The West Australian is reporting that Steptoe and Son have been given marching orders by the Austrians. Wonder why it has taken them so long to work it out?
The West also reports the usual self written Steptoe eulogy about wonderful success with Consmin..yeh but the same thing happened there.
Pity Pierpont does not write anymore. It would be very interesting for a financial journo to write a full and revealing account of the absolute wealth destruction accross this mangy empire, the money that rushed from one company to another, the TTY debacle, the pathetic boards who just sat there and did nothing and last of all the investors who have just seen dollars shredded time and time again.

Well looks like back to the trucks for Steptoe and Son.
