    Can’t say I blame them at all. Why should the general Icelandic population get stiffed if the UK and NL governments are profligate enough to bail out foolhardy investors in a dodgy bank?

    Go Iceland!

    foolhardy investors? I had most of my savings in icesave. and dodgy bank? until the crisis a bank failing was virtually unheard of.

    The Dutch have appeared to harden their position by linking the Icesave dispute to Iceland’s hopes of joining the European Union. Brussels invited Iceland to accession talks last month.
