For someone who says that he doesn't twitter because it's unregulated and states the need to avoid difficult ground to stay on the right side of the regulators that is an awful lot of price sensitive information that has never been officially released under regulated conditions.
Maybe the brokers have requested that he puts all that info out in RNS form for every shareholder to read and not just the few who may have met him in a pub or badgered him into an unregulated podcast,
Proactive Investors tend to do their professional podcasts on the same day that important news is released via RNS which I feel is a much better approach.
Unfortunately there seem to be a lot of cowboy podcasts turning up these days, usually having no relevance or timing to fit in with company newsflow, and often just at the whim of some presenter or shareholder(s).
There have only been 2 official RNS's re acquiring assets since trading resumed on 11th June and both led to shareprice retraces, while unofficial podcasts (I expect this shareprice to 10 bag at least), unofficial meetings in pubs with shareholders, and yesterdays podcast (full of unregulated price-sensitive info) have all seen the shareprice boost substantially.
It's time this was all done above board and officially to meet regulatory requirements.
Just my opinion.
