ITV1: Excess in the City: Bonus Bonanza

As the City of London prepares to pay an incredible 19 billion pounds in annual bonuses to City staff,
this programme reveals the lavish lifestyles of some of the traders and bankers who are part of the pay bonanza,
showing how they've earned the money and how they're spending it.
The programmes also explores how the payment of such bonuses affects the rest of us,

Banks make money by creating money. High banking profits are what you'd expect to happen before a massive rise in inflation.

Some idiot posted a comment on the telegraph on Saturday alleging that the increase in funding for the NHS was to blame for HPI. I wonder what his opinion would be on this article
