Tories as the next HMG ? Cannot believe anyone thinks this is an option. IMO question is what will Labour do next, how will they manage the telecoms industry. Will they nationalise BT OpenReach ? Cheap broadband for low income families ? Etc et al ...
So much good news ! Must be time for a cash raise. Over last 3 years, recall 6p, 6p, 5p, 4.7p, 3.55 and 3p. What/when next ?
Looking at the weekend articles in Mail about Marc Allera's future strategy, was interested to see that BT consumer services to be rebranded as EE as of this week. More surprisingly, that EE is to take on Curry's and Amazon as supplier of consumer electrical goods, that EE is to become a one-stop shop encompassing multiple subscriptions into one. I'm no Queen but is this reality ? Or is this just fantasy ? Does BT/EE really stand a chance of achieving this ?
Would have expected the BOD of any company where minority shareholder announces that they are considering a public offering to have something to say about it, but not a peep. Maybe, like me, they see no point in commenting on grounds the replacement government expected in new year is unlikely to promote wider share ownership, so chances of a public share sale are literally zero.
I'm a NWG shareholder, get me out of here. Wonder what Nigel will say about this tonight ...

No beer ? IMO should keep the smaller breweries open. Wychwood (home to Hobgoblin) next to go, excuse being 'By making use of the break clause in our lease for Wychwood Brewery, we can consolidate our brewing network to achieve greater efficiency and productivity, supporting ongoing investment in our people and business'. So efficient there is not enough beer to go around. Do not believe Hobgoblin brewed elsewhere will taste the same.
Damn, hot weather means there is not a single empty table in pub garden, and inside is rammed (not Youngs). To make matters worse, they have sold out of Pedigree on pump, thank god there are some bottles. Told by bar staff that scorching September, which is expected to continue over weekend, has ignited the blue touch paper and saved summer after wet August. Excellent news...
