helloitsonly Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 He's a dodgy businessman, not a philanthropist. Everything is negotiated. If he has paid a million pounds it is because that is what he has been advised it will cost, to keep a lid on the story. I doubt that we have heard the last allegation either, now that the genie is out of the bottle. hardly a dodgy businessman?? Knighthood ? multiple businesses doing well, if he was anything like dodgy he wouldn't have lasted and just because you dont like what he practices its what most businesses practice but on a different scale. as for allegations well lets just see how old they are and i will bet its just a bit of harmless banter but someone is out to get a slice?

El Cid Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Yes, that is true, but the decision of whether to remove the injunction was the job of the three high court judges and not Peter Hain. I haven't seen Peter Hains job description, MPs and Peers are given privileges to serve the people, I believe he was doing just that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I1L2T3 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I keep seeing this innocent until proven guilty argument. Nobody is saying Green should be arrested and charged. The reason for the original story seems to have been lost, and that is the inappropriate use of NDAs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Cats Hat Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 You make a fair point. I think it is more about the individual's morals, if they believe they have been a victim of criminal activity and decide to accept money rather than report the incident to the police. . That is absolute nonsense and you know it. It is nothing to do with morals and everything to do with power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister M Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Because he's guilty right? What is wrong with you people? Why can't you let the legal process run its course? The court of public opinion actually matters right? The uneducated at its best. Er no, the reason why I questioned whether he should be allowed to keep his knighthood was because of his role in the collapse of BHS. Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions.

Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions. So was I. Your lack of understanding of the whole BHS collapse is telling. Green was cleared of any action against him with regards to the collapse. He wasn’t even banned from being a company director. Don’t assume, it makes you look stupid. Edited October 28, 2018 by ez8004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ez8004 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Bet you a tenner to a charity of your choice that he turns out to be a scumbag. I agree with the sentiment. But this populist pitchfork approach to social justice is completely inappropriate for our modern civilised society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousemouse Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Why are those at the top only'thinking' of stripping him of his knighthood? He should be in prison for fraud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockdoctor Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Why are those at the top only'thinking' of stripping him of his knighthood? He should be in prison for fraud. He can't be sent to prison because he hasn't been found guilty of any criminal offence. I guess those at the top are comparing Sir Philip Green with Fred Goodwin, who was stripped of his Knighthood because of his role in the RBS scandal.
