CaveatEmptors. I'm sure that you will be first to congratulate me, should I actually end up making money here!

I thank you, and Sir Keir, for your interest!!!

If HARL doesn't publish it's 2023 Financial Report, all the company's financial dealings remain "hidden" from public view. How about they publish them in order that us shareholders can see if JW, AR, and the British Government played us for fools?

Good morning, All. I know nothing about financing a company, but it seems to me, with hindsight, that JW & AR deliberately over extended the company finances to ensure that the shareholders get nothing.

Why might they do this?

Because members of our recent governments "encouraged" them to do so!

Looks like we have been busted in order to become showcase Nationalised Industry, purchased for the Tax Payer for a £1.

Fortunately, I know nothing, so there might, in "reality" be some hope for us

GLA

Scilly Ferries and the inflation busting pay deal likely increased the company's liabilities by circa £20 million. Interestingly, £20 million seems to have been required to bust us and Nationalise us?!?

Hmmm.....?

IMO too much seems to have happened in too short a time for our fate not to have decided weeks/months ago. The FT seems to have been in on this for a week or three.

Let's see what Monday, and the next act in the Play brings, but don't rule out another media "scoop" in the morning!

Nite All

I warned that this share might go the same way as Deep Verge, i.e. accounts not submitted in time, followed by suspension, and sale for $1, with all financial transactions hidden from public view.

The only reason I didn't bail out was because I trusted John Wood not to screw us over. However, the pantomime "ousting" of HARL's CEO makes me think that he might actually have been in on this as he isn't likely to lose a single penny of his own cash on whilst he's still on the company payroll.

Millions were "conveniently" wasted on Scilly Ferries and the inflation busting pay rises, paving the way nicely for Nationalisation for circa $1.

The implications of this are that JW, Arun Raman, a few Tory MPs, Kevan Jones and a few Labour MPs, plus a smattering of GMB union Leaders have led us PIs along the garden path to oblivion.

There are a few questions we will likely never know the answer to:

- Whether Labour, the Tories, the Lib Dems are one big private club that have secret meetings where they plan scenarios, like this one, years in advance?

- Whether JW deliberately overspent over the last 12 months to bust the company?

- Whether the Tory government encouraged JW to overspend over the last 12 months, with the "unwritten" promise that the loan guarantee was a shoein, in order to bust the company?

The only positive out of such a scenario is that most of the current workforce should keep their jobs!!!

Right, that's definitely me done here for the foreseeable.

Only a couple of glasses of wine for me, unfortunately. Got to be up early tomorrow.

Night All - FG is leaving the building!

Hi Mary. Let's hope that you are right and that I'm wrong!

The globalist tag team have only just changed faces and the people of the United Kingdom are already suffering. It's just my opinion, but I sense, from what I hear, that the Deplorables have had enough of the charade being played out in front of their eyes!

I hope that you have a great weekend.

Methinks, that's me done posting here for the foreseeable!

All the best,

FG aka Joe

1,500 jobs in jeopardy, and Labour, the "protectors of the working people" have only just gotten started!

First CarpetRight, now Harland & Wolff. Who's next?

I watched a bit of this AI remastered video - Adolf Hitler AI Reconstructed Audio "Freedom or Slavery" last night and noticed this if you remove referenced to "People from Israel" and replace them with "Global Elite" - not much seems to have changed in the World!

I might have lost a lost of money today, but I haven't lost my job or self respect.

Methinks the "elite" are mocking us and might soon, in spite of their technology, be in for a huge shock!

IMO it makes for very interesting viewing!!!

Driftwood. Might Kevan Jones's old union have helped push HARL over the edge with the huge "pay rise" it achieved for its workers? If so, it was all part of the plan.

I wonder how many of the 1,500 families of HARL workers will be sleeping easy tonight?

Might Kevan Jones, a few senior Union Bosses, a couple of Tories, and maybe a few "Late Evening entertainers" be in one of the House of Common's bars drinking subsidized Champagne, as I type these words, celebrating the destruction of a little bit of British Industry?

Hi Mary,

Thank you! Very much appreciated!!

All the very best

FG - aka - Joe

Now I'm off out for my Birthday.

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

Xenor. Sounds like a technicality to me

But hopefully you are correct, and I guess you are, in which case Riverstone might actually help us out of this mess?!?

I suppose a lot rests on how embedded the political class is in our demise!

Nextyearrodders. The problem is that the Tories and Labour appear to have engineered our downfall between them.

Riverstone are unlikely to lose a penny, and they've already made very many millions in interest.

I wouldn't be surprised if we end up getting bought by Serco for about a dollar. Many in our political class likely have their snouts in this particular trough!!!

Hi BC. What a crap day it has been. Looks like the Tories and Labour screwed us. But who knows, somehow, hope beyond hope, we don't lose our money here!

No doubt the vultures will keep circling until they are sure of picking our bones clean!

How you have a great weekend. The Sun is shining!

All the best, Ickey

Hi 12Roses. Sorry to hear that AIM has smashed us both on the rocks. I'm a fool, I nearly ditched all my AIM shares a year ago and taken the loss. More fool me! I'm afraid that I'm very likely going to see where the wind blows the rest of my "investments"!!

Good luck to you!!!

All the best, FG

Hi Chris. I new record loss for me, if we loss the lot - circa £50K.

We live and learn!!!

Just to thank all the LTHs who held the faith and who, in the main, made many valuable contributions to this message board!

Unfortunately, it just goes to show, no matter how much knowledge and insight you have about a company, things can still go belly-up if you don't have Lady Luck on your side!

Let's hope that there's still money to be made here. Who knows, this time next year, Rodders!
