I am bound to say that all this is somewhat redolent of government inspired hints of some form of corruption or at least sharp practice.
I do not think that it is sharp practice.
I am sorry, but this is coming very near to sharp practice.
A common element in many of the scandals is the prevalence of sharp practice and the industry's inability to get on top of it.
There is a feeling that sharp practice has been involved here.
That may be small comfort to them, but there can be no question here of sharp practice or deceit.
I believe that the timing was entirely fortuitous and that no sharp practice was intended.
I understand that this kind of sharp practice is still going on.
