Put yourself in the shoes of the Sesame Street Gang an in particular JB/B1 after what the lowlife scumbag from the other mob has pulled an regardless of the BoD's knowing about what was taking place they have to play it with kid gloves...they cannot come out an say it like you, me or many others that have come to realise that the Exwankerbanker has shafted us again..in his defence JB an if he has an ounce of business acumen in him he would have to come out an keep the lid on things and then work through a hoist of options available to him to square the ledgers...I dont think this is the case at all but if I was in control one would think it would need to be handled with diplomacy first in that you have stayed committed to the JV to show the other side that alls good we understand your predicament an support you KP alwhilst I would be sharperning the knives out the back...well thats what any CEO worth his salt would do imho anyways.
