What David Cameron used to say about bankers and bonuses

By | Thu 23rd February 2012 - 6:50 am

As ever, it’s three things to remember:

  1. “What you won’t hear from me is easy cheap lines bashing financiers” (Evening Standard, 28 September 2008),
  2. He also thought such talk was a “lurch to the left” (PMQs, House of Commons, 21 February 2007, on calls for curbs to city bonuses),
  3. And he said criticising bonuses is “Not sensible, not sensible at all” (Sky News, 26th September 2008).
