Angry fishermen in the Gulf Coast walked out of a meeting with British Petroleum yesterday following a controversial decision by the oil company. BP announced that it would subtract any money earned by the fishermen in oil spill cleanup from the $20 billion fund set to compensate the spill’s victims.
The fishermen said it was literally “pointless” to aid BP with their cleanup in any fashion.
TONY HAYWARD SAILS INTO INFAMY
British Petroleum CEO Tony Hayward isn’t going to win any PR awards. His latest public relations gaffe was to attend a yacht race over the weekend. That was such a poor choice that even Fox News piled on the criticism of the hapless oil exec.
An oil spill by Hayward’s company has already spilled millions of gallons of crude into the Gulf of Mexico with no end in sight. Hayward is such an incompetent stooge he’s already been compared to Marie Antoinette.
‘MY NAME IS TONY HAYWARD. I OWN A MANSION UND A YACHT.”
