Competition is a good thing, so the break-up of Britain’s rescued banks, announced last week, should be a positive move for the housing market. Although nothing is imminent, the disposals approved by the European commission will increase choice. Lloyds TSB-HBOS has a mortgage-market share of about 30%, so the split should be beneficial, and has been lauded by Which? and other consumer groups....

Lucy Mangan on the people in the spotlight Iron laddie David Cameron So, Dave, how went the week? Did you announce a series of strikingly brilliant policies to sort out the NHS? Innovative solutions for the economic crisis, starting with using George's pocket money to recapitalise Lloyds TSB? No? What did happen then? Nothing? Really? Are you completely sure there wasn't a little something? A little...

New banks, a breath of fresh air or more of the same? Financial news has this week been dominated by the EU-enforced break-up of Lloyds TSB and Royal Bank of Scotland, which sees these banking heavyweights having to dispose of hundreds of branches.

This is The Big One, e.g. from The Daily Hatemail, RBS and Lloyds cancel bonuses for bankers - in return for £40bn MORE of taxpayers' cash . The politicians will waffle on about "stabilising the banking system" (1) and "encouraging banks to lend to businesses" (2) and "getting value for the taxpayer" (3), of course. To their credit, they appear to have steered the...

Northern Rock was rescued in September 2007, more than a year before the much-bigger Royal Bank of Scotland, Lloyds TSB and HBOS. The mortgage bank may also be the first to wriggle out of government hands.

The Economist explains:At the height of the banking crisis, restoring financial stability was paramount for the British government. Worries about limiting the taxpayer’s exposure came second. Ensuring that banking customers continued...

Unavoidable Nationalist overtones to one side, the loss of HBOS was a bitter blow to Scotland's external reputation and its internal self esteem. The calls from some quarters that Bank of Scotland should be reinstated are silly and lack an understanding of just how integrated HBOS and Lloyds really are. Sadly, this bank is not for turning and will be slowly swallowed up by its dominant partner for...
