already all in at this level.

Oil tll creeping up and up, sector holding on from further dip by its fingertips. The inevitable is going to happen if oil doesn't u turn.

I love it, I get on the right side of the dip and the bloody thing barely moves!

I don't think cost or fuel surcharges will be an issue, but masks, tests, locator forms and any covid related restrictions are a definite put off. That includes beyond the airport and aircraft.

The sector is holding the dip pretty consistently whilst oil keeps edging up. Coiled spring if, IF, there is a close correlation. For once I'm bought in on the dip and whether today or tomorrow will be looking or 152 to take profits, possibly half sale of holding. This is intraday trading tough.

Who still requires masks on board.

Pandering to the mask lobby. A load of busy bodies who found a hook to manipulate with and will not let it go. Frankly, masks should be banned in all places except where they were required pre covid. This farce only became an institution because it as used as an anti-Trump emblem. Who is going to be held responsible for all the lung failures and lung cancer in the years to come from constantly breathing all these fibres?

About the oil price...

Brent crude creeping up still but travel sector seems to have stabilised on the inverse to oil. We have to wait for oil drop again to prove the correlation is back. Some big news on oil will come trough at some point - Iran for example.

At least I am riding the right side of this wave, not long before my 25% loss is restored, maybe even today with a bit of luck.

Now the Fed is out of the wa, BOE today I suspect priced in, it does look like he link to ol is back to being the most prominent variable.
Who is next in travel sector wit any results?

"I'm not going to take you seriously anymore" - you never did! I have to say, a rather pathetic attempt to try and play 'pied piper'. Reversing Brexit has become less and less attractive the more people have seen how the EU responded to the democratic expression. Every single issue created by Brexit has occurred because of trade and tariff impositions brought by the EU. The UK did not introduce one single tax, piece of paperwork or inspection. Everything introduced was at the insistence of the EU, EVERYTHING! They made a catastrophic mess trying to punish the UK and intimidate others not to be independent.

We should have gone WTO rules right from the outset and I would argue to dump the trade agreement now and go for WTO rules. We will be far better off. The whole planet is exacerbated by trade negotiations and the subsequent mashup of rules and regulations THEY, the EU, impose.

I know how the BBC work and just wait to hear the interviews!

And the issue with water treatment has no link at all to Brexit and such management on consents is routine. Not a single thing connection to Brexit. Poland and Germany had much worse driver issues. You create 100% propaganda out of bare faced lies. You lost the argument over Europe over years of corruption and anti-democratic diktats. People voted to leave against intense pro-EU mass media. Right cross the EU majorities want out but are denied a democratic vote. Even if there was a price to pay for Brexit, ten times what europhiles claim, people still wanted out. That is the price people were prepared to pay to reclaim independence. The most apocalyptic picture was forced on people but they still voted NO. And it will be repeated all across the EU as people return to democracy inspired by the independence of Ukraine.

We're out, and we are staying out!

Looks like the 'ang' in the boiler room e setting out their tall againto oust Big-Blue. I presume another spreadbet is being setup and I'm going to get in the way again! So this morning out of thin air we have targeted attacks against Big-Blue. I have the heart of a Ukraine so good luck with that.

Perfect, "may see partially treated effluent flushed into English rivers". Classic propaganda, this from Sept last year during highly stressed global pandemic situation with transport logistic issues. 'may' - not what is real but like with weather reporting focusing on potential future events which can b expressed as negatively as the writer wishes. And to manage the real world, we have 'partially treated', not raw, but 'partially treated' and something that required long extended discharges to have an effect.

"According to a government spokesperson, the action is a time-limited, precautionary measure and there are ‘robust conditions’ in place to mitigate risks to the environment. ‘The most sensitive and high-risk watercourses will not be affected and any company planning to make use of this short-term measure must first agree its use with the Environment Agency, which will be checking compliance.’ No companies have yet to apply."

A classic anti-Brexit propaganda bull I have warned about as these people continue to disregard democracy and continue with fake stories on behalf of the Soviet Europe to force the British to rejoin Europe against their will. Who does that remind you off? Shall we from here describe this anti-Brexit campaign the 'Putin doctrine'? Does that help understand what is going on here?

seem to have a link restored between oil and sector price, perhaps?

Water treatment engineering is a specialisation of mine. CSOs, combined sewer overflows have always been part of the sewage system. When the industry was nationalised, investment in phasing them out was very slow. Each amp cycle since privatisation has allowed hundreds of billions to be invested in such projects, the Thames Tideway project being a current huge one. These project take a great deal of time to plan and get past local authorities and scrutiny committees.
As for Ferripol, that is one of a log list of coagulants that are used in floc creation. I don't know of the current supply chain of coagulants but Brexit has not caused shortages of this kind in any of the quoted headlines. A lack of drivers, a world wide phenomena and worse in parts o EU than UK is the problem. And a shortage of coagulants would not have any impact on odour. Odour is due to hydrogen sulphide evolution due to stagnant zones in the anaerobic digestion stage [upstream from the coagulation stage]. Odour is one of the constant upgrades with eac amp cycle.
Discharge consents to rivers is highly managed and by the time any storm discharge is allowed it is predominantly surface run off with little raw sewage. Bear in mind, those rivers are not clean water, they have ish, birds, dad animals rotting in them, eficating in them as well as decaying vegetation. Serious overflows from storm events are getting rarer. Your smelly river is almost certainly the natural decay in the river itself and nothing to do with sewage treatment.

Well SanDiego, it could be worse. Remember Blair!
