An item on Spanish news today:
"Ex IMF boss Rodrigo Rato and sixty-four of his colleagues (yes you read that correctly, 64) are to go on trial in Madrid for conducting a credit card racket "unconnected with their duties as IMF and Bankia Board Members". About €12,000,000 was spent on hotels, fine clothes, entertainment and travel. The Bankia Bank collapsed in 2012 inflicting losses on over 200,000 investors.
Rodrigo Rato was also the Spanish Minister of the Economy and senior member of the Party Popular, which under the hapless Acting Prime Minister has been unable to form a government since December 2015.
NB:
After Rodrigo Rato left the IMF it was headed by Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who resigned in 2011 to defend himself from rape charges, and further charges in 2015 of pimping.
The next head of the IMF was Christine Lagarde who is to go on trail in December this year over charges of misconduct in making a state award of €285,000,000 to Bernard Tapie when she was French Finance Minister.
Yes folks, your financial future, grants to the PIGS, and predictions for the UK's financial future after Brexit are in firm hands.
