OK, not really news, but the news that following the Bank of England’s surprise 150 basis point (1.5%) rate cut, banks have continued to increase the interest rates of credit cards.

There is some relief in discovering that it’s not just US bankers. Still, how about taking a few hundred, sending them to Gitmo, and keeping them in solitary until the courts rule, because they are doing more damage to the economy than Osama bin Laden could even imagine.
