[quote:arkay:MV8xOTIyNTkzXzMyMTg2MDc3X0ZEREJFQjA0] And the following is their explaination of the who and the what of all this. [i][b]Posted: 10 July 2012 Big banks have been caught in a massive scam to rig global interest rates, ripping off millions of people on their mortgages, student loans and more! We'd go to jail for this, but Barclays bank has only been fined, and just a fraction of their profits! Outrage is mounting -- this is our chance to finally turn the tide of the banks' reign over our democracies. The EU finance regulator, Michel Barnier is standing up to the powerful bank lobby and championing reform that would put bankers behind bars for fraud like this. If the EU goes first, accountability could quickly spread across the globe. But the banks are lobbying hard against it, and we need a massive surge of people power to drive these reforms through. If we can get 1 million people to stand with Barnier in the next 3 days, it will give him momentum to face down the banking lobby and push governments to bring reform. Sign the petition, and our growing numbers will be represented by adding mock bankers to a jail right in front of the EU Parliament.[/b][/i] Heres their link again... http://www.avaaz.org/en/bankers_behind_bars_f/?bYYFmcb&v=15945 please pin for front page.

Hi Folks.
We are all pretty much aware of the Global Financial Crisis that has destroyed so many lives over the last few years.
Its recently been reported that many of the major banks from around the world have been illegally manipulating interest rates among other fradulent activities.
E.G. Barklays to name just one.
There is now an big push to have laws changed that would see top executives put behind bars for any participation in these types of activities.
The link below will take you to an organization that is leading the push to make the EU bring about these law cahnges.
Please follow the link and sign their petition, that is all they are asking.
Many thanks for your help.
