Anger at 'bust bank' boss bonuses

Pressure is mounting in the UK on disgraced former HBOS bosses amid anger over mammoth pension pots and nearly £1m of “bonuses for going bust”.

Seven directors of HBOS landed £914,000 in “change of control” payments triggered by the bank’s rescue takeover by Lloyds Banking Group following its £20.5 billion taxpayer bailout in 2008.
