How did a person like you ever decide to call himself by a name like that? I ask out if genuine curiosity. Was it simply the many years over which the truth was borne in upon you ir was there a sudden realisation or a public award of some kind ? It always interests me what eventually brings attributes to people's own awareness which typically take only a few seconds for others to grasp. Thanks.

After the BBA lost the case in court there was talk of appealing. And AHO did say he wssn't going to. The only sensible course . it was clearly not winnable. PPI was a huge **** up at best, a scam st worst. Then there was the politics. Lloyds name was as black as RBSs in those days and there was much talk of splitting it up. (Look how that went in the tiny case of TSB. Vast expense to no good). When the old bill say your nicked and they have the handcuffs out its time to pay the price. Its a shame the burden of proof was not higher but they pushed most back to ombudsman as it was and were criticised for it.
Take PPI up with the the leaders of the three banks who caused the problem, and the FCA for the way its been handled. AHO has had no part in it other than dealing wth the mess. Have a word with the brexit campaigners while you're at it.
The figures are not bad at all given everything. It shows a strong business. This share is giving out 6% dividend. The rules of wise investing are laid out in ancient stone now. Choose sound businesses, buy low, sell high, hold for income, diversify across sector and investmentment type. Do not invest more than you can afford. How mang follow those simple rules.
Central bank heads have to be appointed by governments who have views on who represent them best. For the ECB there are 19 countries involved. In most just one. Choosing a head is not the same as tweeting and presduring them to take rate decisions to suit one individuals desire to wage trade wars.
Its very relevant to.mention Fed rate decision here. It doesn't normally directly affect Lloyds too much. Our own issues do as we see. Markets are expecting a cut. They'll also be looking at what is said to try to determine intentiins. They have the ludicrous problem of Trump pushing for more rate cuts so he can wage his damaging teade wars and still look good. Central banks are supposed to be independent of governments for good reason. Governments aren't supposed to damage trade either while conducting terrible foreign polucy. Boris copying Trump is no good thing.
Very good move. Buy cheap, administrr efficiently, cross sell.

I fully comprehend his point. It's impossible to misinterpret. He is a crackpot who is on record over and over promoting no deal whole saying it will end the UK car industry, much of the manufacturing sector and farming. All he things he thinks are ok. He advocates taking away workers rights and envirinmental controls. What he said in 1981 doesn't justify his claims now which have been widely discredited.
Patrick sadly as wrong as ever.
Nearly 70% of imports come to us tariff free now from EU, EFTA and countries with EU FTA's .
Only 10% of imports come from America. A reduction of prices by 20% is impossible.
The position is more complicated as the current plan is to reduce our import tariffs to mitigate the move to WTO. But as Liam Fox says that is stopping countries like Canada rolling over FTA's because it gives them a better deal than an FTA. So import tariffs might yet be set higher. If Liam Fox doesb't know a few weeks before who does. Meanwhile WTO tariffs on such as lamb and cheese to name but two .. £400k plus p.a will make them non viable exports on these rwo products alone.
