Hi TJ,
Interesting story. The "financial adviser " is painted as the victim here, in spite of the fact he apparently lost the pensioners 2 million pounds. Now the pensioners face 15 years in prison because they tried to get back what the court of law probably wouldn't or couldn't, their money. Sounds like it is not just the USA that protects special interests. Wonder what the public reaction would have been if the "financial adviser " had been Bernie Madoff?

Oh BTW will pm you about trip, and compare vacation schedules/locations.

regards,

R.

Nigerians would do exactly like that. Plus a big nail hammered on top of the head...

A showcase of the coolness of "rule of law (oops! actually ruled by law)" that went way above common sense or entrenched into the field of normal morality.
