... but has Sir Michael Bishop had anything to say ...
Not withstanding the porbably correct observation by
davidjohnson6, SMB does at least have the money to compensate him for seeing the exact opposite of all his plans.
(my speculation) For years, he prevented BA or VS from buying BD and thought he had 'won' by selling to LH. Now the worst has happened and his business has been shown to be badly managed, overblown and sold off to his arch enemy. Whilst he is not soley responsible - he was the one who held all the strings and was reported as being hands on in the main era of the carrier.
Still, money and sitting in the house of lords will probably convince a few folk what a jolly clever business man he was ...
