You say "A boardroom coup by the Kazakhs last month changed all that, and suddenly there were complaints from the non-execs that the owners' behaviour was "more Soviet than City". Well, what did they expect?"
As one of the ousted directors, I would make two points.
1. The complaint was not sudden - our ousting caused me to make public what had been the subject of internal debate for months.
2. My expectation was that explicit written representations regarding Board independence as a condition of the $3bn IPO and subsequently had provided assurances about their voting intentions would be honoured by their authors. That is how we do things in the City.
