Who ?

Well thats sad bc now he cant see Jag and LR be profitable now that are are not owned by Ford

Initial reaction of mine was “if I to work for Indians after proper British environment, I would rather….”. The guy was relatively young, but cancer does not care.

@400horseSS, have some respect.

RIP.

Cancer really sucks.

thats a shame.

I wonder how much cash he pocketed for selling? at least his family will be taken care of.

Sad. Hopefully Tata won’t screw up the hard work this man did for Jaguar.

A fantastic bloke and really cared about the company that paid his wages (rare in his posision) a genuine honest guy, sadly missed.

@400horseSS

u clicked the link u read the name and yet u ask WHO?
DUMBASS

~ Rip mr Polites

Kiss my ass, people die everyday, this business is about stars ans this was a guy nobody ever heard of.

Geoff Polites will be sadly missed not only by his Motor Industry family, but also the many Ford fans in Australia.
He will also be missed by his favourite AFL team – The Sydney Swans
Vale GP

He would have had an enourmous life insurance policy anyway acura… they’ll be taken care of indeed…

And robwilliams has demonstrated other people knew him, regardless of 400horseSS ignorance or not.

Well done that man, and I hope Tata do something in his memory. Ratan Tata is a decent bloke and will not be as overjoyed as 400horseSS about this

Ok, some ultra rich dude dies, nobody really knew him except the people he worked with/for which are going to say good things about him as far as publicity goes. What about all the other people that die for us everyday, cops, soldiers, firemen etc?

HemiRoadRunner.. if it existed, the obituaries of the fine people you mention would be found on PublicServiceNews.com. This is LeftLaneNews.com, so we discuss automotive industry deaths here.

Guys like HEmiRoadrunner, SHUT THE **** UP.

Not everything in life has to acknowledge everything and everyone. We’re talking about an auto exec who died, not the ****ing NYPD or fire department. Get a grip, learn to focus on the discussion at hand. You’re a stupid knee-jerk American ****, this is the problem with the US and the reason why the country is getting eaten alive by every other country and incoming immigrant wave. You need to be less distractable.

Woahhhhh! I didn’t know I was being disrespectful to that many people’s bed buddy. Looks like deanster has a friend that you aren’t going to the land “down under” with anymore. The problem with this country, since nobody knows where your from, is politicians, lawyers, greedy CEO’s and complete disrespect for the working class and people in positions such as cops, teachers etc.

HRR, since when do you care about Cops and Firemen? Ya know they are part of the Unions too! The ones who you proudly bash all the time on here. How are Soldiers and Cops heros? Ya, heros for torturing innocent people. You’re a fool! Quit posting, and save you’re self the embarresment, before you really dig yourself in a deeper hole. Go find a girlfriend already, or better yet, get a job!

RIP Geoff Polites.

And enough with all the ****-sucking of the cops and firemen. They don’t have to go on a pedestal until the end of time. I know a lot of cops, some of them are power-tripping assholes. And the firefighters where I live, they don’t do ****ing ****. A house was on fire two doors down from me (row-complex apartments) and I asked the fireman if I should start evacuating my things – he goes “I don’t know, why would I know that?” Well jackass, is the fire raging out of control and about to spread or is it just cinder and smoke now? Idiots.

^ Thats right dumbass take one person to classify a group of people.

Well I have never heard of cops and firemen striking. The point is, there are people putting more on the line than a CEO that lives a harmless, lavish lifestyle while screwing over the guys building the cars he’s approving. I care about cops, firemen, teachers, soldiers, even 7-11 cashiers more than CEO’s because at least they work for a living. Deanster just makes crap up, of course your always going to have power trippers, that doesn’t apply to CEO’s of companies do does it jack@$$. What a bunch of retards. And don’t bother someone with a stupid @$$ comment like, “hey, the place is on fire, should I move my stuff?” He was probably in a hurry to get away from your dumb@$$ so he could do his job. Oh, and I am at WORK murdered stupid @$$ not in the unemployment line like you.

deanster tj, that explains alot. You are an idiot. Try a world without first responders dumb ass.

Wow, at record pace, the comments quickly turned to nothing about the article and mostly about calling each other pricks and hating on America. Wait, why should this article be any different than every other one on this site, right? Peace be with this man’s wife and children and brothers and sisters and friends.

Well well, the gallery of fags speaks up. Feeling a little bit of solidarity with your pig cop friends and useless firemen that choke on a kitchen fire? Faggots. **** you and your mothers, those gagslut alleyskanks.

And cops do strike, ****ing homos.

