Need/Want and price all have to be considered.The board have had 6 months to see the future shape up.If it remains a good un then go for it.We have already dumped a few billion dollars,So 700 mill +-quid is not a disaster.It's too big a deal to screw up because of vanity,I came aboard due to the fact that the divi had not been cut for 70 years.That is a helluva track record,Cest la vie,I am 3 years divi down already, I hope they get it right, Baz
