I tell you bros not the dinghy boat that is the big problem..

"There were 3,287,404 visas granted in the year ending June 2023, 58% higher than the year ending June 2022. This was primarily due to 889,821 (+96%) more grants of visitor visas, but also due to more grants for:

work visas (including dependants), up 208,295 (+63%) to 538,887

study visas (including dependants), up 165,968 (+34%) to 657,208, including sponsored and short-term students"...

Then you has the Ukraine migrants, Hong kong etc etc all invited to be coming here...

Morning Bros.

Migrants in boats is just the tip of the very big iceberg. 1in 3 babies born to mothers not born in the Uk , Now mostly from India. Hundreds of thousands of foreign students many with the dependents. porous borders and no national i.d required to access many services and benefits. Billions paid in child benefits and winter fuel allowances etc to people who do not live here and were not born here...

Slave trade. Nothing said about the Ottomans as an example and there vast slave trade in Europeans and that in many countries it still goes on today.

Same with Lloyds.

It is a tree in a forest which is overgrown stifling growth, even worse is the forest keeper ( our Govt)keeping the sick plants alive ..

It is the bigger picture which the Govt needs to sort and the rest will look after itself. You know what I am saying.

Driver stuck in traffic so looks like being a long day for me when he finally arrives.!!

"Congratulations to India on there moon landing, a great achievement, well done"..

Bros is best if they leave the moon lone.. USA will be sending the Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover, or the VIPER, this will land on the Moon’s south pole in late 2024.. Looking for the water. Its is intended to have people living on the moon.

What is the play...

You says yesterday..

"the Lloyds buybacks have added getting on for 7p per share value . Without them based on the current market cap, the share price would be that much lower."..

7p lower is 35p yes?

"Fakey

the reality is that Lloyds is trading at a little under 42p but as someone who doesn't live in a world of reality, it is understandable that in your world that Lloyds is at 39.5p"..

LTI He bossin it again...

Trouble is he says that the Sp would be 7p lower without the buy backs ...So in his real world LTI he price this at 35p..

You know what I am saying?

''I was under the impression that buy backs would increase the share price.''

This depends how its done..

Lloyds could have done the buyback as the tender offer at say 50p a share...for an allocated number of shares..

So they would be buying back exactly 4 million shares at a set price and as a holder you would be offered to sell part of your holding back at that price..

As it is this way is structured not to move the SP.

Gate Bros

for sure that won't be happening...

Treasury having to pay for the QE... Last month it transfer the record £14.3bn to the Bank of England (QE losses).

£30bn up in smoke in the past 11 months, Says ONS.

July sum £5.4bn more than forecast by the OBR in March.

GS patience. Getting good return on savings accounts.. I hold mostly cash. I wait and wait..

For sure the capital preservation is the key with any investing..

Anyone tell you otherwise, more they the fool..

L&G had a10% outflow.

Trouble is that the world economy is still in a mess.

The two pillars China and the Usa are collapsing under the debts.

The US is being also consumed by drugs. If In doubt . live police cam from kensington. Many more towns and cities similar..

Respect.. He says about the Rouble losing values... If this is true I do not know but I hear a rumour that the drop in value has caused concerns at the Westminster. So much so they are now only taking bungs in £ sterling. You knows what I am saying?

I am adding.

in 2022 a £1,000 bonus was paid to its "rank and file staff" as it is described at a cost of £64 million. ( cost of living bonus)

So who getting the almost half billion bonus which I guess comes in the form of the free shares adding to the float and negating almost a quarter of the buys back?... You know what I am saying..

LTI

Respect

"''Staff bonus pool''

there are about 59,000 staff..

----------------

For sure bros but that number is down from well over 100,000 a decade ago. So more money to less staff as a bonus.. For what.?

Yes that is for sure. A lot of public sector pensions was moved onto the "lower" inflation rate. ( CPI)

Sleight of hand move by the Govt. Along with the raise in pension age and for the Equitable life lot just filed in the do not disturb drawer...As for the WASPI ladies?

Govt crafty as they say "a wagon load of monkeys"...
