Points:

- UK more likely now to open up fully on 21/06 than not as a payback.
- More shares were bought than sold on both IAG and EZJ
- EZJ down 12.5% since last green list announcement. IAG 7%. Not good but not bad.
- Carnival Cruise Lines (CCL-GB) hit a 52 wk high today. Strange.
- Grant Schapps dosen't half love himself.
- Fungazi1 is A.Smithy on EZJ bb.

@Jtan

The Sun reported it just after mid-night based on the Nepal scariant. Radio 2 reported it at 7am but it was dropped from their bulletins at least until 11am. It is easier for politicians to answer questions after an organised 'leak' as they know whats coming and the general feeling out there.

It's beyond belief. After the long weekend, today , yet more scientists are popping up all over the media like mushrooms warning we should be wary of opening 21/06!

No deaths last 28 days (first time since March 20!) plus new infections down 8%. The spoken media don't even provide balance with the same amount of airtime given to others as to why we should open as expected.

Now they are saying lengthening hospital waiting lists are an excuse not to open because they might get longer!. FFS! Clutching at straws and deeply offensive to me with friends in the NHS.

Apart from the oxygen of publicity for these sub standard publicity mad scientists there is no good reason for not re-opening given nobody is dying or crawling to an overwhelmed hospital. That WAS the whole idea of lockdown.

Email your MP.

All the usual suspects 'scientists, experts' etc, being wheeled out in the media on a slow news long weekend.

They won't be happy until someone says 'you were right', 'fancy writing a book on this' with a big up front payment, a knighthood, invitation to become a NED on a pharmaceuticals board or everyone is dead.

Just to keep the negative news flow coming, BBC radio 2 reported this morning that Vietnam cases were increasing and then stated that 1% of their population had been vaccinated! No positive news such as that India's rate had now flat lined after a terrible couple of months.

See beyond the news.

Clearly, June 7th is a big day. The weekend before that will course be full of speculation if not the days before.

Come June 21, at current rates, 80% of UK adults will be double dosed and 65% first dosed. That must surely be classed as herd immunity with the vaccination programme then begining to be wound down. Even if you do then catch it you won't die or need hospitalisation.

Furthermore. There is the upcoming G7 meeting in the UK on 11 to 13 June. All those nations leader will be there. Travel not on the agenda. Might be an opportunity though for Boris and Joe to announce something and helping that 'special relationship'.

The UK and US govs will now be under pressure to open up just as the EU is about to agree this and probably by Friday. Individual govs have the final say though but they are all tourist trap countries.

The US will be first to reciprocate leaving the poor old UK looking like fumbling idiots and continuing to bang on about 'variants of concern' and conveniently scaring people in to getting vaccinated even when they know beforehand that any vaccine will take care of that variant.

They did say that travellers would be looking to upgrade were possible. Nearly two years of unspent travel savings to spend. Although, the CE middle seat is unoccupied so there may be an element of safe travelling at play and PR? Not for Ezj, Ryn or Wizz of course.

The Gov are keeping the people of the UK on their toes, once again, by ramping up the variant of concern spiel. The people of the UK have kept their side of the bargain - nearly eighteen months of lockdown, job losses, bankrupt businesses, severe mental health issues - in exchange for helping to bring the death rate to near zero and safeguarding the most vulnerable who are now well out of danger. Anyone who catches this now will now likely be in for a typical cold. What's with all the backtracking and the treating of us like idiots now?

We now need our side of the bargain given to us fully on June 21.

UK gov confirming all of what was already out there.

Knocking on the FTSE 100 door next shuffle and coinciding nicely with the next gov travel list in three weeks time. H1 21 on 20th May. Interesting next few weeks. See how it all pans out next week first.

Keep an eye out tonight as they have often released market sensitive stuff after the close. Arms them for the following morning.

Interesting day in any event with the Gov's first travel list out.

Anybody any decent insight ad to why this is soaring?

There is only 1 notifiable (over 0.5%) short postion in both EZJ and IAG. Nearly c.9%+/- at the height of the pandemic. So all the fluctuations can only be down to day traders and normal news flow and speculation. Bad news, as it stands, if you are expecting this to tank.

Not sure if this will be leaked over the week-end. Seems the normal way govs manage news flow. If your in, your locked in until April 6th 08.00. Fingers crossed.

Strong message today from a NED.

Never sure what the media 'Experts' will spout out over the weekend...

Usually draws more buyers in.

The comings and goings over this weekend is exactly what any trader wants - volatility.

Good opportunities will now present themselves until the Gov travel announcement on Apr 12.

It's great to get this board back.

Return of c.135% on rights price.

Can't be bad if you took up your full rights.

Hard to believe but 4M first doses given since mid December. The 15M by mid February begins to seem realistic now as more outlets for jabs are created. Great news for humankind. Can't wait for mine and proof that I can use to fly/travel more and safely again.

Had a look a this and others in this sector. Its had to fathom. Possible rights issue and dilution. JDW up too. Marstons up 7% Friday. National Express up 4% Friday and 10% after 4 days even after suspending all services until at least March 1st!

There is not a lot of short postions in any of these to boot.

Uncomfortable and a little worried.
