''grateful for other people's children to pick up a rifle and defend us''

Only have children if you are confident that you will always be able to afford to do so, without expecting tax payers to pick up the tab

''a single mum, with three children, on benefit, can get the money to fix the broken washing machine. I don't mind alternative views as long as they are thought out.''

Only have children if you are confident that you will always be able to afford to do so, without expecting tax payers to pick up the tab - get rid of child benefit - get rid of child care benefits . Look after your own children yourself.

''changed their views about anything in the history of mankind?''
'' there is reality and there is delusion.''

The reality is that there have been many posts on here along the lines -
'yet another U turn by the Tories'

NO

a relatively new investment for me - a little over 3 years.
Made 19 trades so far, the first at about 367p and the last purchase in October at 242.5p.
My last trade (my only sale) was quite recently.

I will retain a large holding here for the foreseeable future. With future trades I have no doubt that I will be increasing my yield into double digits on retained shares, even if HFEL never increased the dividend again. I don't consider a profit is made until more has been received from sales than the cost of retained shares, so before that, any sale if made above an average price would simply be reducing my average on retained shares.

I never look at total return for a stock - I keep total income for my portfolio and capital values/cost for each of my portfolio stocks separate . My aim with Hfel would be the same as any other stock - trade to reduce average capital costs of retained shares at the same time receiving dividends that the fund wishes to make.

Any investor seeking income should be content with receiving getting on for 9% at the current price, with any dividend and share price increases simply being a bonus.

'T'here'd have been far less than half my posts without your and your buddies foolishness.''

''I have posted far less of late. You are making me think it's maybe time to ramp up again.''

How gullible do you think people are?
Apparently I have been filtered most of the time by you. Could you STOP LYING for once and make it 100% permanent.

''22,000 spread bet and technical advice on buybacks please. We need far more of those.''

Must be at least 17.000 having to respond to anti democratic remoaners for over 6 years and more recently the Anti vaccine conspiracy nut cases.
The rest has been spread over many boards, having a portfolio of 35 stocks unlike yourself not having shares at all.

'' the FTSE 100 closed at a 4 year high on Friday.''

and that's with the pound being much stronger against the US dollar than a few months ago when the ftse was getting on for 900 points lower

If you look at the chart going back 30 years you can see what a fantastic investment AZN has been - going from £6 to the current £118.

I first bought at about the £30 level - unfortunately I have less than half the shares I once had after my last sale at about £66.
Another unfortunate is that I invested more into Glaxo than I did AZN and has been nowhere near as beneficial an investment (excluding dividends) as AZN

Ftse 100 now near the 7,700 level

Sell in May (2022) to go to cash not looking to have been the correct action by some.

with a number of my stocks well up.
Lloyds maintaining a good price level for a buyback

ANZ closing at yet another all time closing high at about £118 -
I hold at an average of under £2 giving a yield of about 115%
