If UNESCO only reports back to the Government then I'm not sure what's to stop the Government then sitting on the reply. We don't know if a reply has already been received, or indeed, as you say Sooz, what the question was. I feel Kurt could endeavour to find out directly from UNESCO if it has yet to respond, and whether then, we are now back to waiting on the Government only.

It's been a couple of months after all, for what shouldn't be a difficult or time consuming response from UNESCO.

Only my thoughts.

Thanks Pocko.

Ah 3card, but supposing young Greta were to find something that bothered her about our green Kal, even though there's nothing wrong with it at all. She is so high profile that the same would apply for any negative publicity for us. Being such a green, I doubt very much she'd consider upsetting the Sami.

Sooz is right, leave it to Kurt.

Toppy, you are right about the frustration, but we've become accustomed to it, so I guess it doesn't seem as bad, even though we continue to be treated disgustingly by the Swedish Government. Something with Kal must happen now that the application has been moved along though, and the Government officially outed by the KU as being inept in dealing with our case.

Only my thoughts.

Sooz, daft talk, hmmm, whatever gets us through this wait is good I reckon.

:-)

TPS, I don't think anyone was mocking crypto, more that you were slating BEM as being a joke, and we picked up on that. Our situation of this continual waiting is farcical, but the Company itself isn't a joke.

Great if you've made some money. Well done. The other stuff you mention is just talk between friends. No need to stir up ill feeling because things happen to have worked out for you.

Have a good day.

Pocko, yes, we need an outcome on the concession this year, in my view, or it's doubtful Kurt will be able to raise funds again on such a scale without the price set being more abysmal than the 3.16p. We have to trust that he will not completely turn his focus on to the other projects, that Kallak remains the primary concern. How long he gives the Government before he takes steps to protect our investment only he knows. We could do with knowing how long UNESCO is likely to take. All up in the air again, but we do at least know that our application has been moved along, thanks largely to the KU. I feel we need to be patient for a couple of months more. Eighth candle time, then we should really be given some answers. Kurt does have to manage our expectations.

Only a few thoughts.

Yes. I think a longer aft is important for feeling uppy. Lol.

I have been as up and down in spirits with this as anyone else who happens to have been invested here for a decade or more, and I don't mind negative comments at all. I've served up plenty of my own, but It's how they are put across that matters TSP. The gravity of the wording. To say that Kurt has been negligent is wholly inaccurate and misleading, in my opinion, and yes, I took exception to that. There is always room for improvement from a CEO, but in our case, Kurt has been the polar opposite of negligent. I've been through this before, but as the time does tick, he is being careful, while the Swedish Government digs itself a large hole. After all, he is acting on our behalf with the aim of doing business in Sweden. He has and continues to do everything to ensure that this happens, and our position in Sweden does not become untenable, which would be the case with persistently aggressive responses to Minister Baylan's inert display and those before him. We do not want to scupper the opportunity of being involved in the development of a world class project.

That's why, for example, our shareholders should be steering clear of posting unsavoury comments on Baylan's Twitter account.

These are my opinions TSP. I feel you've been quite irresponsible with some of your comments at times. Long-term holders here are investors in the Company and especially its Kallak project, belt and braces, and we must surely look at the finer elements in play if we can, and act accordingly.

Have a good evening.

Sooz, I appreciate your comments. Something not quite right going on here. I feel Treetop is on the right lines.

Afty. xx

Thanks lb.

Seems like you are still preaching. Talking at me won't wash Tak.

Thanks Treetop. That's a kind thing to have said. The long-termers on here have certainly helped me through some rough patches and wobbles, and Sooz seems to have tapped into my brain. Lol. In a good way.

Tak, please stop with the preaching. If you wish to stick up for someone who tried to rally people to spam Minister Baylan's Twitter feed and then who has irresponsibly described Kurt as being negligent, then you carry on. I stand by my post. I'm more than happy to defend my investment from the idiot element, and if I happen to be rude then there's a very good reason for it.

People who know me also know that.

Good day to you.

Exactly John. Good points well made.

Aaaaaaargh!

:-/

Have you read some of his posts? No, it wasn't over the top.

Well bugger off and do that then.

No, what you've said there is just wrong, in my opinion. He hasn't been negligent at all, he's been careful. The Swedish Government has involved UNESCO but without Kurt kicking up any fuss. It may seem bizarre that, but Kurt has let the Government back itself into a corner of its own making, but he has indicated that the UNESCO involvement was not a necessity. He has been clear without the bluster and without losing his rag, which works in our favour, and will do so down the road, if legal action is the only remaining option. What we didn't need was a hotheaded response to this latest delaying tactic. Kurt is being respectful, with a well measured response, at such a crucial stage.

In my opinion.

Spider crabs are ace. Not easy on the eye but they have their place.

Plaice. Lol.
