If you had invested your entire retirement fund into Eurotunnel,
wouldn't you actively try to fnd any solution that didn't involve you
losing your complete investment ?

It is perfectly normal for innvestors working as hard as possible to
find a solution which doesn't involve their shares becoming worthless.
And it is laudable that they rose up when they saw an apparanetly
incompetant management team and demanded they be replaced. Active
shareholders are good because they keep management accountable for their decisions.
