SFO faces £10m legal bill on collapsed pharma investigation

As Can I point out - amid all the slghtly nauseating backslapping amongst the defence firms involved - that these drugs firms (far from being so pearly white) all settled with the NHS in a multi-milliion pound settlement relating to the pricing of generic drugs. Whatever the SFO investigation cost the tax payer, it pales into insignificance against what the tax payer paid over the odds for years due to the behaviour of these companies. Or are we all going to ignore that fact?
