See Champagne and Caviar Socialist DSK in Cuffs

A picture is available from Mary Ellen Synon's latest blog, linked here, as the man who went from a $3,000 a night luxury suite to be whipped from sipping champagne in his first class seat on an Air France flight to Paris, to a night in the cells of a Harlem police facility, is paraded before the faces of his austerity doomed victims, which this very day at Ecofin he was planning to push ever more surely into the dirt for absolutely no purpose whatsoever.

In the US when the chains are finally applied to those found guilty, they sometimes take what is called the Perp ( for perpetrator's) Walk. This blog has no view on the charges on which the Head of the IMF is now being held, on the other hand we have plenty of views on his past policies and  poltical career, we are thus thoroughly enjoying the unfolding events.

Hopefully a video clip of the scene pictured will be on all the world's news channels this evening and soon thereafter on YouTube and therefore, right here, shortly after! Here is one from AFP
