Now, finally, <B>Bob Diamond and Barclays have crossed a line </B>- and David Cameron is under huge pressure<B></B>to fix the banks. [1]<BR><BR><B>This latest scandal could be our best chance in a long time to get real change.</B> But what do we want to be different,
and how can we make our campaign as powerful as possible?<BR><BR>Now’s the time to get together and find the best ideas from 38 Degrees members.<B>Can you help decide what we should do together next to take on the bankers?</B><BR><BR><B>Take the quick survey now:<BR><A title=https://secure.38degrees.org.uk/fix-banking href="http://www.38degrees.org.uk/page/m/74c05402/2d40752f/5c0ba2b0/467077f4/2515468267/VEsE/" rel=nofollow target=_blank>http://www.38degrees.org.uk/page/m/74c05402/2d40752f/5c0ba2b0/467077f4/2515468267/VEsE/</A></B><BR><BR>Lots of us are feeling angry and upset about the way that Britain’s bankers have taken us all for a ride. But this week, they’ve had a wake-up call. Bob Diamond and Barclays bankers went too far - and<B>there will be a parliamentary inquiry to try and get to the truth. </B>[2]<BR><BR>It’s not clear yet exactly how the inquiry will work. But one thing is certain - millions of people in this country are sick and
tired of bankers’ huge bonuses and their culture of irresponsibility.<BR><BR><B>38 Degrees members are already coming up with ideas for what we should do next.</B> Should we all move our bank accounts away from the most irresponsible banks? Should we push for jail sentences for bankers who are found to have committed fraud?<BR><BR><B>Help decide what to do next:<BR><A title=https://secure.38degrees.org.uk/fix-banking href="http://www.38degrees.org.uk/page/m/74c05402/2d40752f/5c0ba2b0/467077f4/2515468267/VEsF/" rel=nofollow target=_blank>http://www.38degrees.org.uk/page/m/74c05402/2d40752f/5c0ba2b0/467077f4/2515468267/VEsF/</A></B><BR><BR>If we put our heads together now, we can come up with some great ideas about how people power can start to take on the banks.

nothing we can’t try together</B>. And we’ve shown we can win big before - just ask Rupert Murdoch.
