If sacked City workers kidnap the bosses who sacked them they'll demand ransoms of £20m, not the £200k demanded by sacked EAs.

Call my cynical, but I believe a person with officially-recognised mental health issues is classed as 'disabled' and therefore becomes a lot harder to fire. Talk about a great way to protect your city job!

Stay away from the square mile unless you find it absolutely necessary. If you ever go there, always watch above you head

Yeah, so when they lose their job, they can claim dissabilty which is a lot better than 40 quid a week.
