Same. The money to pay back all creditors just simply doesn’t exist. I was listening to a radio discussion last week about the rights of English local authorities to pursue the money they’re owed. Given some of the stakeholders involved, I’d imagine that Williams are closer to the bottom of the list of creditors than the top.
