If, the FT article is pure fantasy. It would imply that the owner/editors of the FT care not a jot about the mental health of well over a thousand HARL workers. Whom one assume ls are going to be extremely worried about their livelihoods!

Yeah. Sure!

how about assuming that the ft is full of ****?

harl are going to be in constant comms with riverstone. might this have been worded, quite, deliberately, as crisis talks?

somebody wants sir john out as the price to pay for his vision in saving the company. any takers on kevan jones?

I've copied the following paragraph:

There is some unhappiness in the new Labour government about what they see as the underperforming H&W management, which is led by Wood.

Methinks Sir John should have made Kevan Jones a non-executive Director!

No doubt Labour will insist a woman takes the helm. How's about Diane Abbot?

This makes for an eye catching headline:

Titanic maker Harland & Wolff seeks fresh loan as it fights for survival

Shipbuilder in emergency talks with Wall Street backer Riverstone

The accounts better be signed-off, else we are in Deep Verge territory. Where the company can be sold for £1 without any scrutiny of the company value or where Sir John, Arun and Co. might possibly have trousered a few million between them!

I have every expectation that Sir John isn't a common all garden crook and the accounts will see the light of day!!!

Might Keir Starmer be saying that the Tories didn't let the people of the United Kingdom leave the totalitarian EU, and now he'd going to place back under the yoke of enslavement to the Power Elite?

Only yesterday, Reeves announced greater powers to an unelected, inept, Office for Budget Responsibility, further eroding the sovereignty of our "elected" Parliament. We can all see the game - One World govt that will be the "unelected" United Nations. Might global famine, etc, soon follow?

Well, I suppose that none of this matters, but the "elite" will do as the "elite" does, and we have very little say in the matter!

HARL appears to have sailed into the relative calm of the eye of a political storm.

It might need Knight's move (chess analogy) to get us out of it!

Hi Taverham. Thanks!

ATB, FG

Might Babc0ck International Group, etc, do a nice line in brown paper bags?

The Hydrogen Economy is a corporatist Globalist "elite" fantasy, but it will make many of them even richer as untold Trillions are spent on it.

Of course,vit will be no skin off my nose if HARL get IM off the back of Hydrogen!

There's no arguing with the price of Gold. This project becomes more economically viable by the day!

Hi BC. We all like to Party. Why not have two of them?

ATB, FG

One presumes that the "Whitehall Source" who told the Financial Times “Giving the loan guarantee would be deeply irresponsible.” was a cleaner or some such employee?!?

UK standards slip ever faster. It started with the Politically Correct movement and is ending in inept neo-Marxism!!!

Think Hydrogen, Think Hindenburg!!!

Hydrogen is a chemical engineering reagent, NOT a fuel for cars or houses!

Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!

Methinks that the LTHs will be having the last laugh!!

The £1.20 Party here we come!!!

How about Sir John issue an RNS confirming that Atlantic Wolff sails on Monday - rain or shine - whilst we wait on "Will she/Won't she" to pull her finger out and give us the decision we, the workforce, and the markets have been waiting for?

IMO - the most telling bullet point!

The Company was informed in December 2023 that the EDG facility had been approved and was subject to a commercial rate review and final ministerial consent. An announcement was made on that basis with the consent of Government. The Company has not been informed by Government that it has withdrawn its approval for the EDG facility.

So, might uber-Globalist Jeremy Hunt have purposely held this up? Might uber-Globalist Jeremy Hunt want to weaken the UK's Royal Navy? Isn't uber-Globalist Jeremy Hunt's wife CHINESE?
