Ha ha JG yes - see no one can blame Carolyn McCall for incompetence!

Why would they increase the dividend? It's already yielding 7.3% at current price. She will not increase dividend

Bald

I say "woke brigade" not because I do not believe in treating people especially minorities with respect but because the sheer focus of this woman on these things and how it looks has caused her not to be the ruthless business woman that she should be in order to get ITV moving. Keeping up appearances and such like instead of focusing on the job

Every earnings report the dame has issued since 28 July 2021- 2 yrs now - has been met with a sell off. What will change things with the backdrop we currently have and a lame dame that is just living on borrowed time? Nothing.

It's all about McCall now. The reputational damage carried out by her started months ago and the Schofield handling is the icing on the cake. Afraid she's damaged goods. City does not trust her and they are managing an exit for her as she is part of the woke brigade. Of that I am certain

Pogo I suspect you refer to me. You must be a real novice to think that opinions here influence the share price of ITV especially with such a low float. I suggest you study. Need to get out of the novice territory. This is just fun.

Let me guess fair value at 650 - copy paste last year's one and the one before - money for old rope

Opened another one for 0.51% of the stock at 67p. Let's see. By my reckoning they'll close it at 65p

Really who cares about women's football. Not even the women do.

3 ½ years now of slow grind to the bottom. Check a chart

Cue equity development to tell us about a fair value they've been on about for years which never materialises. This board is half asleep but due to the protracted situation in Ukraine they have some scraps coming over to them

Robs you have me confused with Tom of Wimbledon lol.

I think the vacant space has relocated to your head old boy. Keep on living on hopium and copium. Brexit is a disaster. Saw another poll today saying that 60% want to rejoin EU. Of course it will not happen just like that. But Labour are on the way in. Not because they are any good but the Tories are awful.

And apologies for letting autocorrect take over. I know loser.

I learned a few years ago that it is pointless to argue with Brexiteers. The facts were and still are stacked against them but they have been waiting for this for years after being brainwashed by the tabloids that the source of their problems was EU decisions as opposed to decisions made by the Govs. Mostly they are loosers in life to put it bluntly and feel now so proud they have won something that the rest does not matter. So let's get back to ITV. You can throw a million facts at them but they won't learn.

None leapfrog but I don't suffer Brexiteers gladly

Let me explain why all the people want to come over to the UK or rather wanted. As a European I came to study because the education system back in the late 80's early 90's was 2nd to none. Downhill since then. It was also paid for mostly by the beloved ~European Union (fees). Then I worked and the tax regime plus salary was favourable. Then successive govt stifled middle class enterpeunship by increasing taxes on LTD co's to the benefit of big companies and monopolies. When Brexit came lots of europeans left and a lot more are leaving now. There are no monetary benefits you just work to live as opposed to gaining any benefit by being in a country where let's face it apart from work there is not much else going on on any front. No wonder lots of famous footballers do not entertain the idea of playing in the premiership because when their wives find out that they will be say in Manchester as opposed to Barcelona or Madrid they get a shock.

Now all the poor immigrants want to be in the UK because if you compare the welfare system the UK has (the absolute minimum) with the non existent welfare system an African or undeveloped Asian country has (they don't) then this is much better

Hey Jed do keep up pls, I know it gets harder the older you get and when you don't spend much aside from a can of spam and baked beans but the rest of us that live in the real world and pay taxes (still do in the UK) for your inflation linked pension to be paid (enjoy inflation linking while it lasts BTW), get our facts about inflation from here https://tradingeconomics.com/united-kingdom/inflation-cpi#:~:text=Still%2C%20the%20inflation%20rate%20exceeded,with%2085.6%25%20the%20month%20before.

You will see that inflation is at 8.7% and more importantly food inflation is at a staggering 18.3%. Meanwhile the Eurozone that harmed you so much and you wanted out so that you could switch from hard working ~European immigrants that paid for your pension thru their contributions to benefit scrounging ones coming over in boats or student visas from Asia that you want to send to Rwanda, that Eurozone inflation is 5.5% and food 13.7%.

So enjoy your 5% interest in your bank account you are still at a minimum 4% worse off just on headline inflation (true inflation according to trueflation is 11% but hey ho let's not be that pessimistic). At least you have a sliver of hope that one day you may be able to transact using pounds exclusively, pay in shillings and of course you do have a blue passport let's not forget about that. I hope you don't need to use the NHS because Boris sold you a dummy with that 350M per week.

Yes anon3 indeed but there is a sense of pride that the brexiteers feel as mostly being loosers all the years and moaning about the EU as if it caused all their problems. Now they are relishing the chance to say "we beat you" even though they are the ones worse off. I personally left 4 years after Brexit as I could see the whole country was going down the drain

I live in a nice southern european country with plenty of fresh food produce mostly sun and a government that looks after its people whilst having a 4% growth rate. There is misery here too but a lot of help from gov. We have the lowest food inflation in Europe. Our energy bills are subsidised by gov while the prices were rocketing and big business is forced to pay for the common good. Whenever I am in UK I get depressed even though I lived and made my money there for 30yrs. But the UK is only for that. make money quick and get out while relatively young.

Jed you are wrong - please do try to import anything food related in the UK - it is such a hassle you will not believe hence the inflated prices.. Brexit will take another 20 yrs to sort out and it never will. I am not labour and please every politician with half a brain even the tories want back in but they are too scared of the vast majority of voters (old age pensioners mostly) who will not vote for them. Simple as that

Scientific studies - the sort that the Brexiteers do not want to know about either because they are too thick to read or because all they want is sovirinty (innit) - show that at least 2% of the inflation is attributed to Brexit. What has Brexit delivered to you? An efficient NHS perhaps? Dogs danglies it has. Less foreigners? You just replaced Europeans that were doing the jobs the Brit kids couldn't be asked to do with Asians and African immigrants which you pay for.
