The inept clown can't balance the budget....it's that simple.

Her micro department have one brain cell between them...TAX TAX TAX while the over blotted public sector needs culled.

Public sector culled.

Zero illegal immigrants.

These amateurs couldn't run a candy pic & mix stall.

They will NOT abolish council tax and replace with property tax .... The Westminster/high end property companies & high net worth individuals will kill that dead.

All major supermarkets with properties above 500K have already lobbied government that they close many with redundancies.

She knows the problem....STOP illegal immigrants entering the country, place all illegals onto converted oil tankers and process at sea....should sort it's self out in few months....job done!

One can only hope for patriots with common sense in Wasteminster

The USA under Trump has shown their hand, forcing the BRICS to dedollarize and trade without the use of usd.

They will eliminate SWIFT in their banking systems.....Trump is just speeding up the enivitable demise of USA dominance.

FT....16 analysts offering 12 months forecast.

High...... 1876p

Medium 1533p

Low ...... 1270p

Ride this one out until Feb/March 2026 new house sales.

I'm not adding more PSN. I'll try and trade another share & use profits to average down my PSN holding.....each to their own strategy.

Ukraine Russia solution......Ukraine gives offers 100 year lease for the Donbas Region.

Ukraine can rebuild it's war torn country with a one of payment for the 100 year lease.

Putin long gone & hopefully Russia would have more tolerant leaders decades down the road.

THE END

Good evening getafgrip,

Apologies.

I just noticed your July post reference LGEN.

Not been on here for sometime..... sold my SHEL shares, I couldn't get excited about the divi verses BP.

Well done with LGEN purchase, fabulous passive income play now or in the future.

I'm holding.....LGEN, PHNX, AV & MNG.

I'll catch up with you on the LGEN bb as we go ex divi next week.

ATB

So Trump isn't baulking with Putin's demands for the eastern Donetsk region and Luhansk together known as the Donbas in exchange for a ceasefire.

Perhaps Trump should show some solidarity and hand over Alaska to sweeten the peace deal ..........let's see how that would sit with the American population.

Trump keeps saying this is Biden's war.......well Biden was weak.....so Mr Trump, show the world what you would have done differently in Biden's term.

Let's hope Putin has a change of heart 🙏

The full list of institutional investor/funds ......Total 244 as of 17th August 2025.

239 Long Only.

5 Short Only.

All Housebuilders are down.

The industry is at the mercy of this incompetent government who blame red tape for stifling house growth.

First time buyers require assistance Help to Buy!

Youngsters in their mid twenties, in many cases are paying 700 ++ pounds per month with student loans, plus ridiculous rentals, plus trying to save a deposit.

The flip side government will spew out brainwashing pis# that Germany has rentals ...bla, bla. Most rentals in Germany are capped well below the price of a monthly mortgage & for multiple decades Germans have chosen to put the saving into their pensions. (There will always be the minority cases which BBC will twist)

We have an apartment in Vienna & to rent it out...first we need neighbours permission side by side upper floor & lower floor....if one objects it's not possible to rent out....then the city have maximum rental as percentage of property value.

The property prices are one third of London because of rental rules (Same inflation, same build costs but the ground value isn't insane)

I know PSN aren't in the high end game, however all the housebuilders require is a government that would sit down with youngsters/first time buyers & listen to their disposable income problems which translate over to the HB industry.

Torie/ Lab...both are dead, but at least give some hope to the indigenous young generation.

I really don't care about short/long positions........that's what creates a trading market, which is basically noise & if one is buyer, then add on the noise. (Most shares will always have short positions to cover some long positions)

What I am against is blatant market manipulation with fake/speculative press releases or brokers manipulating downward pressure on a share, with insider knowledge of results ahead of markets or in the worst case buying shares for clients knowing a take over was imminent.

Have a pleasant weekend

Afternoon Crossley...... I'm 7hrs ahead of Old Blighty, a cooler evening, was 32C today!

I'm fairly confident that PSN will be back 1300p++ Jan/Feb 2026.

Good morning Optimus,

"French energy giant wins legal battle to shut down North Sea oil fields"

The floater is a treasonous lobbiest from within government.

We are no longer in the EU, but I do get it, the gravy train treasonous Wasteminster despise the indigenous British people.

The UK has some of the highest energy costs in the developed world but hey ho, millipede isn't alone....the Tories are also unrecognizable.

I'm all for progress/transition & evolution not wreakless revolution.

Britain needs choice....Oil, LNG, SMR, Wind, Solar, Hydro electric, Biomass and more energy sources.

Millipede ...total swamp creature
