"We came out of it rather well as we had an economist at the helm, hence we returned a profit on our stake in the banks."

Gordon Brown was the arrogant money-grubber who stole vast amounts of money from private pensions and pissed it away like every other Labour chancellor. Or have you forgotten how his "one-off, never to be repeated" smash-and-grab on our money became a feature of every one of his budgets? I didn't pay into MY pension for him to steal it to cover the deficit in the state pension scheme - which, lest you forget, still cannot give the people who have paid into it a decent living.

And the only reason "our" stake in the banks returned a profit is because he fixed the rules so it would be impossible not to.
