WES has hit back at criticism of the conglomerate's $20 billion Coles demerger ahead of a shareholder vote in Perth on Thursday, saying suggestions the retailer would not be able to pay franked dividends for up to two years were "wrong".

Not only is your headline totally wrong and misleading to others, a man of your caliber should know better.The Financial Conduct Authority of this country could have you up for that sort of statement.I do not want you to have a court case.
Please be more careful in future. Dividends cannot be guaranteed to be paid in the future until they are declared and go XD, as I am sure you know. As for dividends keeping being paid out,that is also incorrect.At any point in time the company can, for whatever reason can stop paying dividends.
