long chat with my bank manager last week. She said that with the economic climate as it is, henceforth she was going to focus on the big issues.

She sold me a copy outside the empty Woolworth's in town today.
