Agreed or try the Lloyds board as that is a complete zoo

Matey if you think you come on here to learn anything useful about LLoyds PLC, its financial position or prospects you are very much mistaken. Look elsewhere.

at £3 this am. Not a huge amount, but the second tranche I have bought since we fell from grace. Here's hoping that old Rico is not gambling with his buys today and knows he is backing a winner long term. Also the divi is very welcome in the meantime.

If there is a GE or a second Brexit vote the amount of mailing involved will be a massive boost to the bottom line at RMG! Gallows humour or what.

Not great news from the MYSTIC trial they are putting a gloss on it but essentially the combination therapy has failed to meet its primary endpoint of improving overall survival versus standard treatment.

Told you there was no hurry to dive in on this and buy more. If Gove resigns there will be more blood on the carpet and UK-facing shares will tank again.

says take May's deal as the only near term solution to a possible industrial meltdown.

No need to rush in as XDD is 6th Dec. I would prefer to see some signs of life before increasing my position and the political climate is so febrile that a govt collapse or a no confidence vote could depress prices even further.

I see that all dollar earners are up on the fall of sterling while most domestic facing companies are tanking.

Who says there will be a WTO to trade under? If Trump has his way the WTO will be dismantled along with UNESCO, the UN and NATO. Trump, the new emperor Nero, fiddling while Rome burns!

Be careful what you wish for. This cluster**** could see the Tory's out of office for a generation.

Worth a watch although I am in danger of agreeing with someone because the story is so damn positive! Does that make me a rabbit?

I thought salad cream went out of fashion in the 1970's? Don't seem to be able to find any in Waitrose

Reports greeted positively in the main except for the BBC, where they chose to highlight the negatives.

Morningstar: Vodafone Group specifically represents one of the cheaper European names on an uncertainty-adjusted, price/fair value basis; and currently trades at about a high-teens discount to it's fair value. "Nichols expects revenue growth will be driven by a combination of improved results in Europe, owing to gains in convergence and higher data usage – helped by the end of mobile termination rate cuts – and continued growth from emerging markets, particularly Turkey and Vodacom in Africa. Nichols believes Vodafone has a narrow economic moat due to cost advantages and efficient scale.

Maybe they are seeing it as evidence of problems at the top? Old Rico is clearly taking a firm grip of the operation as he will assume her duties. Time will tell if this is a kneejerk market reaction to board level change even if that proves to be a positive.

Very sensible indeed as the last thing you want is another of the outsourcing parasites like Capita or G4S managing that kind of operation and ripping you off left right and centre. Full marks to management on that one!

Derby’s Rolls-Royce is celebrating after securing a deal with a Chinese airline worth almost £850 million to supply and maintain aero engines. China Eastern Airlines has signed an agreement with the engineering giant for Trent XWB engines that will power a new fleet of 20 Airbus A350-900 aircraft.The contract also includes a TotalCare package, which will see Rolls-Royce maintain the engines throughout their service life.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Looks more like £30 rather than £25 at the moment :-)
