You might be correct on Putin being ousted particularly if he has to go into hospital for a cancer operation but I personally can't see general mobilisation as it would lead to mass discontent. In any case Dmitri Peskov today seemedto be dismissing it as nonsense.

Putin cancer rumours grow amid signs of ill health, as ‘insider’ report suggests he could hand over power
Experts are keenly watching Vladimir Putin’s public appearances for further signs of ill health, amid rumours attributed to a Kremlin insider that the Russian president is due to undergo surgery, possibly for cancer.

The rumours appear to have originated with the hugely popular Russian Telegram channel General SVR, which claimed that Mr Putin’s doctors have warned him the surgery might incapacitate him for “a short time”, and that during this period the president will briefly hand over the reins of power to an aide.

There has been no official confirmation regarding Mr Putin’s alleged ill health — the Kremlin has not commented on the reports, either to confirm or deny them — but recent videos and pictures showing him shaky, fidgeting and puffy-looking have fuelled speculation that the 69-year-old may be suffering from one of a number of conditions including dementia, Parkinson’s or cancer, Shweta Sharma writes.

Putin cancer rumours grow amid signs of ill health: What we know
Amid rumours that Putin is planning to take a temporary leave of command due to ill health, experts are anticipating a big announcement on Russia’s 9 May ‘Victory Day’

No dividends is a small price to pay for having now left the worst behind it and for being on a firm financial footing moving forwards.

I don't need to read up on anything.

MASD is the principle that applies to the trigger puller for they seal their own fate by doing so the response is inevitable and known. Pertains to the trigger puller only
MAD is where it would applies to both.

In essence nobody wins, hence the deterrence.

Now lets get back to talking about POLY which keeps churning out godl prouction at near normal rates and which CMC markets thinks there is over 500% upside on resolution of the conflict.

Just in case you didn't believe me on the subs.

EasiWynns you need to read up on the key principle of deterrence which is "mutually assured self destruction", understand also what Nato is all about, and who within has nuclear capability. Also understand that those Nato countries with submarines ICBM's have already slipped out of dock into the vast oceans of this world. A UK and US one both berthed in Gibralter just the other week and weren't there for a holiday. One side may threaten but they know full well what the consequences would be. Hence threat and then pullback.

May 9th anything could happen, then again nothing might happen. Orban is saying things will end on 9th May. I'll be holding with a calculator by my side if it does.

On the one hand you have some saying a declaration of war (has it ever been anything else?) and a supposed general mobilisation on May 9th but on the other hand Orban seems to think May 9th will be the end date. So just as easily VP could be a pushing to seize and consolidate what they can prior to May 9th and then he announces it as being over and announce the special operation as a success. Then he goes and has his operation.

I just think you have to be open to any and all permutations.

Where will the share price be heading if he does announce an end?

Hungarian presidents comments and probably most aligned to Russia out all of the EU countries.

Unfortunately the CEO has to fall on his sword for this one.

Progress is being made, but too slow imho and cost of living headwinds are prevailing and already impacting.

Sorry to say it but the market reaction is correct here.

The saving grace is that the Cash position at £11M is circa the same as last time so the cost cutting may be working.

Actually it's the 9th June.

I'd probably put my money on Blackrock or an associate fund.

The Pope is offering to intervene

Just to highlight the converse of what you just did sj74.

I am pointing out to you that it is a persons view who is not involved in the negotiations or one of the key decision makers. Please read the article before you post it and start a thread as you have. despite what you say you are an anon poster on the bulletin board and the thread title tells me all I need to know. Let me show you the opposite effect.

"The official noted earlier in the interview that President Volodymyr Zelensky’s office handles the talks and not the NSDC."

You're better than that.

sj74 did you care to read the article. The comments come from someone who has nothing to do with the negotiations.

"The official noted earlier in the interview that President Volodymyr Zelensky’s office handles the talks and not the NSDC."

You're better than that.

If the EU implements what they are inferring after Wednesday then the focus will fall back onto pending Energy crisis and alternative forms to fill the void.

6th June

CSD yip I think they are after crossing the 5th May ex-dividend date.

As stated, it's academic for me for I am holdingnow, will be on the 5th May and still will be in August.

War over and share price back to £12-£15 then there should't be any reason for not paying all or most of an over 15% FY dividend.

CSD - It looks like £3 million pounds is betting against you.

Seemed like a very different feel about the trading here today compared to last week.
