2. Sir Richard Branson was Chairman of Virgin throughout this period of the collusion (the BA top execs have changed since then). Will Sir Richard now resign ?
But the difference being, SRB actually owns 51% of Virgin, non of the BA management own any of it, aside from any shares they may have, they are just employees so I don't think SRB needs to step down as it is his company therefore he can pretty much do what he likes with it (within the law) - although I very much doubt that he had any actual involvement in this issue anyway.

The BA management on the other hand are supposed to be acting in the best interests of the shareholders, and in this case (speaking as a shareholder myself) they haven't.
