Oh so old Bob is democratically accountable to the taxpayer is he? Taxpayers
have control over his actions do they?

No, because he isn't funded by the taxpayer; he is funded by the
members of the RMT, as I said. Lloyds is funded by the taxpayer.



The bosses of lloyds are accountable to their shareholders FYI which is about
as democratic as far as the rest of the country is concerned as accountability
to a union membership.

So ban private companies at the same time as banning unions.
