Irish Nationwide

Irish Nationwide is one of those Irish financial institutions bailed out by the Government's guarantee . The Chief Executive is Michael Fingleton , known to his buddies in the corporate bull-pen by the familiar nick-name of 'Fingers' .
Before the € 400 bil. bailout had even become law the son of Michael Fingleton , Michael Fingleton Jr. ( let's call him 'baby'-Fingers ) , was on the internet in a flash touting for business for daddy's ailing institution usuing our Taxpayers guarantee to tell his connections to move their money our of their British banks ( not covered by bailout ) to Irish Nationwide .
When this scam became public knowledge 'daddy's bank ' released an apology....saying that the e-mail 'baby' Fingers sent was.........INAPPROPRIATE......on RTE radio's Pat Kenny Show , Gillian Bowler ( who I respect ), happens to be head of Irish Permanent-TSB , when asked for her comments on the Irish Nationwide incident said it was .....INAPPROPRIATE
Our Financial Regulator in a newspaper interview and on TV said that the Irish Nationwide e-mail was .......INAPPROPRIATE......

Cometh' the time cometh ' the word......
