Not falling out of love with online shopping but falling out of love with cheap, wear-once fashion. Not sure Boo's business model is ready for clothes with "legs" so to speak

"Credible audit firm" ....are any of them credible?

but not Dampier...who skipped out fairly sharpish.

woodford goes around suitably barefaced and shaven...Dampier hiding his brass neck behind his bumff...?
Any clues as to why his wife sold out of Woodford the night before Woodford shuttered??

silly question but how, if LLOY had an NAV of 63p 12/21. is this trading below 60p?

ooh, lend lease again?

Vested interests do not want this war to end quietly...NATO given a reason for existing...Macron wanted shot of it before this blew up, defence industry unlikely to encourage end of this and Biden??

phasing out of reliance on Russian oil and gas is a European/USA issue...perhaps, less Eurocentric view would be wiser; I note India isn't holding back nor China.

good to see some more coverage except the "tide is not always flowing"...if the tides stop, we will be adrift in the universe somewhere..

buybacks are not helping...if LLOY wanted a better share price, they could start by paying a better dividend..since the have so much cash to slosh around in buybacks.

The purpose of buybacks is to avoid increasing dividends...

someone (a think tank !!!ha) complained about London Stock Exchange allowing private investors to speculate with their tiny wealth on the dead duck POLY...bizarrely same bunch were v. quiet about THG, ROO, WOODFORD etc where retail investors lost so much of their tiny wealth.

it's got a long way to go for me to breathe a sigh of relief.

unfortunately, there appears little enthusiasm for a peace deal on either side...US consumers fairly isolated from food price inflation unlike the rest of the world so Biden happy to keep supporting Ukraine.

deloitte resigns because of repuational damage?
Poly may have problems finding an accountant which isn't already reputationally damaged

I did mean Huntertson...sorry ! was thinking of Fairlie

France's response as a measure of urgency has been for EDF to ask households this week to keep heating to 19 degrees, not to use any washing machine/dishwasher/tumble dryer etc before midday. etc etc..and interestingly, France's electricity is 75%nuclear..so I guess France is exporting electricity like crazy.
BTW the cost of living crisis is thanks to sanctions.
no-one likes Simec's involvement with Atlantis, Simec is Gupta's dad's company supposedly , nothing to do with Gupta! Sturgeon handed Scotland's hydroelectric plant on a plate to Gupta in exchange for his taking on steel company that's why she is keeping so schtum and she okayed the closing of Fairley nuclear plant said she was waiting for better nuclear technology !

listened to BBC inside science last week about renewables...point was made that solar and wind are not reliable but at no point did they discuss tidal; 100% agree SAE should get some proper PR.

ITV is fast approaching size of a St Bernard.....excellent idea, not, that they should take on 4.

venkat more likely hiding...who was Chief Risk Officer when Barc exceeded limits in USA???
