Shocked about Kaupthing  E-mail
Wednesday, 05 August 2009 16:30
Petur Blondal parliamentarian of the independence party and one of the founders of Kaupthing says that he is shocked about the information that has been released about the loans from kaupthing. There have other shareholders been treated specially and men have taken large risks on the behalf of the nation.

This was very surprising to people and despite the bank secrecy must be more important that men have been taking risks that have caused serious problems for the nation. The justice must be guarded and it is impossible to set new regulations afterwards.

Petur does not have faith in the claims of Sigurdur Einarsson board member of Kaupthing about the loans of the bank have been well in the frame of the laws and says it is very unlikely. The lawyers have to review that as well as the special D.A. If the law have been broken has to be a follow up on the men in question are made responsible. He does not deny that there have been great violations of the law.

Hello Gary. I am sorry that you feel that I have given up but that is far from the truth. I only have 1 computer and very limited resources ... and this one computer is giving up as I have put in an announcement on the website. The charge plug seems to be loose inside the computer, and it is a delicate electric cord - dance twirl I have to do in order to *hopefully* be able to start it up .. This is a laptop. I am doing what I can, and hopefully resolve this computer problem .. I am not giving up and never will, no matter how I feel.

Best wishes to you, and thank you for following for this time!

And I should mention that I now have 3 minutes left on my battery and it will not charge, but I have not been able to get the computer to charge for almost 3 days now. Frustrating.
