Hamish Macdonell - You can bank on it

THERE is always somebody who says 'I told you so', whatever the situation and today's latest bail-out of the banks has allowed the left-wingers of Solidarity to ride in, claiming they always wanted to see the banks nationalised.
Tommy Sheridan's supporters (in his self-enforced absence) don't quite go as far as praising Gordon Brown for following their policies of nationalising the banks but they come close to it.
They use today's latest gloomy economic news to call what they really want "genuine people's banks", which would lead to the nationalisation of almost everything else, including, crucially, the means of production.
I guess that's the true sign of a revolutionary, take change in your direction any way you can get it.
