Dempsey is getting praised for putting our current plight squarely on the shoulders of our rouge bankers...
unsuprisingly no mention of the failure of our Govenor of the Central Bank to have sufficient powers to do anything bar issue quarterly reports (which he did) warning of impending problems, our Financial Regulator simply did nothing despite having powers to take the banks to task, while the Director of Corporate Affairs Paul Appelby's requests as far back as 2005 for additional staff were being rejected.
One thing the government is actually doing well is maintaining this agenda to put the nation's economic plight at the bankers doorstep while ignoring the failures of the state created/appointed bodies who were supposedly created to prevent any such banking crisis from occuring.
