Just repeating myself from a few weeks ago but I still feel the same:
Has no-one else cottoned on to the fact that they have been given up to 5 years to sell the insurance business? They have clearly said that their aim is to sell in 4 years. Do not think for one minute that in 3 years they will not start trying to
