I hope the Commons Select Committee gets to the bottom of this, especially
why Green took out huge sums of money in the form of dividends, at the same time as a massive black hole was appearing in the Pension Scheme.

Could there be a connection ?

The tax payer will pick up most of the bill for the pension scheme again.
No doubt there will be fine words for helping former employees back to work

Bertie........The difficulty is that this new pension scheme collapse will put enormous strain on the Pension Protection Fund, especially if the Tata Steel Scheme has to be rescued as well.
Sceptical ?
If we leave the EU it will cost jobs, lol lol.
If there is a connection then full force of the law should be bought down.

But perhaps we should wait until someone has looked into it before casting aspersions. I prefer innocent until proven Guilty rather than trial by media personally.
You don't get to Sir Phillip Green's level of success without knowing exactly what you are doing.

If he is found to be responsible in the eyes of the law for this disaster, I will be seriously surprised.
The Commons Select Committee may well get to the bottom of it (i.e. why Mr Green paid out the company’s entire profits for five years and some more besides in the form of dividends, principally to his wife) but I doubt it. But even if they do, nothing will come of it. I don’t even know why they have involved themselves. Parliamentary committees were set up to enquire into the conduct of government departments. The Committees have no powers in such matters other than making politicians feel good. The matter should be investigated by the police.
