A couple of weeks ago Barclays brought shares in Merrill Lynch and saved the American investment house from turning belly up. I would assume Barclays cash flow is healthy. Here in the states to they jeered an AIG junket where executives spent close to a half million dollars. Commoners enjoy reading about the abusive behavior of the rich, it makes sparkling ink.

Barclays is one of the safer,better run banks in the world at the moment.
