Not sure I have understood this correctly but from the holdings and footnotes listed on the SLE website ST will still control about 23-24 million shares via one or both of the investment vehicles??
"If you issue a load of shares at 45p in exchange for debt ...and you then buy them back at 25p-35p....its a little financial alchemy...it" Raises the possibility that the so-called squirrels work for SLE ...
