"GSK was mainly responsible for the bribes, which included cases of sexual bribery" !

"Police in China said British pharmaceuticals company GlaxoSmithKline made "illegal" transfers, as they released details of an investigation into bribery allegations. 

Four senior Chinese executives from GSK have been held, said Gao Feng, head of the economic crimes investigation unit. He said GSK had transferred as much as 3bn yuan ($489m; £323m) to travel agencies and consultancies since 2007.

On 11 July, the Ministry of Public Security said GSK executives had confessed to bribery and tax violations. Authorities said they suspect GSK of offering bribes to officials and doctors to try to boost sales in China.
On Monday, Mr Gao did not go into how much of the money was spent allegedly bribing officials and doctors. He did, however, say that the probe had found that GSK was mainly responsible for the bribes, which included cases of sexual bribery."

I can state unequivocally, Graham and myself have never succumbed to offers of sexual bribery to change our stance on the lowcarb way of life, and it’s positive promotion.

The truth of the matter is if me and Graham were plied with sexual bribery, we would need about three months notice.
