We need an honest politician in charge who doesn't care whether they are re-elected and is prepared to make the unpopular decisions.

Quite often, people who build big businesses don't believe anyone else can run them, and you end up with an old rascal in their 70s and no one to take them on. I could name several - and I won't - who put themselves in that invidious position.

People in retail banks are not smart. They have a business model that's quite difficult to not make money out of - but still they somehow manage it.
