His genuine reasons were tactical though. He blamed her for what Leah had got wrong - but picked Natalie, who had been identified as being at risk, over Leah - who would fight better, and whom they all seem wary of. He couldn't bring Myles back for failing to sell, because that meant underlining his own failure to sell. I think Lord Sugar sees something in Alex, though, and would have had to fire whoever else Kurt brought back in if he really wanted to lose 2.
