The ousted chair of BP has hit back at the “lies” surrounding his conduct, outlining how he made his own coffee, refused a chauffeur-driven limousine, and ate lunch at a local cafe during his tenure at the oil giant.
In an extraordinary statement, Albert Manifold, who was sacked this week due to “serious concerns” over his conduct, said he does not accept “that lies can be told about me, nor that anyone should be allowed to hide behind anonymity when commenting on my time at BP”.
