Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Fleccy, to use your words, the problem is, at the moment it is just a big story, with nothing really new except the mention of BT making preparations, DT are sticking to the no real comment approach and the news about BT making preparations is based on rumour as far as I can make out. We will all find out soon enough that something is obviously going to happen nearer the time. It is a shame that the current government mine is bigger than yours argument is, or may not be happening around the same time.
Casshy, good luck with your cheeky investment, be sure to check with Lambwad in future, he gets green eyed and jealous at the thought that someone has £11k to play with. Poor lad would shit a brick if he knew how much some of us have invested, and he would burst a varicose vein if he found out that some people earn much more than £11k in dividend returns alone. Damn paupers.
NDNIC00, you mean your not subscribed, and you want someone else to copy and paste for you, there are laws against plagiarism, if your curious, as I strongly suspect you are, cough up and subscribe. Its a interesting read if you like gossip, hype and proper propaganda you will absolutely love it.
Knigelk,
Mayhem definition = a situation in which there is little or no order or control. Same as usual then?
I was thinking Chaos may have been a better choice of word, however,
Chaos definition = complete disorder and confusion, well that more or less describes the current situation.
Lets try a bit of late 1970's good old fashioned Anarchy,
Anarchy definition = absence of government and absolute freedom of the individual, regarded as a political ideal
Anarchy would appears to be on its way.
Aus more importantly I see that China are going to grow Potatoes on the moon, as for American Commercial interests being backed by the White House, no change there, business as usual really. As for trump bashing and name calling, whats he done that concerns or affects you, or is this just another wagon to jump on, blame the Americans for Brexit and BT share price?
Aus, the pension is sustainable, and the debt is being paid, thats old news dead and buried, the way I see it is the "business" failed miserably at managing the pension, and now want to make the current wage earners and future pensioners pay for the piss poor management mistakes of the past, present and future, do some research and you will see that many of the top brass are set to receive more in their first 6 months of drawing their pension than a Openreach engineer would earn over a 50 year career, yet in the same breath they are saying they are making the changes to be "fair and achievable". I say go squeeze out some more hide and seek management, start scrapping that copper, get people on customer service desks that speak understandable English and also understand English, and leave the people that do the actual work alone for a few years. The "Business" trying to squeeze every last drop of life and earnings out the older employees has very little to no bearing on the daily ups and downs of the "Business" share price. The general consensus on the interwebs is that everybody hates BT and Openreach for many reasons, they don't get any love when they do get it right either. Jansen may be the saviour, we will have to wait and see.
Why not ask the affected staff how much tax free cash they would accept to change it, £25000 a head would be a fair price, when they turn it down and offer £750 , give the fat union jerks something to do, perhaps accept a final accepted offer of £20000 and jobs a good one. Not sure why they haven thought of this already? That would probably have been cheaper to do than going to court twice, or three times including the next rejection.
Here is a quick video of the Huawei production line workers going to work, you cant see inside the plant as that is all top secret, its very interesting, they take their jobs very seriously and are never late and dont miss any appointments, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVTQRRnpMgc
Spying? you all realise that every form of communication is monitored worldwide 24/7 365, I suspect this is more to do with US retribution for undercutting the world when it comes to manufacturing costs. Reading the reports regarding Huawei equiptment in BT network at present I gather that will stay, but they will be removing it from their current mobile sites and wont be using it for their 5G network, its important to follow what your major allies dictate to you, the rest is called propaganda and you can see how it works by watching the fear and discontent caused,why it even floods out on this forum for example, last week Huawei wasn't a issue, one BBC news report later and now everybody told the CEO years ago that bla bla bla.
Jeramiah, this site is fairly good (when its right), http://poundf.co.uk/bt-share-price-forecast , it obviously cant foresee the impossible unpredictable and crazy interventions that tend to cause issues that have cropped up in bulk in the last 5 years or so, however I think it is off the hook for a little while.
If I recall correctly I must have had twenty to thirty (plus all the didn't make it past the end of the week "look at the size of my gold chest medallion" managers) "Managers" they came and went, all the same, softly softly at first, then the crack the whip and do things my way or the highway kicks in, I worked in the same department making the same suggestions over and over again, I made the same innovative ideas and suggestions with each new manager, I got rewarded 8 times for the same bloody idea by 8 different managers, it all boiled down to Diesel engines are the future, well all those short sighted imbeciles are gone along with the R&D, and my job is dead and buried. The company was rigged because it worked hand in hand with big petrol and chemical company's, they simply would not profit from cars that used electricity. Management held back and restricted everything just to stick to the well trodden golden path that lead to there bonus. I loved my job and was good at it, nothing really changed from 1980 onward, just tinkered and developed the same old money earner so the chumps got there Bonus.
Well I cant see Prospect and CWU working together to stop any backlash, the people in the CWU are people that do the work, and the people that are in Prospect come to work to manipulate the workforce statistics and stop them spending any money regardless of how it affects people that use the company's service for one reason only, to reach their own bonus payments and keep their company cars! That's the way I see it, I came from a very large corporate background with over twice as many people that BT employee and that is exactly how it was setup. Large air-conditioned offices full of fat lazy self important people that had never done a days work in their lives.
Anybody? anything but The Boring Brexit Bull-Shite, you have left it a bit late for discussion gentleman, its a case of what will be will be from now on and you get what your given. However you voted you will reap the benefits once the country opens for business after the initial 3-6 month apocalyptic scenario of book burning and window smashing has finished.
