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."
