For taking out so much in dividends and creating a huge pension black hole?

Does this mean that people with pensions might loose out while he runs away making millions?

Well it didn't end well for the last pension thief with a luxury yacht.

There is something faintly satanic about earning so many millions that you decide your life would be better spent as a tax exile.

Weeks before he sold BHS for a £1, his stepson bought one of the BHS stores for £6m and sold it three months later for £9.5m. PG is disgusting as is everything he stands for.

Yes and the money he took out of the business was bloody chump change to him. He's a multi-billionaire, what would that money have bought him that he couldn't already have and not notice the cost?

The pension protection scheme is funded by contributions from companies with pension schemes.

He is a shining example of what is wrong with the UK under the Tories.

I hope he's the next celeb to pop his clogs.

The problem with BHS pension was it was on the outdated model of shares/dividends within itself, the business model wasn't viable in today's environment even without the vultures circling.

We could have a pension crisis in the public sector yet that could cause more devastating problems, you only have to glance over into Europe to see the plate spinning we are doing.

Under the tories!! - he's been around lot longer than this current lot, happens under all of them its how the world goes round in their realms

Yes, this stuff transcends political parties.

Here's hoping they throw the book at him.

Course they won't. The rich get richer, the poor get demonised and then eaten.

He'll never see repercussions for this. He's a billionaire, he's a Tory donor, he's untouchable.

I agree, Hissy. Once you get to a certain level of wealth and influence, normal principles no longer apply. He'll probably have a mock debate with a few politicians, have a laugh with Cameron and go out on his yacht...

Well my NI contributions have increased this month and I'm taking home £80 less but hey PG gets a yacht and I get to contribute to the BHS pension fund deficit he caused

He's already greased the right palms- and not just the Tories. I think he'll be ok. Sadly.
