[sevenOP]

How much did UK govt spend bailing out banks after 2007?

What other institutions did they bailout?

How much of bailouts have been recouped by UK govt?

The bank Bail outs were in the form of buying shares. I don't know the figure but it'll be googlable. It was done to stop a banking crash that would have destroyed our economy and not because Darling felt sorry for the bankers

I don't know how reliable this Wikipedia page is. Lloyds and RBS took most or all of the bailout money (ie the government bought a majority stake in these banks)- the others all declined

Sorry for the incomplete answers-i was doing something else at the same time. My first answer was not much use since I assumed (probably incorrectly) that you were thinking of the RBS shares as that was in the news today, but if you meant more widely then the Wikipedia link will tell you about the short term loans and other support. The UK wasn't alone in this although Brown and Darling were probably quickest off the mark and saved the day- but the US and other major economies also had to act in a similar way

Thanks for trying fiction-factory... and no it was not because of RBS scandal that I was asking.

We can mark that down as more hidden information from Public scrutiny.
