Good that AK fronted up - compared to that king size coward, Radford, who rightly has been dumped.
But AK was not convincing - he kept skirting the real question - do the victim's families deserve compensation from NZOG?
Well, Mr Knight, you will be aware that NZOG was the promotor, supporter and sponsor of Pike River Coal.
You will also be aware that NZOG kept pumping money (in fact, NZOG was consistently the principal underwriter) into Pike River when there were clear indications of how dysfunctional the mine and management were.
THE SUPPORT FROM NZOG allowed Pike River to continue with its folly of operating an unsafe mine, LEADING TO THE DEATHS OF 29 MINERS.
Now you are trying to argue that NZOG has no moral obligation to contribute to the victims' families?
You are using shareholders, who NZOG normally does not care a hoot, to justify your morally corrupt stance?
Shame on you.
