Rest of message.....
This is a great chance to shake up the banking sector. George Osborne and his allies are keen
to sell-off RBS as soon as possible. But it's big banks like RBS which got us into our current
economic crisis. Selling them off and returning to business as usual could lose us money and
miss a great opportunity to change the way our economy works for the better.
The Banking Commission has told Osborne to look at all the different options, from public ownership
right through to breaking it up into smaller local banks. If RBS is flogged off before the other options
are properly investigated, George Osborne could waste a huge opportunity for the UK.
Osborne would love to spin this announcement as good news. There's even talk of bribing people
with a one-off payment from the sale of the bank. [3] We can make sure he knows the plans will be
controversial and he'll face strong opposition.
The announcement is likely to come tonight. Sign the petition now:
