Sir Philip Green must repay £400m or lose knighthood, says MP

What he did was legal.

The law should have been changed after Rover.

^ This. Legal but fooking wrong.

Rover is not the best precedent. Virgin Records is. Branson sold it for a Quid but insisted they change the name to Zavvi. By the time it went bust a year later everyone had forgotten it it was Virgin.

What, it's wrong to take divis from a profitable company?

[sasguru]

In the way that you are the uber-cretin. A low life leech who adds nothing.

I thought you were off for the night? Can't we have a rest from your monotonous idiocy for one night?

Argue the point or fook off, you immoral tax evader.

You really are a complete imbecile but I forgive you since you've had a hard life

The sale was obviously a bad one, but that's a separate issue.

Why? It's clearly linked.

In what way? Do you not take dividends when you've made a profit?

I don't have massive pension fund liabilities, he did have and it was obvious that in event of inevitable downturn pension fund will have massive deficit.

He's wrong about that, but the divi situation seems unfair to me. Otherwise we're all guilty on this forum...he didn't asset strip the business to pay his divis afaik, unless something comes to light in the investigation
