You jammy sod!! :>))))

95% of LLOY posts are protracted Brexit arguments....this has been going on for years
I don't care so long as others don't post their Brexit crap
Cheers ALL

The BBC said the first DEBS stores to close will be next yr....so some chance to find another job

I've just received an ADMIN warning that my A/C would be deleted if I posted another Brexit post on the lloyds board
The odd thing is, I've only posted a couple of posts on LLOY in the last week.
Did you receive this warning m8

A few posts from recent days:

"3p to 3.5p coming"

"Dare you be holding short outside market hours or overnight? We just saw this morning what happened at the weekend and first thing this morning. Shorting profits
ADVERTISEMENT

can disintegrate in a flash."

"A firmly blue day for me tomorrow. What to do with the readies when the Ashley bid becomes formal?"

"Any blatant scaremongering to the contrary should be reported and the originators banned. Debenhams will be trading this weekend, next week, the week after ........"

"The odds are a lot shorter than anything indicated on here. Extension - it should go up as its clear talks are on. Underwrite - Its going up - as prepack is out the water. Bid - Its going up to 5p in a flash."

"My guess an opening bid of 4p. The Board come back saying it undervalues the company and he comes back with 6 or 7p per share. Its prime time and for the shorters its laptops to the bogs and must watch for every RNS, No No 2's and sleepless nights hoping Sky doesn't break the story or an RNS appears after or prior to market opening hours."

"If he does Bid at £60M and 5p per share. He only needs a further 22% to succeed. Its Showtime boys and girls!!! Can't wait for tomorrow now."

"Debenhams will still be trading next week as will the shares and all companies have residual value. Its laptops to the bog time for the shorters and both hands on the keyboard. No number 2's during market hours and btw don't forget Ashley can table the bid outside market hours and then you can't respond till opening. If its a formal bid at 5p then that should be where it opens"

"a dire weekend for anyone having kept open a short position over the weekend. Yesterdays Guardian article talked about a 2p Rights issue so that represents an absolute floor for the share price. Not only that but it also talked about Ashley having to Monday night and also about Extensions thereafter. So all the deramping c@ rp of only till Friday to bid, 7a.m Monday, pre-pack, Zero pence and wipeout have all been completely blown out the water."

"There should now be a very large influx of buyers in the morning now spying the 150% difference between 2p and 5p and anyone who is presently short will be clamouring to close their position first thing and to be the first to try and bank some gains before they disintegrate. That should result in a short squeeze combined with buying pressure."

"The shorters are running for the hills by the looks of things."

"Come the 11th hour Debenhams will still be opening for business tomorrow morning and the stock will still be trading on the stock market. On the one hand the seets must be worth something and to being bid for so there is a residual value in the something like 165 stores in the group and Magesun we know is profitable. On the other hand - Ashley launches a bid and its 5p."

"If he paid 22p a year ago then somewhere in the middle would do just nicely."

Thanks you again MR TIBBLES

85,000 British troops surrender within a few days as the commander Arthur Percival wanted to save lives

The worst defeat in the history of British arms, the Battle of Singapore and the preceding Malayan Campaign saw Percival's command suffer around 7,500 killed, 10,000 wounded, and 120,000 captured. Japanese losses in the fighting for Singapore numbered around 1,713 killed and 2,772 wounded. While some of the British and Australian prisoners were kept at Singapore, thousands more were shipped to Southeast Asia for use as forced labor on projects such as the Siam–Burma (Death) Railway and Sandakan airfield in North Borneo.

were all snake oil salesmen that fooled the masses with their relentless lies SNIGE

Watched the recorded version last night
Excellent program as u said
The 2 VC's awarded shows that the Kents and Indian troops would fight to the end
Which would have happened had not our second division ended the siege
This series continues on Friday at 10pm btw
Cheers for the heads up!!!

HALFPENNY...Thanks for your reply

I know Trump has blamed the FED and wants to replace Jerome Powell saying the head of the nation’s central bank threatened U.S. economic growth because of the aggressive rate hikes
But has the FED stopped QT

the last time I checked
QT = quantitive tightening = unwinding QE = approx. $60B/Month

Apart from some investors trying to ramp up the share price.
Please tell me more?

The Kohima War Cemetery is a memorial in honor of those officers and soldiers killed during the World War II. Formerly known as Garrison Hill it is designed as a series of terraces with magnificent stone steps, bearing testimony to one of the most stubborn, close and bloody fighting in the whole of the Second World War. This cemetery is maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
On the 18 plots of the cemetery, there are 1421 slabs erected in memory of soldiers who were killed in the battle of Kohima. Of these, 1070 were from the United Kingdom, 5 from Canada, 3 from Australia, 33 from undivided India, 2 from East Africa, 1 from West Africa, 9 from Burma and 1 non-war grave. Each grave is supported by a bronze plaque with an apt epitaph.
Historians have called Battle of Kohima “one of the bitterly fought battles of the Second World War” and a “battle of Attrition” involving “fierce hand-to-hand combat”. The bitterest battle ever fought lasted for three months. Only 20,000 of the 85,000 Japanese who had come to invade India were left standing. The cost of the allies has been 17,857 British and Indian troops killed, wounded and missing. Before leaving Kohima the British erected a moving memorial in memory of their fallen comrades.
