"....Once again the usual suspects have taken these comments on a very weird tangent..."

Really Cath Evans? Cant the CEO's Office do a bit better than this?

Look at what one of the last truly independent UK News-papers say:

http://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/feb/24/slater-gordon-requests-share-suspension

And to quote for that article:

"... Slater & Gordon, the troubled personal injury and employment claims law firm, has asked for its shares to be suspended, citing material issues in its first-half results...."

I always knew "citing material issues in it's first half results.."

to mean either (a) being completely overoptimistic in ones financial projections (Negligent or Innocent Misrepresentation), or (b) simply lying about them and the last half year's figures (Fraudulent Misrepresentation)..

However, as Susskind and Des Hudson would agree, the new legal landscape has been a game changer that means that one no longer needs to know any law to errrmmmmm practise law ... Well no Tort or Contract Law anyway....
