Doesn't surprise me in the least, we have the same stuff going on here in the USA. Plus the money these banks are loaning doesn't even exist and is created by the use of double entry bookkeeping.
The they have the nerve to charge interest on top if to boot. Any country that has a central bank is in on this so it shouldn't come as any surprise if the media would actually do their job and report things instead of turning a blind eye or just flat out hiding the facts that they know.
