Sigh

Such people should be shot, thieves is what they are nothing more.

the last thing they did in their carreer is win that money fair and square.

@Snestorm
You are paying for it every time you refill your car at a BP station (or any gas station for that matter, as each and every large company has it's high rank "pensioners").

Just that much eh? It's very little imo for a big oil company boss.
He could do with at least 5 times that amount

He's been withBP for 28 years.

He has been made the scapegoat, I have no problem with him getting his pension and lump sum.

Ditto.....even if it is that much more than I got for fifteen years.

I wonder if he'd mind swapping pensions with me

What you say is true however, I have no interest in seeing the oil companies owned by our governments.

I'm also opposed to the oil companies, and banksters, owning our governments!

Why is that your decision to make? Or mine? The Board of Directors awards the pension they think the man deserves, and their opinion is the only one who counts. Thieves? The only people he could have stolen from is the stockholders of his company. If they think he's a thief, they can do something about it.

Then you probably don't want to hear that his total "compensation" will be about $17,000,000 per year.

It is good to be the CEO of a huge company.
