Ms Jackson refusses to go
Last night Ms Jacksson refused to fall on her sword saying it's not her fault due to the confusion over the bid, she will not be resigning.

She is a narcissist, they will have to pry her fingers off the steering wheel, same with Dixon.
As has been demonstrated before, since they cannot empathise with human beings, they are incapable of understanding what market sentiment looks like, nor the fact that 50% of shareholders (or is it share numbers?) think the bid was too low, and do not have any trust in the Board.
She must also realise, as must Dixon, that their careers are effectively over.
The most telling point has been the behaviour of Mr. Sydney Heyman(?), the hedge fund owner who failed to deliver his acceptance for 5% of the QF shares. If the news reports are correct he wanted the bid to go ahead, but didn't want to part with his own shares to make it happen. In other words, he wanted the mugs to sell out while the smart money stayed in - what does that tell you??????????
I notice all the press are tiptoeing around "the elephant in the room" when discussing the APA bid, and to keep in Danny's good books, so will I.
My guess is APA is trying desperately to find some point of leverage to save their bid, and if necessary they will go all the way to the High Court - and quickly.
I wish somebody could drive a stake through the heart of APA, but I guess its pretty hard finding where to drive it in when dealing with "merchant bankers"

Now if we could manage to mass produce the hide of these people and use it in the skins of aircraft the producers of carbon fibre would go broke overnight.
It's as tough as all get out, absolutely impervious to any known force and seems to get tougher as it ages. The only problem I see with it is it seems to attract SPIVs!

She might be saying this publicly but in private she must be wondering if she will survive this.If APA's appeal fails then you would have to say her position is tenuous.

Considering the bonuses & wage she's been on, I really don't think she be down at Centrelink soon...therefore, I doubt she'll be all that worried.
If she does go, there'll be plenty of other Boards that would employ her...

hoss,
I didn't think of that but what a great idea.
something along the lines of
Jackson; "I'm not dead"
body dumper; "you're not fooliing anyone you know"
Jackson; "i feel better"
cart man; "look I can't take her like that - it's illegal"
body dumper; "well can't you wait for a bit"
cart man; "nah, gotta get over to Jetstar"

Jock,
With all their changes of tack, the jokers at APA could be seen to have started out as the businessmen who say "Ni!" but then ended up as the businessmen "... who say... who until recently said 'Ni!'"
