Viewer poll on businessman and GOB mending fences

In an unprecedented move, Prime Minister Dean Barrow extended an olive branch to the Ashcroft Group of companies, saying that there has been too much confrontation rather than cooperation. In light of this, we asked viewers this week: Do you support that the mending of fences between the Government and Lord Michael Ashcroft will in the least reduce the financial burden on taxpayers from litigation? It was another close poll, fifty-four to forty-six percent. The majority of viewers were in agreement that the reconciliation should result in less money spent on litigation.
