But what about the ridiculous old farts in tweed coats and bowling(sic) hats, the Investors, No mention of this group of scum.
Far from being 'old farts' in tweeds the major investors are large financial institutions, like insurance companies, commercial banks and financial conglomerates put together specifically to invest in major companies, their surprisingly young representatives will usually be dressed in Armani suits and driving a company Porsche. Using their block votes these major players can ensure that the 'old farts in tweeds' whose investment, by comparison, is minuscule but have kept the faith with QANTAS for years are voted down at any shareholders meeting.
The people massaging the egos of Dixon and Co and paying them obscenely large bonuses are city slickers, a different group of 'scum' altogether.
