A year ago this week Iceland's economy collapsed along with three of its biggest banks. Since then the country has been struggling to recover and there is still a long way to go. . .

. . . Icelanders are still very angry about the situation.

They blame everyone from Britain and its Prime Minister Gordon Brown, to the EU to the big Icelandic investors - sarcastically referred to as the "Vikings" - whose antics abroad are considered to be a big catalyst in Iceland's downfall.. .

Although there are people who believe Icelandic taxpayers should not be footing the bill for the collapse of a private bank, more are saying that Iceland needs to meet its obligations.  09-Oct-09.
