No, that is pretty much just you!

Money will never replace the loss of human life, a child, a mother, father or any.

Only a certain group of the population actually think like that. But don't worry, once your 'freedoms' have eroded, I'm sure you will find solace in that.

*nothing BUT to erode*

"The looney left will never support the British."

TBH, did not see the rubbish right do much either, unless you think draining the public coffers of £68B+ for the HS00 and £38b for 'track and trace' was 'save the British' agenda?

Not having a pop at you SF, but when you look at either side, one (who has been in control for 15 years) has done nothing to erode the UK and the other (Blair et al) just set the ground work for this.

No, you must not blame one side or the other, if you want to be objective and honest, you have to lay the blame at both. Only then will you realise that your government does not work for you, the people. Same in the US, but that can of worms is about to erupt too.

Sometimes you just have to continue to use a formula that works, instils confidence and communicates precise direction.

When companies try to 'shake things up' the market or investors don't really like that.

This is one of those times.

The marketing guys are probably behind this and 90% of the time they are clueless. Just trying to reinvent the wheel for the sake of it.

Clearly t he market is looking at this and not responding well.

Tufan had a clear objective, no messing around, got the job done, it is all becoming a little wishy washy right now.

@PM01, my comment was not directed towards you in anyway. Sorry if you felt it was.

I am beginning to think the RR has hit it's ceiling. It keeps getting to the 500 mark then traces back, over and over.

It's been a good run, but at some point it will stagnate, not sure if that point in now or a little bit further down the road.

But, as I have nothing better to do with my money right now, I'll leave it where it is and hope that SMR's take off and if they get push back then it may be time to move on. Until the US starts another war somewhere...

So basically whatever she touches it fails?

Got it.

RichieRich, in between. Not high tech, but defo underground with a toilet, ventilation and a heavy concrete reinforced steel door, same as the 'window'. With provisions storage.

And yes coffee for 6 months. Switzerland. You know, the same place that took gold teeth and never asked any questions back in the day.

Cev, with all due respect I bought into a airline engine builder and SMR tech. The war machine part of it is something I do not have a choice in, but you would know that. So gas light somewhere else bud.

@ RichieRich, yes I have a bunker, not paranoid, at least not about Russia. Part of the deal where I live, you had to build a house with a bunker, just in case. In reality it's to give the sheep a false sense of security.

larry, allow me to disagree.

putin is nuts, without doubt, but he is also in control of his emotions, not some lunatic going off half-****ed. trump went around threatening everyone, even insulting n.korea.

not retaliating is a sign of self-control. something we in the west to consider more often. i'm glad he does not go full bore when nato gets close, perhaps we should all be grateful for that?

the greatest threat to our civilisation will not come from the east.

i have a bunker, do you?

remember, we only get 'our' version of the truth.

worth remembering this too, when it comes to trust, salt and sugar both look the same...

Oh goody!!

Let us not blame Lammy (but yes!!) BoJo ran over to Ukraine in March 2022 when they were about to negotiate a peace deal and stopped it.

So both patsies are at fault. As for the US, when have they ever NOT been at war with someone else in the last 252 years?

So much for wanting a de-escalation.

War mongers to the right, war mongers to the left.

Old men that know each other, sending young men that do not know each other to die.

All for greed and control.

NTC- As someone that owned a 'blue' passport at one time, lived there for over 12 years and has a wife that is from that swamp let me make this very clear for all.

The US is ruled by fear and propaganda, how else do you control 370 million people? Unfortunately that MO is being applied and implemented across Europe and that includes the UK.

The truth is that every government is lying to their citizens and using them to fund their own lifestyles and big corp cronies.

Trump is a dishonest crook, but then the 'other side' is not much better. Two heads of the same coin. Spread fear and disinformation to further one's own agenda.

@markconner01, please show how you got to that figure, genuinely interested. Is that a guesstimate or actual calculations based on hours of research etc?

Thanks in advance.

Rectified immediately. And statement announced as much.

Planes never dropped from the sky.

Someone is not liking that RR is up, wants to keep the downward pressure on. Just my opinion in the wake of constant financial media negativity that has no merit.

@Badland, agree. Seems like the big money has taken any juice form this plum and now seems like a prune.

So easy to drop 1,2 or 3% yet struggles to climb higher.

This should be floating above the 500 mark, touching 515-525. Sentiment has changed.

AI controls the stock market with a few live humans gatekeeping. So no one really asses the fundamentals of a company.

IAG has finally broken the year high, but look how long that took!!

Perhaps it was put in place by the admin, to see the effects of this type of constant distraction, an experiment if you will. Remember, AI behaves very much like humans, except makes no sense sometimes.

I'm sorry but saying 'not to panic', after a 6%+ drop for no reason is about as useful as chewing bubble gum to solve algebra

So much for my optimism!!

Let's hope we climb without a hiccup as the yanks are out of the game today.
