EVRAZ got frozen, while RCIF UK, Terra Services, and Sberbanque de Russie — all Russian-linked — keep trading. Not luck. Not favoritism. Just reality.

ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Well, take En+ Group for a start — another big Russian-linked metals outfit that somehow managed to keep trading in London while EVR got put in the freezer instantly. And there were plenty of UK-registered companies flagged in the press for having directors or shareholders tied to sanctioned individuals, yet they apparently had some sort of ‘invisibility cloak’ when it came to government action.

No one’s saying those firms were guilty of anything — just that the government treated near-identical situations very differently. EVR got the full “instant freeze” treatment, while others with comparable exposure sailed on untouched thanks to ownership loopholes and slow-motion decision-making. But sure — totally consistent.

Bored now

GLASH,

Ah yes, of course — questioning the government’s selective sanctions must automatically mean I’m a secret Chamberlain fanboy from the 1930s. Spot on detective work there.

All I was pointing out is that the UK government froze EVR shareholders while letting other similar companies carry on untouched. That’s the “shafting.” It’s not exactly a wild conspiracy theory — just basic inconsistency.

But if raising that point now qualifies as rewriting 20th-century history, then I suppose I’ll go polish my imaginary Chamberlain memorabilia collection.

No matter how this plays out it was our own British Government that shafted us.

Maybe it will maybe it wont, if you want to support then feel free if not then no worries

To review sanctioned UK companies and for the UK Government to take a responsibility to compensate any UK Companies or UK Citizens where their actions have caused a financial impact (Pensions / Investments / Dividends).

Whilst we all wish for a quick and peaceful resolution to the conflict and for no one to be harmed,

The Government have a responsibility not to cause any hardship to their own be it a UK Company (tax paying) or a UK Citizen.

Worth a try

Its just another day ......

Not lost a thing yet as cant do bugger all and if i was the sort to panic i'd have sold long before and happy to ride the rough waters and see where we come out....

Am ****ed with our goverment tho as treating everyone like fools and clearly getting away with it be it kunf flu, parties or just pure circus act..............

lol i've been doing this once a week for last 6 weeks and asking for updates.....not expecting a thing as she herself has been sanctioned by Russia and her answer was........its a "badge of honour"

The same railway tracks and wheels that have carried many to safety

Have emailed local mp and press again to express this goverments incompetence

I know i'm only 1 but cant ever vote for this goverment again ever

I've heard back from both FCA and OFSI who have stated the decision was made by the goverment and nothing to do with them

Have to say i'm dissapointed, not even a mention of where they are at with the official letter they submitted...

And yet barring us and USA the rest of the world talk about it and then carry on trading with with them

probably going to make myself unpopular but hey ho......

Wrote to local MP asking is it fair that as a share holder in Evraz (an acknowledged registered Uk Company by LSE) my investments and pension pot has effectively been frozen whilst the goverment use the company as a vehicle to pursue certain individuals rather than the go after the individuals directly?

i also asked why was certain companies are being used yet others that senior officials have vested interests and yet have closer links with russian authoritys haven't been targted?

My Local MP has replied asking for further information so they can take this up in the house of commons.....

Yes i dont agree with whats going on in the Ukraine and feel for anyone caught up in the conflict or have lost loved ones, sadly this is also happening in other parts of the world just not being highlighted or being treated equally....

So feel free to let me know if theres anythng you'd like me to ask or points raised?
