"Mr President, the fat cats of the American banking industry, together with the corresponding fat cats of Europe, have for the last few years embarked on an orgy of fraud, embezzlement and corruption at the expense of ordinary people. Yet those authorities such as the central banks, finance ministers and EU Commissioners, whose duty was to protect the citizens, have in essence done nothing to stop them.
After their conspiracy of silence, negligence and cover-up, these authorities now have the nerve to commit taxpayers’ money so that the same fat cats can get even richer. This is outrageous, scandalous and shameful. This is not justice. Those to blame for the current global economic catastrophe and those who offered them a cover-up should have their assets seized and should be sent to prison. This is true justice and this is the type of justice that the EU should be about. This is the bald truth about what EU citizens think."@en1
