Wasn't he also Queen Elizabeth's lover (or paramour)?

@Chip Skylark of Space: Yep! He also may or may not have killed his wife.

@LadyTudorRose: Well, now we know why he's qualified to be the new CEO of BP: connections, dark past (adulterer, murderer?), snappy dresser. To quote Warren Zevon, '...and his hair was perfect'

What's not to like?

Now that an American is in charge, I have little doubt that this entire mess will be fixed within the next few days.

@Murray Hewitt: At the very least, the PR and spin should be more professional and well produced.

Haywood leaves with around $20M and that is just the beginning. He could have sat there and named names and tried to push the blame everywhere else, but everyone in the energy business knows he was a good boy, took the lashing that was meant for them as well and now he will be a $100M/year "consultant" in the industry for as long as time exists.

Yes...poor Tony.

Not only did he get his life back, but now he is being rewarded for his handsomely.

Poor fucker just cant show his face in the colonies anymore...or he will be some guest speaker at Pat Robinson University on clean energy.
