All as planned

All those alleged sellers... hah

You mean EACH , and minimum, and x3 plus another inked then, and another five or six POC. Then there’s the switching of NHS to paid deals. And all that on the LPC side, the telephony side with £100M plus pipeline from cold start 9 months ago and starting to show revenue. .....................

tut tut - " as risky as this "..... i see flashing blue lights.

just wondering.

theo - CA is - i hear - a bondholder. so likely a double agent. last chance to spike the SP and dump some before a possible crushing dillution.

JTD - worth saying that at the AGM

should have been two RNSs. AGM: 15 June 2021, and new Chairman.

the clustering of 'names' on the old ship Metro is no bad thing. ought to suggest movement in one direction or another.

theo - shoot straight man. one week you drinking the share non-profits take on hur, now it appears you think CA will pull a rabbit out the hat?

not sure what that makes those that use that expression. the Debbie Downers?

JTD, my point was suggesting the issue is down to the BOD and they need to do something implies they have not done something, which is a negative outlook and a subtle deramp IMHO. But we are too old to split hairs.

Ian, i do not think there is a TP. One is (supposedly) a hedge against their long position. The other, likely thesis driven. Thus, event-led. Which feeds back to JTD's point about the control of the newsflow.

the point is clear monica69. did you not get it?

Britain's fifth largest accountancy firm is planning to allow its 5,500 staff to choose when they work at the office after the pandemic. BDO, which has 18 offices nationwide, said that it would allow staff to work where they were most productive, which the company expects to result in a mix of the office, home and client sites for the majority of employees.

BDO has told staff to decide where they would like to work post-pandemic, in a move that adopts a more flexible model than some of its rivals.

The challenger audit firm will ask staff to work wherever is most productive, depending upon the task they are doing. For most people this will likely mean a mixture of working at home, in the office, and at client sites.

...A BDO survey found nearly eight in 10 (79%) staff wanted to be able to work from home or have a hybrid model after the pandemic.

Major professional services firms have been open to the idea of hybrid or flexible working post-pandemic.

Staff at rival KPMG will spend on average just two days a week in the office from June, while PwC will expect staff to be in the office two to three days per week.

Deloitte is also going down the hybrid route, although the Big Four firm has not released specific information about the number of days per week staff will work remotely.

BDO plans to spend £8m of refitting its London and Bristol offices, Eagland told the FT, and plans to reconfigure its other offices to make space for meetings and teamwork.

you imply that they haven't then?

Ian B - I very much doubt we have shorts closing. Tidly amounts. Expect it is the carousel jokers.

I mean, who was doing all the video conferencing for the Palace of Westminster over the last year and the daily evening covid briefings with press video? Surely not Zoom????

Good call JTD. I fully agree.

Anyone gives a matlots chuff about the FCA . Old news. Unless a fine. Methinks they want to see profit, or what else is there but guess what Cud’s TW links say..
