Sir, – The so-called promissory note “deal” has a lot in common with the so-called horseburger scandal.
People don’t know what they are getting, they don’t know where it is from, they don’t know who gave it to them and they will no doubt soon feel ill but won’t know why.
Also the future DNA of this Anglo bank “deal” is liable to change, just as there are new rumours on recent tests on hamburgers that some were found to contain 50 per cent horse and 50 per cent jockey. Looks like this story is going to run and run. – Yours, etc,
