Letter: Daniels' mission

I was interested to read the article on the potential search for a replacement chief executive for Lloyds Banking Group (20 May). What was more interesting was the quote from the present incumbent, the mercurial Eric Daniels, that his "work was not yet finished".

Given that shareholder value has been ruined; given that the share price has collapsed; given that dividend payments are extinct and given that 16,000 people have lost their jobs – what is Eric dreaming up as an end to his work: oblivion?
