Romanian Immigrants Share Fred Goodwin's Fortune

What do Sir Fred Goodwin (the former boss of Royal Bank of Scotland, if there's anyone on this planet who still doesn't know who he is) and Romanian immigrants have in common?


Both had their homes' windows smashed in the UK. But while Sir Fred now lives in a plush home somewhere in France, recovering from the stress, the Romanian immigrants were forced to flee their houses in Belfast for fear the attacks will be repeated.


The thugs who did this obviously have no jobs to worry about and not a lot of brain, so they did not stop to think that these immigrants, too, are paying taxes.


Of course, it's not their fault these taxes go to plugging up holes in banks' balance sheets instead of going towards creating British jobs – for British people responsible enough not to throw stones.