Damn deanster, your comments and the description of where you live make you sound EXACTLY like the guy from 40 year old Virgin. Don’t call the police, the paramedics, or anybody else you need an emergency since your such a badass. It’s funny how such a pointless comment from me about this overpaid CEO who had the easiest job in his company got your panties all in a wad. I guess your life is sooooo perfect that you have time to get worked up over such a bull**** thing. Besides, did you really have to ask the firemen if you needed to move your toaster, toothbrush, blow up doll and gay porno’s out of your apartment for a fire?

LMAO HHR, you call posting on LLN, WORK? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. Must be nice to still be mooching off you’re parents, and sitting on you’re ass all day. ROTFL!!!

No it’s nice to sit at my desk and check out LLN for an hour or 2 throughout the day while your sitting on your ass waiting for your strike to end.

Ummmmm who is HHR ?

^ Don’t know but it’s funny b/c he seems to bitch about unions and talks about his nice office like he’s part of upper management one moment, then the next he’s bitching about upper management and executives like he’s part of the union. So which one is it? …

And CEOs do not have the easiest, most overpaid jobs in the world. Only lowlife, dashing-for-the-door at 5pm ****s think that. And I’m not generalizing here. I worked in unionized jobs before and there are some really good, fair workers. Then there are the loads of bitter, world-owes-them-a-living ****tards that bitch about everything.

CEOs have the hardest, and easiest – to **** up – jobs. And when the union workers get off at 5pm and are chilling out with their buds over beers, the CEO’s still working … and virtually works nonstop, all day, everyday.

HRR, Sittin at daddys computer desk again at home pretending like you’re in a office again? BAHAHAHAHA. Noone in here buys into you’re bull****. We all know you really are the one who is unemployed here. Get outside sometime, shut off dads computer, and enjoy that muggy humid FL weather!

This is way too easy, someone please give me a challenge already!

Yeah G, in about 3 different posts, he claimed to have 5 different jobs. I SMELL BS!

Hmmm, I don’t ever remember saying I had 5 different jobs dumb @$$. I remember saying I worked as an automotive engineer, it sucked, and I have a much better engineering job now. And yes, I do have a desk, I’m not standing on an assembly line, or in an unemployment line like you, how else would I work dumb@$$. I guess your just a lazy mofo that pretends to be a union worker, and the FL weather is just fine, are you finally thawing out of your igloo up there. It’s funny how you post ALL day! Looks like you need a job dude.

Well, HRR gets his fat DOrito-eating asshole served to him by the LLN reading public. Care to eat a dick as a side order faggot?

Are you offering? That was kind of gay.

G obviously has no clue about real world work. Just because you have an office doesn’t make you the CEO or “upper management”. Yeah, unions are getting ridiculous with their demands, everyone knows it. And I don’t have to dash the door at 5pm anymore, I can comfortably come into work at 6:45AM and leave anytime I want between 2pm and 4pm, so go do some more detective work on that G. How old doyouhave to be to say “getting served by LLN members” ? What are you 13? Do ireally care about any of the other comments on here, no, I’ll still get paid for periodically looking throughout the day at what kind of crap retards are saying on here. It’s funny how saying something about who really cares about good ole geoff polites offends everyone, apparantly there isn’t enough going on in your lives. bye bye geoff.

jesus christ people, what are you kids???????? this article is not a place for you to start havin a go at each other it’s just to comment on this article. so you lot need to seriously calm down!

RIP Geoff, you did Jaguar and Land Rover proud!

HRR, you’re the faggot whos posting all day!LMAO I bet you haven’t even hit puberty yet or even have a license. It was a perfect 75 degree day here, ahhh no humidity or hurricanes like ****ty FL. We all know you’re still a fat virgin who lives with his parents and wacks it to kiddie porn, BTW I’m Chris Hansen and were doing a show on predators who molest children. You claim to have a Automotive engineering job? LMAO, another lie! There are no engineering auto jobs in FL! Go up stairs outta your dungeon basement, I think mommys calling you, for lunch. The only thing your engineering is to engineer your brain to be more retarded than it already is. You keep on bringing up Burger King and fast food places in many of you’re posts, I think you’re really trying to tell us you’re really a burger flipper. Anyone who comes on here and claims to have an engineering degree or an engineering job, but posts all day everyday day, is completley full of ****, and a compulsive liar. Not only have you lied to others on here, you keep lying to yourself. You suck at life you should end it now, and save everyone space.

HRR has no friends so he comes on here, because he has a ****ty life in a ****ty state of FL.
