I think the quoted price for Brent is for June contracts and previously it was May. So the price actually hasn't changed by as much.

RNS 19th March.

LLOG is just over 8% now and 70% of the shares have a 1 year lock up, so they cannot sell much of what they have left.

EIG also have a 90 day lock in on any further sales.

What did you put into AI to get this response?

Surely we should judge by successes rather than failures and most of the failures mentioned could reframed much more positively.

The OM case didn’t collapse because it lacked merit—it fell apart on a technicality, something that sits with the lawyers. Despite that, Rockhopper still turned the situation into a material gain by selling part of the award and taking out the insurance policy.

The Premier Oil situation was unfortunate, but it’s important to recognise what the team did achieve: Sam and the board successfully negotiated a farm‑in agreement not once, but twice. Many companies struggle to secure even a single deal of that scale—yet they managed to rebuild and secure a second partnership after the first one fell apart.

The tax issue is far from ideal, but the agreed repayment terms mean it’s unlikely to have a significant long‑term impact on the company’s position.

In short: you shouldn’t judge someone by whether setbacks occur, but by how effectively they respond to them. And on that measure, the track record looks far stronger.

It's not a rights issue

Rolf has literally listed the reasons why the number of students might have increased at Oxford without lowering standards.

Croft - yes, with an increased number of students, the median student would likely not be of the same standard, but that doesn't really address what I asked. You blamed blair, but where and when did most mps go to university for instance?

Who are these mediocre intellectuals who went to university after 1997?

I think 30/09/24 was the end date for Q3, the release date was in November

Interim result should be soon, probably Thursday. So they will probably mention it then, if they aren't going to put out an RNS specifically for this.

Hi Johnnyy,

1-in-8 vs 1-in-6 comparison is essentially a per-capita (pro-rata) approach. By comparing 12.5% of inmates to 16.7% of the population, I’ve already normalized for population size. Let me know if you mean something different.

1 in 8 in prisons foreign born versus 1 in 6 in the general population, so this simple fact would appear to show that foreign born people are less likely to be in prison.

I assume the difference in allocation is due to shares being held in a nominee account, where you are pooled together with all other shareholders with that broker, so the percentage will depend on what they all asked for?
