Show #51, July 24, 2009

This week on The Revolution...'Banks Behaving Badly'. Greens co-leader Russel Norman joins us to talk about the Opposition's inquiry into exorbitant short term interests rate charges. Why is National backing away from oversight of the banking sector? Is Jon Key using his banking expertise for the good of the nation or to help out his buddies? Will working NZers finally get mad as hell over their strangulation at the hands of the financial sector?
