Banks need to 'start serving our country'
David Hillman, a spokesman for The Robin Hood Tax campaign, had this response to Ed Miliband's proposals to reform the banking sector:
– David Hillman, Robin Hood Tax campaignEd Miliband is right to call on banks to start serving our country, for too long it has been the other way around. But he is only halfway towards a comprehensive solution. Yes we should crack down on banks' predatory behaviour, but we need to do more. We need a fair deal for taxpayers from a sector whose vast profits and pay are effectively underwritten by the public purse.
