No problem and we just need Sir Keir to keep banging on about how he wants to impose more windfall tax on the likes of BP. and SHEL. Meanwhile the Corbyn element in his own party are having a good old laugh on the picket lines as they know he will not say Boo to any of the overpaid union leaders.

BHP made a mere circa $23 billion last year so good that they are well away from Keir Starmer and his Marxist cronies....lest we forget he was fully behind Jeremy Corbyn becoming leader of the Labour Party. I am sure he enjoys seeing Labour MP's and front bench shadow ministers joining picket lines and defying his orders. Must make him choke at his beer and curry nights.

Richard.....talking about the split and turning down the Unilever offer , not the "latest news"

I agree that Emma has to go and the whole "split " has been a disaster. Fortunately I got out in mid July in the 1700's and will keep an eye on matters especially if a potential takeover seems a possibility.

54.45 p dividend due to be paid today. Happy days at £2.10p per annum on an entry price in the mid £20's.

I believe it is 1.75p scheduled for 31 August .

Agree with you Clued on your points made. It was all quite sickening to see some of the lavish EU "**** ups" a few years ago . Freebies taken by politicians should be taxed as benefits at the top rate of tax at the very least but I like your idea of converting the benefit into a charitable donation. We know that KS likes his football as well as a beer or two with curry after working hours.......I wonder how many of the Durham Police top brass were paid up members of the Labour Party ?

And that David Lammy has also forgotten to declare gifts in a timely manner or is it too complicated....is this a Labour illness ? Starmer, Lammy, Rayner et al love to accept gifts for football matches , days out and the opera. I am sure that many needing to call on food banks will be more than happy for this to continue ad infinitum. BP pay their fair share of taxes as it is but at least this KS posturing shows where we are heading with a potential Labour Government. There is already an exodus underway.

And a reasonable buy at 16.35 yesterday amounting to £10 million. For an income portfolio wrapped in an ISA , LGEN looks like a core hold.

Sold my position ahead of the share split as I lost confidence in the CEO. Reinvested proceeds in an ASX listed emerging gold miner.

Aff.......or instead of buying another TV could go towards some more fags. I believe that a smoker on 20 fags a day could give up and could have saved about £4000. !! Cynic as I am , I have held shares in BATS for some time now.

Spights.......then the majors like BP and SHELL will spend more on wind and solar energy projects amongst others and I would like to see The Lib Dems and Labour argue that it is good to tax green energy.

Neil.....you are correct. With the BBC relishing telling all of us how the cost of living crisis is hitting all our pockets maybe a small help would be abolishing the cost of a TV licence. I am sure that the salaries of the likes of Gary Lineker could be cut substantially and plenty others. At least the price of diesel at my local Shell garage has dropped from £1.98 to £1.84 per litre over the past couple of weeks.

Bald Eagle....The analysts will need a few shots of caffeine this am once they get past halfway in these results ! I gave up after 20 minutes and just reverted back to the headline numbers and dividend in particular which is fine. This will stay in my dividend portfolio for another year at least.

Razors....Cote D'Ivoire is a great place to find good gold deposits in its multiple greenstone belts. Have look at the ASX listed Tietto Minerals (ASX:TIE) for some information.

Gold trading at $1810 on the NY Comex but spot not far shy of $1800. Still waiting to buy HUM as not that impressed when I met up with them in London at 121 in late May. Company in danger of receiving a low ball bid if DD stacks up.

Just listened to the Presentation which started at 9.30 am and is still continuing with Q and A ! Impressive and has given me a lot of confidence in the future especially cost savings, solar plant construction, new tenements and mention of minimum dividend of 5c on an annual basis.

Not even enough to replace part of the USA strategic pool of oil put on the market on Sleepy Joe's instructions a few months back. No wonder USA pleading with OPEC to increase production far more than this measly amount.

So Snowking please tell all of us "guys" what the strip ratio is , how many tonnes of ore will be needed to produce a 6% spodumene concentrate , shipping costs to China and rail costs to a port . Which port by the way as rail allocation through South Africa is not too easy at present but perhaps you are not aware that Zimbabwe is a landlocked country !
