Leaving aside all this hype about a "shareholders revolt" does anyone really think that what happened at the AGM (27th April 2012) will make one iota of difference to the way that Barclays is run? It would require a revolt by the major shareholders en masse, to have any real effect. But, of course, this is not going to happen, because the major shareholders are themselves,other banks and financial institutions who, when the time comes and they have awarded themselves obscene levels of bonuses and benefits they will not risk Barclays or anyone else staging a revolt at their AGM's.It is an obscene, corrupt self interested club, endorsed and supported by governments and the establishment, on the pretext of providing benefit to the economy. The veneer of respectability has always been a bit thin, but now threadbare patches and holes are exposing the true vision of filthiness of their system.
