'Three beaming eurocrats – Barroso, Van Rompuy and
Lithuanian Dalia Grybauskaite – emerged triumphant from a session two days ago,
in which they mapped out the biggest bank heist in world history. This is to put
flesh on the eurozone law hastily passed on August 1st (while EU citizens were
on holiday) to deal with the inevitability
event of a bank collapse. Under this draft proposal – which many expect to be
applied to the entire EU – no depositor big or small will in future be able to
feel safe with money deposited in a bank.'
