David Drumm: ‘There is a witch hunt ... I convince myself that this will pass’

typical banker attitude lie to everyone thinkin we r all stupid the game is up drumm n his cohorts in other banks an irish govt in past centuries would have been jailed or hanged by now in the modern era we jail these people in real democracies why is he even walkin g the streets fine gael were voted in to change things they could be out of office quicker than they think when the revolution takes hold ireland needs a new party with people with business experience not these idiots that have worked for govt all their life an sucked the life out of ireland an its people

never any talk of iceland,i wonder why?maybe its because iceland is well on its way to recovery because they burned the bankers,the whole banking system is desighned to entrap everyone in dept to them,the bankers should be burned,it is them that create depressions,creating money out of thin air,bank should never run the people,the people should run the banks,total greed does lead to total corruption,even yellow belly politicans are nothing more than solicitors for the banks,thats any politican succesfull/corrupted to the core

@ Captain Con, so true, so true.

A witch?? no such thing as a witch. Is he seeing things?

David has just signed his own death warrant. BTW John Hurley was the governor of the Central Bank and not John Carney. Who is John Carney?

Another Master of the Financial Universe photographed in the fraudulent years as if he was 'the talent' and the brains of the operation only to find that after all his years of being paid and bonused as if he was irreplaceable we are now asked to believe he was the real victim and had responsibility for nothing. Like most of them they are mere clerks high on bullshit and low on any talent beyond appearances. It is the same with Kevin Cardiff- mere well fed frauds ringed about by lawyers.

Yeah and he is the witch hope he goes down never to surface again

Typical banker. Lie and keep lying until the problem goes away. The only reason Anglo was 'envied' by other banks was in its joined at the hip connections to the rotten corrupt political establishment in Ireland who were in receipt of loosely paperworked 'free money' from Anglo. It is now coming up to four years since that bank was found to be dead in the water and still the Irish authorities are trying to find, like Drumm, a way to create an alternative reality that results in no charges being identified. The Maple 10 transaction was market abuse under EU market abuse directives. You can see Drumm's level of integrity in the pack of lies he attempted to foist on Massachusetts authorities during his bankruptcy hearings.
