Hey nom,

I did read your post about the media not reporting the negotiations that were occurring under the Conservatives etc.

As i understand it, the press were largely unaware, with those in the know considering the process lip-service, designed to placate rather than meaningfully conclude.

Whatever, I agree, they didnt report for whatever reason, perhaps to suit, and i wasn't aware of any such negotiations.

However, all this has zero bearing on my opinion of the "deal" now that i am aware of it.

Hey Kenny,

Not allowing a debate? They haven't been in office long, and im already thinking - absolutely typical, lol.

"Though the deal does give the UK access to the base at Diego Garcia for at least another 99 years, this is cold comfort. Mauritius is a Chinese ally – and as an increasing number of nations across Asia and Africa can attest, international agreements are hardly worth the paper they are written on as far as President Xi is concerned."

From the Telegraph.

Hey Kenny,

From what ive read, I disapprove of the "deal", which seems to involve us giving ultimate control of a strategically important asset to an ally of China, and paying for the privilege through more cuts and tax rises.

I wonder how many voters would approve?

Saudi Arabia ready to abandon $100 crude target to take back market share.

Tro,

Re oil.

Would rather Israel target Irans nuclear weapons programme and ballistic missile supplies, military targets rather than oil infrastructure.

Saudi wont mind though, lol.

Tro,

At 1.17 ish, its gota go up surely. RSI was almost off the bottom of the scale, lol.

Zak Comment: "Verkhuba alone merits EST having a share price multiple times the current ones."

Got a few TXP also.

Some news on HELIX must be due.

Tro,

Bought a load of EST.

The privacy equivalent of the Manhattan Project.

Hey Trek,

Thanks, i dont read the HELIX BB so thanks for posting that here also. Tro provides links to the video presentations so i can just avoid wading through all the posters shouting at one another, lol.

I already took some profit on SEPL, which went into MSMN, but yeah, SEPL still looking good.

TXP, the video presentation was great, nice to have some engagement from the CEO, they dont seem to put much into promoting themselves, but PB did a nice job on Proactive.

Going to watch the SEPL presentation now, thanks.

Thanks Tro,

I suppose a lot is going to depend on what happens with Iran, escalation or not.

Natural Gas doing ok.

Probably best to just put everything in Helium and be done with it.

So long as it works Tro, lol.

They have cash, can drill again if needs be, and other targets, so looking good.

Sp just reflects the uncertainty i expect.

Big drill on ECO expected, but not for a while.

Wonder whats going on with CHAR, needs clarification on what next.

Watched some of the Walz / Vance debate.

Ignoring ones own policy preferences, thought they both preformed admirably all things considered.

Infinitely superior to Trump and Harris at any rate.

Going out to bat for Trump cant be easy, lol.

Tro,

Yeah, lots hinging on HELIX overcoming that shale, lol.

Hey nom,

If Israel are going to retaliate, sending Irans nuclear weapons programme into the Dark Ages would be a good bet imo.

Hey Tro,

Got some more MSMN.

MMAG, being bought on the cheap imo, there should be a good profit in used tech/media etc.

Im a physical media "purist" though so, but £10 million seems like peanuts, they operate in the U.S also.

Touchstone CEO Paul Baay on latest Cascadura field results:

"Owen Jones lists the 'nauseating' issues with the government, as the first Labour MP resigns | LBC"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZrNIleOofE

Fairly brutal.

Owen argues that the "right-wing press" are not responsible for the actions of the Lab Gov.

Perhaps he's reading Tecan and decided to weigh in, lol.

Rosie Duffield says government focused on ‘greed and power’ and the ‘lads are in charge’, day after leaving party.

"The former Labour MP Rosie Duffield has said Keir Starmer has “a problem with women” and that the government is “more interested in greed and power” than making changes to the country."

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/sep/29/rosie-duffield-keir-starmer-women-problem-labour

Obviously shes not impressed, lol.

"She said the row over freebies handed to Starmer and his top team demonstrated that “sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale”.

“Forcing a vote to make many older people iller and colder while you and your favourite colleagues enjoy free family trips”

She says - “Since the change of government in July, the revelations of hypocrisy have been staggering and increasingly outrageous." and questions, "accepting expensive personal gifts of designer suits and glasse".

She has also clashed with the Gov over prioritising men who identify as women, at the expense of women only spaces and victims of abuse.
