First of all Fred don't go casting aspersions on people you know nothing about, I do know the guy and he's a decent, honest, upfront and very genuine person. What you see is what you get with Mr Christie, one thing I can guarantee you is that he has very sound financial / accounting qualifications and almost certainly knows a great deal about company law etc.
Next time maybe think about what you're writing or saying before making wild assumptions.
