Lately......they did, but people forget that they were the first to go to the government for a hand-out, long before Northern Rock was even mentioned. They went cap-in hand, which was dwarfed in the news by the 'run' on NR, resulting in them running cap in hand as well.
The Barclays' story dropped off into oblivion.

Itwas on the BBC so search should show it up, like I said a little before the NR fiasco took hold of the media. They may well have paid it back, dunno, but it was they, not NR that started going cap in hand.

Think you must have them confused with someone else...There is nothing i can find that mentions this ever happening.
