1261609 2012-02-27 00:18:00 Of course it should be stripped from him. And there is a recent precedent: www.huffingtonpost.com johcar (6283)
1261610 2012-02-27 00:56:00 Poor comparison John. Douglas Graham wasn't knighted for his service to banking or the finance industry. Therefore no precedent exists.

"Goodwin had been awarded the knighthood in 2004 for services to banking,"

Doesn't make any bloody difference Richard ... he used his "good" reputation to gain the trust of people who invested in that company ... just because he's a "Sir" shouldn't affect the sentence he gets ... should be locked up and stripped of everything.

You can bet your last dollar that he's got a nice little off-shore account with enough to keep him and his whanau in the lap of luxury once he gets a slap across the back of his hand with a wet ... make that damp ... bus ticket.

That of course is the point, they are rich at others expense, that is the way of the con man, no regard at all for his victims.

1261613 2012-02-27 07:00:00 Well, I don't think he should go to prison because that will cost us all. What should happen is a hefty fine + community service. The community service should be disgusting and humiliating. Like shoveling liquefaction in pensioners' sections in ChCh, followed by emptying and cleaning Port-A-Loos - without gloves. And he should be made to wear his best suit while doing it. TideMan (4279)
