Co-op divvy of £3.6 million

My touching naivety is still intact and I was actually shocked to find that the new head of the co-operative group is being paid £3.6 million for less than 8 months 'work'.

For older readers - that is a lot of green shield stamps !

I can't help but feel that this is hugely at odd with the philosophy of the Rochdale Pioneers, usually seen as founders of the co-operative movement.

co-operative members believe in the ethical values of:

Honesty

Openness

Social responsibility

Caring for others

Once again I have not heard anything from any politicians of any party on the subject.
