Followed by an announcement of 1,000 jobs lost in the City of London yesterday, with another 20,000 to go within the next 6 months, Places like Dresdner, and Deutsche bank and others in the Merchant banking industry being hit very hard.

not good reading,sorry for the people concerned..:thumbdown::thumbdown:
