Don’t take it for granted that this’ll die the death, BT share price is already falling, so some people must think it may happen.
When companies like BT crash it’s not just private investors that get burned. Private pension funds, company pension funds, and other investments, are all likely to have holdings in such companies. Same applies to Apple, Microsoft etc, all are used by pension funds and others.
Tempting to think... if these folks did get elected... now the precedents been set with the Brexit referendum, can the powers that be simply decide to ignore the election on the basis that ‘people voted incorrectly’, and refuse to let them take over?
