Shit British bank names

Today, we continued to hear the revelation of news of banks’ struggles. Wachovia fell to Citigroup, while the Benelux bank Fortis received a £9bn cash injection from the countries’ taxpayers. And the Bradford & Bingley (originally mis-typed Bungley) was nationalised.

I have to say, Bradford & Bingley is a bit of a rubbish name for a bank, especially compared to the likes of Fortis and Wachovia.
