@timtak
you were not completely wrong, the profit was achieved in no small part due to the selling off of assets, Tokyo and Manhattan buildings spring to mind. It will be interesting to see the next set of results which, if asset selling is not included, will be more reflective of product performance.

For many people who actually remember pre 1980 Britain, Mrs Thatcher was a revolution. Of course the policies she had were harsh, someone will always lose out no matter which direction a government takes, but the unions and laughably weak labour government had lead the country to ruin.
