Hiya, Mr.dt,
Have I signed the petition? Should I? Putting my name to a petition that in itself throws up many inconsistencies doesn’t, from my perspective anyway, seem entirely appropriate to be honest.. Despite some of its ostensibly best intentions.
Even if we set aside the clawing, clamouring overtones, and furthermore, dismiss any potential embarrassment such a petition might bring the company, should shareholders realistically pursue an appeal to a Tory government when their local representative himself, Robert Goodwill MP, had this to say:
"I think the answer from the Government is the final answer. I've already been involved; I spoke directly to the Prime Minster on the 2nd of September and I spoke to Treasury Ministers that week. I know the Mayor of Tees Valley, Ben Houchen, has also spoken to Ministers including Jake Berry, who's the Northern Powerhouse Minister. So we made as many representations as we could, we explored every single angle to bring pressure to bear. It appears that this is something quite unprecedented; not the sort of thing the Treasury would normally do. I think their view is, is that there's a lot of money around the world, looking for a safe house to invest; a lot of big mining companies around the world who are looking for new projects and maybe by going it alone, Sirius have maybe bitten off a little bit more than they can chew and they need to find a big, strong partner to help bring this project to fruition."?
Reckon that tells us all we need to know, myself. And the less of the as-ever blame the EU disinformation the better as far as I am concerned. After all, and according to our CEO, that’s hardly helped us much at all, has it?
Regards,

Farmers decided they didn't want to spend the time spreading x3 as much over the fields. They'd rather be shagging in the haystack.

Clueless!
But have you signed the petition though paa?
SXX article just popped up on the BBC News web page. BBC giving a platform for SXX.
Well put p.a.a.a.
It's good to see plenty of the long termers still posting and hanging in there.having Listened to the conference call I feel confident that c.f. will get us the finance we need without damaging the share holders too much.
...in light of testing carried out by an array of respected institutions we know that, across a variety of differing circumstances, Poly4 offers a unique combination of characteristics that prove compelling - not least, that it is chloride free. So, are we to conclude we are facing reluctance from those who get their nails dirty, or is it simply a reluctance from the money men to back something new, unproven, yet to make its mark, when more ‘certain’ returns can be made elsewhere? It is clear that we don’t find ourselves where we are today because the science isn’t there, rather, because the confidence in the market isn’t.
So we bide our time. We lick our wounds, keep proving up the product and accept it never, ever, has been easy. Disrupters don’t usually find it so.
As a shareholder I expect my support to shoulder the heaviest burden (debt providers are not investors as we should all know), however, I am surprised that with an agronomy programme consistently producing compelling results, worst case scenarios continue to prevail. Still, I expect Chris to prove them - and anyone else who doubts him - wrong. It is here is where any shareholder who remains will earn (or lose) their returns. But when it does all come home, believe me, those returns will be ‘earned’.
Twelve little words.

“I’m the custodian of this project and I have to deliver it.”
I’ve been an investor in Sirius Minerals for a decade. 10 long years of opportunity cost as time slips away like the sand in an egg timer...
But enough of that *******s. Reckon there’s been one tale of woe too many here of late. And whilst I have much sympathy for those who - for whatever reason - have decided that here is where their journey ends, the fact remains that this is by far the end of the road for Sirius Minerals.
Yes, shareholders are currently staring into the abyss. Some, quite literally (hello boys and girls!). However, to my mind if we are to conclude that we have reached the end of the road - then we must also admit that there is no other option open to us. And yet, clearly, that is not the case. From a strategic investor, to tailoring build finance to individual elements and the potential of IPA re-engagement, clearly other options remain. And all the while that is so, how can we possibly say it is over?
I first bought into Sirius believing we’d hit KCL in North Dakota. Unfortunately that never happened. “The potash stops at the border”, apparently. So, when Chris Fraser backed his York Potash truck into a reverse takeover of Sirius back in 2011 - despite initial scepticism - I was soon enthusiastic for the potential of polyhalite. Having previously studied for an RHS diploma (never sat the exams), Carl Sprengal’s ‘limiting factor’ theories (which went on to become known as ‘Liebig’s Law’) resonated with me, and this was reinforced by my own observations from years of allotmenteering.
So, after first meeting Chris and discovering his singleminded determination to make Sirius the “new potash powerhouse’, and with an appreciation of the science behind his reasoning, it wasn’t long before I determined to hitch my cart to his wagon; concluding that it would not be too long before he would drive it to fruition. I made that decision and was comfortable with it. Of course I anticipated that on the part of industry there’d be a a reluctance to change, or a reticence to try something new, however, I also believed that if the price point for K remained competitive, then across an array of scenarios, Poly4 would be able to facilitate an advantageous fertilisation regime that would see farmers enjoying bumper yields. That in itself would soon ensure a significant adoption the product. After all (on the whole) farmers are invariably a canny lot, and if a cheaper product can offer comparative results (or sometimes better!), it would not take long for them to climb aboard and start buying. Never did it occur to me that they wouldn’t get the chance.
Recent developments would suggest that our product is inferior - but is that entirely accurate curate? Only a fool or the unresearched would refuse to acknowledge that polyhalite only has ~ 30% of the K in KCL, however...
