Keep up my little red friend.

A plan b had already been agreed by the commission following pressure from France, Germany and Spain, amongst others.

This will not involve a rewrite of the Brexit agreement but will fix the major issues. (A commission cave in).

Why do you think so many car and battery manufacturers are committing to the UK?

I know it's disappointing for you, but stiff upper lip, eh?

"UK car production jumped 31.6% YoY to 91,521 units in October 2023, marking the eighth month of growth this year"

"Output increased for both domestic and export markets, with production for the UK up 23.5% to 16,178 units and overseas shipments rising 33.4% to 75,343 units. Exports to the EU increased 58.5%, accounting for almost two-thirds of overseas shipments."

But but but, I thought we couldn't trade with the EU after Brexit...............

The future is bright, the future is Brexit !!

Need you say anything at all?

A fund manager named Crooke.

Sounds about right.

"Not only that, if Labour do get in, it will be because the majority of the country voted them in thinking they can't do any worse? Time will tell I suppose"

The point is, whenever an incoming labour government takeover, it's when the country has been through a tough period and is just coming out the other side. The only reason we had austerity was because of labour's out of control budgetary deficit.

Remember "there's no money left". ??

Labour will get a max 40% of the vote in a ge, similar to the Tories last time out. No party EVER gets a majority of the vote.

The only time a clear majority has been achieved in a national vote, was the Brexit referendum. It would be nice if those who will happily accept a Labour government on 40% of the vote, would finally accept the Brexit result, which was comfortably more than 50%, i.e an actual majority.

Yes, Bebold,

And Labour will march into No.10 to c k u f it all up again.

It happens every time.

I did say "from 2025"..

If 2026 was a typo, that in turn reduces the % increases for subsequent years, surely, to below 10%.

Anything less than 20% dividend growth p.a. is disappointing to me, particularly with pathetic sp performance.

Lloy are printing money, almost literally.

Shareholders should, imo, get better returns of cash than that forecast.

(Yes, I'm aware buybacks are a return of capital, I refer to dividends).

I don't tend to link inflation rates with dividend returns.

That's more related to high street savings rates imo.

I'm sure you can work it out yourself but from 2025, it's a reduction in the dividend, followed by 10% increase for the following 2 years.

If sp growth is substantial over this period, fine, but if it continues as it is now, then the dividends need to be better than that. Otherwise what's the point?

I wouldn't.

Quite poor % increases.

Pushing it a bit to call that progressive.

Fingers crossed for a healthier return.

"I totally agree with the observation about xenophobic, bitter twisted Tories using this board to moan about the current government"

Yearner,

People who actually want to control our borders are not bitter, twisted xenophobes.

Just ordinary people with valid concerns.

It's socialist m u p p e t s like you that are happy for all and sundry to come here by any means possible.

Good luck reaching retirement age !!

I'm afraid 'short term' is already firmly in the rear view mirror.

"He should have sent her to Rwanda"

Why? She's not an illegal immigrant, coming from a safe, 1st world country!

She was born in the UK, to parents of Indian heritage who came here legally.

Good to see you're coming round to the idea of Rwanda though.

Your grasp of political history,(and, btw, reality) is non existent.

Cameron didn't start the process of Brexit, your war criminal hero Tony Blair did.

As soon as he allowed the 7 eastern European accession states in to the UK early, the process started.

Note that it was white Europeans that made up the accession states.

Brexit was nothing to do with racism or xenophobia, it was about control and self determination.

Do us all a favour, read more, and post less.

Anticipation of inflation figures maybe?

What a waste of a life.

Seriously, it's tragic.

Anyone who thinks the current UK economic situation is unique to our country, and is solely down to Brexit, is an intellectual dwarf who should have access to the internet supervised.

Most, if not all states in the EU, are worse off than the UK and the eurozone itself will soon be in recession.

Brexit taints the views of some to the extent that they'll completely ignore facts, and spout their nonsense ad nauseum.

What did your last slave die of?

Read the damned thing and it tells you !

Or can't you bring yourself to read anything that destroys anti Brexit rubbish ?
