Not quite correct to say the Speaker is not elected. He or she is but by other MPs

In my case Prosecco and Pecorino

It is very simple. Rules written down state in one started in 1604 that motions can only be voted on once. Seems dead basic to me but of course the Irish, Dutch etc had to vote again when their referenda gave the wrong result. Wrong to the great and good of course, remind you of anything

Both Ladbroke and Coral have UK to leave EU by 1st April 7&2 nowhere near 6 to 1

PS Why is all this on the Lloyds page when there is a Metro BANK ONE

I apologise profusely. Did not realise the comment was the second one down in the preamble. Have now looked on Gennacord and it is indeed just the second most shorted share at a little over 11% You still do not have my name right perhaps neither of us can read!

Looks as if the jobbers were caught with their pants down. Obviously had to sell to meet orders. These shares are dirt cheap.

Yes I am sure you are right. Just they are not quite such good value. But much better value than many. I think the UK market unlike others is quite cheap. Some good investment trust propositions around.

I have just read the whole of the article. The word short does not appear at all. The chart shows the shares fell by 40% this is nothing to do with being shorted. You got my name wrong too!

Who was it said Brexit had shafted Lloyds shares! I think they are fair value now they are mid sixties. Still value always outs jn the long run so you would not come to too much harm at these levels.

Where do you get your erroneous short figure for metrobank_ the correct figure is 10.29% from Short Tracker. It would in fact be quite impossible for 40% of a companies shares to be shorted.

UT trade not showing. But was it sale or purchase big difference. I still think these are dirt cheap

The present short position is 10.42% spread among three main parties. Peaked at just under 16% a year ago January. The trend is definitely downwards. Source Short Interest Tracker

Not quite sure what I still have it certainly is not a full head of hair. Italian women do have a certain something. A very plain mama once blew me kisses and waved and I had never clapped eyes on me before!

I hope you saw my posts about exchange rates. QE is not really extra money it is increasing liquidity by purchase of bonds. I disapprove of it as a method as it is clumsy reduces the gilt market which is needed by pension providers.

Condone means an amnesty for those who have broken planning regulations. There would be a special word for it, very Italian! They also have a word for a priests son, not something unknown in these parts. But I have to say the two ladies at the town hall were not bureaucratic at all, very smiley quick and efficient. The older one flirted gently with me. Again very Italian does no harm.

Without being unkind SL and Aberdeen have a rather better reputation than Lloyds at fund management. Why would they want to cancel such a contract early_ Must have members of the Brexit team working for them!

Your friend was lucky. You really do need permissions and initial floor plan and height have to be approved. This is all done by a Geometrica. On bureaucracy my residency was approved this morning. The lady said I had to pay her 52 not sure what for. I got out a 50 euro note and she laughed and said it was cents on ly. The tax cost 32 euros so now Brendas bank account will be unlocked and I do not need to worry about visas etc.

True the man is a pompous biased little prick but so many of you are heaping him with opprobrium for upholding the rules. In this case one made in 1604. The May proposition had already been voted on twice when it should only have been one. It is not a best of three tennis game. May has produced exactly the same deal over and over again. I hope tyhere will be no deal. No transition, save sub to Europe make deals immediately.But we are not ready as civil servants and MPs dragged their feet. Wish me luck trying to progress my Italian residence. In a bureaucratic place at present.

Hammond may not be able to count but her certainly knows how to subtract
