According to the world clothing and shoe net, early this month, Philip Green revoked the injunction against reports of misconduct such as racial discrimination and sexual harassment, which allowed the media to expose more negative images of Philip Green, including five times to exchange money for victims' confidentiality, and two of them paid 1 million more masking fees respectively.

Although Philip Green has always insisted that "there is no law breaking", the voice of political and civil about the deprivation of its title has reached an unprecedented climax.

At the end of 2017, Karren Brady, who was appointed chairman of Taveta Investments Ltd., defended the retail kingdom of Philip Green two weeks ago, and she said through public relations team: "as chairman, I am concerned about our employees, customers and

brand

Feel very proud.

I am most concerned about 20 thousand employees working here, 85% of whom are women.

She said she refused to quit because of a sense of responsibility for her employees.

"I hope you will agree that it is very easy to leave, it is difficult to stick to the role and ensure the rapid development of the group," she told reporters.

As she advocated improving women's leadership and the right to speak, and against the abuse of power in the workplace, the outside world criticized the hypocrisy that she did not agree with.

Karran Brady, 49, has long been a legend in the British business world.

Studying well but giving up going to college, she became the general manager of Birmingham City F.C. Bermingham City Football Club at the age of 23, and has been vice president of West Ham United F.C. West Ham football club since 2010. So far, she has been known as the "first lady of football" and also the judge of the British version of Apprentice.

Karran Brady's daughter Sophia Peschisolido has been the social media content assistant of Topshop since 2016.

Taveta Investments Ltd. issued a statement today, saying it has actively sought out relevant experience, and is expected to announce the new appointment of the board in the near future.

As well as the competition of cheap fast fashion brands such as Primark, Arcadia Group Ltd.'s Topshop based brand has been greatly weakened in the UK's high street, and its performance over the past two years has also shrunk significantly.

From suspected tax avoidance to cheap sale, BHS, an old British department store, indirectly led to its bankruptcy liquidation, and then to the "#Metoo" scandal that began last year. Philip Green, which some congressmen called "an unacceptable representative of capitalism", has further dragged down its performance by its personal image that has fallen to the bottom.

Last week, a Pilates coach at Canyon Ranch, an American luxury health resort, said she was sexually harassed by Philip Green in January 2016. Arizona police said they had already charged a criminal investigation.

Philip Green has strongly denied intending to sell the group assets in whole or in part.

He sold the Arcadia Group Ltd.25% stake to the US Private Equity Investment Firm Leonard Green&Partners LP in 2013 for 350 million pounds.
