"Trojan- yes we must continue to fund an unwinnable war - collapse our economy and kill millions more - u know it makes sense !"

I am convinced that sheepherder and Bloomers_Blower are the same person.......both spouting the same rhetoric on the same issues........climate change and Ukraine war.

"Yeah hardup cause he can't even get to Kiev"

He can't get to Kiev because of the support Ukraine has received from NATO members supplying arms, intelligence etc.

"Hitler. Hitler was in France after just 7 years in power."

And without NATO Putin would have been in France 23 years ago.

"Hardup Churchill had served in the front line in ww1 as penance for the Gallipoli."

I am fully aware of that, but that is not what I asked you is it. I asked you if Trump or Putin had ever served on the front line in any conflict.

I don't see what he is wearing as being dressed as a soldier, and that was not implied by the reporter. By the way, have Trump or Putin ever fought in front lines? Winston Churchill attended such meetings with Roosevelt and Stalin dressed in a boilersuit and no one ever criticised him.

No doubt in my mind that press call yesterday at the White House was a stage managed choreographed stitch up by Trump and his team to publicly humiliate Zelensky live on TV to the whole world. Before Trump and Vance tore him to pieces, a reporter who was standing behind Trump asked Zelensky why he was not appropriately dressed for the occasion stating that he should be wearing a suit for such occasion, and saying coming dressed as he was was a sign of disrespect to the Trump administration.

Trump and Vance's conduct can only be described as despicable!!

Exactly Gate. Trump and Vance trying to intimidate and bully Zelensky to fall in line with what they DECIDE he should do!

At the Trump/Starmer press call after their meeting, a reporter asked Trump if he still thought Zelensky was a dictator. Trump replied "Did I say that? I don't believe I said that."

"What a great day! Lloyds rocketing"

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't Lloyds SP is down from yesterdays close?

I would be surprised with the spike up in SP today if any shares have been purchased for the buyback. Soon find out.

FWIW

Barclays raises Lloyds Banking price target to 90 (80) pence - 'overweight'

"Currently 4.71% up across the pond!"

I wonder if we see a spike in SP when market opens today? After UK markets closed LYG share price rose in US from $3.46 to close at $3.55. At the current exchange rate of 1.26 that equates to a share price of 70.43p.

67S......Yes, I had not changed the formula to calculate % of 1.7B instead of 2B. All sorted now.
