What Would The Government Do If...?

Just a thought, but the shareholders of Lloyds, HBOS and RBS presumably will have to pass board resolutions allowing the boards to a) issue the preference shares and b) issue sufficient new ordinary shares to allow the rights issue to happen - they can't possibly have that headroom under their current permissions.

I wonder what would happen if the shareholders refused to pass those resolutions...?

It's going to be interesting to see the paperwork supporting the boards' recommendations to allow these issues.
