The top executive directors of the eight banks that could take part in the Government's rescue plan were paid £72m between them last year. That's nearly £2m each. Many of them earned far, far more but this is the average. Over the same year, shareholders in most of those banks – namely Royal Bank of Scotland, HBOS and Barclays – have lost their shirts. And let us not forget, the shareholders who invested in Bradford & Bingley and Northern Rock, who have been wiped out by this banking calamity. In those cases, the chiefs left, albeit with big pay-offs.

The city comptroller's office expects 165,000 private sector jobs in the city to be lost because of the Wall Street downturn, nearly twice as many as predicted by the city in July. Here's the statement from City Comptroller Bill Thompson (who may or may not still be a mayoral candidate): Our current forecast anticipates that as many as 165,000 private-sector jobs will be lost throughout the city’s economy over the next 24 months, which compares to a forecast of 85,000 jobs lost in the Comptroller’s most recent budget report, issued in July. We now believe that as many as 35,000 of those job losses may come in the financial services industry; our previous forecast was that the industry would contract by 25,000 jobs. The differences reflect the spreading of the economic troubles to other industry sectors as the nation slips into a general recession.
