Bet it stays.
Doesn?t mean that it will be scrapped and it makes sense to use it until it does get scrapped.

There are always plenty of non sheep that will do that with something like that when some bank it actually stupid enough to refuse to let them withdraw what they have on deposit.

Doesn?t need anyone to stop it. If two world wars and the great depression didn?t produce it, nothing will.
We didn?t even get the unemployment rate into double digit percentages for long this time around in the countries that matter.

There were three bank branches in the shopping parade close to here. One now a restaurant, one an estate agent, one a Sainsbury Local.

The CPS is as I understand it a fairly right wing think tank (it was originally set up my Margaret Thatcher and Keith Joseph after all) but with a conservative Govt for the foreseeable future you never know if they might be listened to.

I wasn't really commenting on the story...
But it isn't really a story, is it? A random independent think-tank has issued a report making a mildly controversial suggestion.
Woo. Hold the front page.

Well in the context of the thread, (ie that some suggestions have been made that the deposit guarantee could be abolished in the near future) I was simply pointing out that these suggestions are not only being made by "a few morons who don't understand the need for it" but also by some people who have considerable lobbying capability.
