MarketWatch

LONDON (MarketWatch) — U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron’s spokesman declined to comment Tuesday on a report that government departments were preparing a contingency plan in case of the collapse of U.K. oil giant, BP PLC.
Asked about a report in the Times, suggesting the Treasury and the Business department were drawing up contingency plans, the spokesman said; “If they are happening, we would never comment on them”.
He also declined to comment on whether the government would have any concerns if a sovereign wealth fund were looking to take a stake in the company.
Prime Minister Cameron and Energy Secretary Chris Huhne are set to discuss BP’s future with U.S. officials during a July 20 trip to Washington, the Times reported.
On Monday, BP’s shares marched higher, gaining 3.5% after Shokri Ghanem, chairman of Libya’s National Oil Co. said he will recommend that the Libyan Investment Authority, the North African state’s sovereign-wealth fund, buy shares in BP.
Given the rising costs related to the spill–already topping $3 billion–BP could benefit from a strategic investment by a sovereign-wealth fund. Such an investment might also ease its path to raising the $20 billion it has pledged to a fund for spill claims.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
