Myners...

A better joke from yesterday was the evidence of Lord Myners to the Commons Treasury committee regarding Fred the Shred's pension. Myners first said "I sought no information" about the "enormous" pension and went on to complain that he was "not told the full story" by the "distinguished" RBS board. He then apologised for calling the board "distinguished", redescribing it as "experienced". He refused to answer Andrew Tyrie's question about his own pension arrangements. It will be interesting to see how Cherie Blair will fare in the lawsuit against RBS' board.
