Urban Dictionary
Bwanker
A bwanker is a high level banker (mainly Irish) who has been part of the reckless lend, lend, lend culture which led mainly to the recession of 2008/9. Part of the cronie culture, the bwanker acts with the apparent blessing of his government buddies, and seems free from blame in anything he does or has done.
“Ireland has gone down the toilet! I can’t get a job, pay my mortgage, and I am eating out of the neighbour’s dustbin to survive!”
“So, who’s fault is that?”
“Awww.. you know yourself! Sure its the government and the bwankers.”

Battle of Threadneedle Street: from good-natured marches to a day of mayhem

But until the eruption in Threadneedle Street the protests had been remarkably good-natured. United by a ragbag collection of grievances, they carried banners that ranged from the extreme (“Abolish money”) to the faintly humorous (“Capitalist bwankers” and “Swindlers’ list”).
