It will make no difference to them, they will just hike the price of oil up. Somebody should have been jailed and not just a scapegoat.

Youv'e got that right Phil until the powers that be start going to jail, these characters will always squander shareholders and public money.

In theory you are right SB, but they would always somehow persuade (monetarily possibly) the authorities that a more junior person was responsible, which technically he possibly was, but only because of the pressure put on him by his bosses.

In theory that's correct I think Mike. Nut if the head honcho's neck was on the line as in the case of theDG of the BBC I think more company's would take a bit more care.
