Pub Curmudgeon has written up the results to last week's Fun Online Poll here.

If anybody has a bright idea for this week's Fun Online Poll, please leave a suggestion in the comments.

Herewith suggestion. Bank regulators were supposed to get rid of the Too Big to Fail subsidy that banks get. But according to Andrew Haldane of the Bank of England, the Too Big to Fail problem is worse than ever. See:

So, do you think bank regulators and members of bodies like the Vickers Commission which were supposed to sort this out should be:

1. Hung drawn and quartered.
2. Given a lethal injection.
3. Stripped of their pensions.
4. Stripped of their gongs.
5. Made to repay cash in brown envelopes they’ve received from banks.

Or you could have: What do you think will happen to the regulators and members of bodies like the Vickers Commission which were supposed to sort this out, but didn't:

1. They all get gongs
2. They get to sit on the next Commission, for even more money
3. They go through the revolving door into a well-paid job with one of the banks
4. All of the above
5. Nothing

RM, good idea, but you can get into trouble for that - there are Homeys who follow me round the internet and threaten to report me if I ever speak out of turn.

B, that's easy, it's 4.
