One bloke is mostly to blame and his name is Benjamin. The sooner the world sees him for who he is the better. Just can't understand why the west is saying we have your back, but stop doing what you're doing. Surely that's some kind of contradiction, no?

Let's hope GLS come through for IDS because Royal Mail will never bring anything to the party. It's a failing business model. Just ask your postie.

Do you not read the news or is IDS the only share price you ever look at?

Even when results are announced and if they are fantastic, we are still not going to be anywhere near where we have been in the 540-560 range for weeks. Really wish i hadn't missed the 590 , was sure it was heading for 600 plus, which is fundamentally where it should be. Now looks like we'll struggle to hold above 500.

Xhita. no it's not just your view. Many think the same.

Looks like back to sub £5 again Monday. Grrr. Fuel is about to get very expensive again.

Another positive note with a price of £3.30 put on m&s today. In for a positive month I think. Cross fingers.

Royal mail is a failing entity. GLS earns IDS it's money to keep Royal mail afloat. Think that's right.

That's about spot on and a very truthful article about the state of this company. I left nearly a yr ago and nothing has improved. Wouldn't touch this with a bargepole now. Always said a few yrs ago, there's only about five yrs left and it'll be all over for royal mail. Be warned. Don't get burned, there are much much better companies to gamble your hard earned on.

From what I recall, we earn a lot of money from door to doors.

Will probably be an excuse for the market to drop come morning, especially travel sector?

Didn't they say their reasons for cutting capacity is trouble with Boeing? EZJ use Airbus planes don't they, so where's the link?

Market not enthralled with results. Wasn't too bad but on the other hand not much to shout about either. Full yr (and next they say) @ 4.5% on yesterday price. Pretty average by FTSE standard but well down on what we have got used to with PSN. With a wait until June for the next ex div and it only being 2.5% ish on yesterday price, maybe people are bailing out for greener pastures. It has turned more of a recovery play rather than income. Let's see if she recovers....

Well that's gone down well with the builders!

But Aject, the difference is, you couldn't buy RMG on the open market before it floated. That was an IPO, this isn't.

There is also not much good news where Royal mail is concerned. Ever! I should know, worked (past tense thank goodness) there for 24 yrs. Don't think the business will survive to be honest.

Can't really get my head around this. So would we all be better off selling our shares on open market and effectively buying them back at discount to market value in the govt offering? How on earth is it going to work?? If everyone has this frame of mind , won't there be a big sell off and SP crash?

Would have thought that would be a positive effect on the SP ?? Frustrating again by EZJ.

If I have to hear one more company I own shares in say to me they are returning capital to shareholders via buybacks........grrrr!! Haven't received a penny from buybacks!

Lost today what it would be anyway. Ho hum.
