(Darling): "Okay, here's £117M in consulting fees for you and your mates"
...sometime later..
(Banker): "Okay, I have the solution, use taxpayer's money. They should pay for it, those gutter rats"

I wonder what hourly rate per person that translates into. Compare with scientists' pay (re current climate furore) who are generally more highly qualified. If this isn't corruption of the system I don't know what is. One can foresee riots given a suitable catalyst.
