Sir Fred Goodwin and Jackie Stewart jet off for a £25k shooting trip | Mail Online: "Sir Fred, known as 'Fred the Shred' for his cost-cutting at RBS, brought in tax exile Sir Jackie to promote the bank overseas. The driver still works for the bank that is owned by the taxpayer after a £20billion bail out.
The pair - and their Beretta shotguns - were met at Madrid airport by a limousine sent by Santander boss Emilio Botin, according to the Sunday Mirror.
Mr Botin helped fund the £49billion RBS takeover of Dutch bank ABN Amro in 2007, a deal that was blamed for the near collapse of RBS in the financial crisis of 2008.
After a night in a five-star hotel in Madrid on Tuesday, they were taken to the La Flamenca country estate - which boasts the best partridge shooting in Spain.
Sir Fred Sir Jackie, Mr Botin and five others enjoyed a morning of shooting in which they are said to have killed around 1,000 birds."
