I'm keeping EVERY penny! You knew all about my £693,000 a year pension deal, 
Sir Fred tells Labour

Goodwin refuses to budge over £17m pension pot
RBS receives second state bailout after £24.1bn annual loss, while former 
chief claims that Government approved his pension

Sir Fred Goodwin, the vilified former chief executive of Royal Bank of 
Scotland, refused last night to surrender his £693,000-a-year pension, 
claiming that the Government had approved it.

He put himself on a collision course with the Treasury on a day when RBS 
announced a £24.1 billion annual loss and received a second state bailout.

Sir Fred publicly spurned a personal plea from Lord Myners, the City 
Minister, and public demands from Alistair Darling and Gordon Brown, to give 
up some of his pension pot. It doubled to £16.9 million last October when he 
agreed to take early retirement.

Furious that the details of his pension arrangements and his conversation 
with Lord Myners had been made public, Sir Fred retorted in a letter that 
the minister had been aware of the deal and had twice sanctioned it 
personally.
