Whilst Bates hasn't done anything illegal (or so we are lead to believe) there is still something fishy about his holdings and the dealings during this protracted saga. I would have been surprised if Bates hadn't won given the smoke and mirrors that have been used to explain away the finances and the tenuous links to overseas companies. I can't see this being sorted out before christmas. _________________________________________________________________ Feel like a local wherever you go with BackOfMyHand.com http://www.backofmyhand.com _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
