What treasury should do with banks in a crash – Prof. Steve Keen
1. Deposits should be unconditionally guaranteed. The notion that depositors are “Investing” in their bank is nonsense.
2. The shareholders and bond holders of the bank should be on the line first to back depositors. If they lose everything, then tough: they are Investing, and risks are part of the business.
3. The bank should be nationalised with no recompense to shareholders or bondholders, pending restructuring and later resale; bank staff bonuses frozen, top management sacked. There has to be pain for failure.
That this House calls on the Government to unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinian protesters along the Gaza border fence which has led to the deaths of at least 62 unarmed civilians and the injuring of thousands more, including 1,359 with gunshot injuries admitted to hospitals in a single day on Monday 14 May 2018; demands that the Government reaffirm the rights of protected persons under belligerent occupation and insist on an independent investigation into the unlawful use of live ammunition against protesters as well as outlining actions and sanctions should such an investigation not take place; asks the Foreign Office to summon the Israeli Ambassador for an explanation into the massacre and reiterate that lethal force is an option of last resort in circumstances where there is an imminent threat to life; believes that the path to peace and a two state solution is being undermined by the Israeli Government which has deliberately engineered a humanitarian crisis in Gaza through the decade-long blockade, has taken provocative action with the relocation of the US Embassy in Jerusalem, has proactively undermined a viable Palestinian State through settlement building as well as violating the 4th Geneva Convention through the use of lethal force against civilians protesting for their right to return to their homes, including a Canadian doctor who was clearly identified and journalists covering the scene; and asks the Government to follow up that strong condemnation with tangible actions to prohibit further attacks on civilian protesters.

First hour: news review: with cabinet member for Transport, Connectivity, Labour councillor for Eastville Mhairi Threlfall – also Lib Dem councillor for Central ward Mark Wright. Smart cities – Bristol now has smart sewers – smart meters – VISA payment disruption hits Europe. Pompeii’s Final Hours: the new evidence – Metrobus finally with us launched on Tuesday – cashless – Ashton Vale to City Centre and Temple Meads – guide rail is in the wrong place – lies from the council – South Bristol link road route has been dropped – Hengrove now not linked to the airport – West of England Metrobus team – First Bus have only taken on the M1, M2 and M3 Metrobus route – working with Karin Smyth MP to get the the South Bristol link route up and running – conflict of interest between First Bus’ bus and Metrobus routes. So they don’t want to run a Metrobus on routes where it will compete with their existing bus routes. Metro Mayor is against London-style bus franchising. Combined authority planning region’s transport but the wrong kind of franchising system. First Bus m-ticket app doing data mining, disastrous reviews on Google Play. Snagging issue – Use Travel West Card from i-points and bus which. Travellers in Greenbank View: Threat to Bristol’s ‘van-dwellers’ as council and police draw up enforcement policy. Interviews with neighbour Alva and Travellers David who lives in a vehicle and Sam in a canal boat. Helen Holland bins and toilets. Greenbank View is the epicentre of the Bristol housing crisis since squatting residential property. Outsiders have been causing trouble, squatting was a safety valve, they’ve taken it away. Travellers now have no political clout because they generally don’t vote. They propose several sites across the city that travellers can move around to. The problem is growing but the eviction is just moving the problem elsewhere. Anonymous Afghan refugee has been housed by St Mungo’s in Kensington House, St George but many other residents are using crack cocaine and heroin and alcohol and serous mental problems which is an extremely dangerous environment for vulnerable people.
