Letters / They hold our funds
Craig Johnson, You mention “Hold on….I’m one of those idiots.” (Hold on, I’m one 7 May 2012)
I hope you’re not, but if you wish to leave your funds in cowboy banks, your choice. I used to hold my own funds in Lloyds, soon closed that account and shifted funds to other banks.
It’s your choice where you hold your funds! However, the trustees of Shetland Charitable Trust hold our funds, not their own… Literally millions and millions of pounds of Shetlanders’ funds may be put at risk by jumping into bed with SSE and Viking Energy. A stupid speculative gamble, just that, no more!
Now, just how do the millions of speculative profits look after Ofgem’s latest ruling? What will happen if ROC subsides are also cut again? O dear, talk about a pig in a poke!
