skier - oops; apologies with the numbers

'The UK is in good shape.'

Why is it borrowing so much?

re GOV lying?

'There are over 1.2 million full-time equivalent staff working in NHS trusts and clinical commissioning groups in England – over 31,000 more people compared to a year ago, up by over 2.5%.'

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/record-numbers-of-staff-working-in-the-nhs

"According to new data, almost 2000 working hours of staffers’ time at the East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust – which will today be afflicted by strikes – was spent on “events and lectures” between April-December 2022."

TFE.

Surely you realise that:

1 - The Tax Payers Alliance is a business organisation dedicated to not paying tax who have a misleading name;
2 - That the NHS will not have released data about which staff who attended conferences months ago were on strike recently, so the figures they quote are just made up and could be higher or lower;

----AND - this is the big one------

3 - in England alone there were 134000 vacancies in Sep last year. At an average annual contracted hour of 1800 hours, the NHS is short nearly 250 million man-hours a year.

The scandal is not diversity training; it is the understaffing of the NHS which will be responsible for your family members not being seen in a timely manner if they have the misfortune to need to use it.

someone needed cash

It is so generous of The Dear Leader to allow his acolytes the ongoing opportunities to average down.

In SS we trust.

Interesting Private Eye tweet about the new Tory deputy chairman

'Ovgun Ahmet Ercan, an earthquake expert, estimates that 180,000 people or more may be trapped under the rubble, nearly all of them dead.'

Been watching Agenda Free TV - the footage he is finding is staggering:

Nearly 200k is way higher than any other estimate I have heard so far.

Greg Hands, not Guy Hands.

Another one born in the US, so he is on the deportation list.

This does not seem to add up:

'Bens Creek Group plc (AIM:BEN), the owner of a metallurgical coal mine in North America supplying the steel industry, announces that it has today been advised by MBU Capital Group Limited ("MBU"), the Company's largest shareholder, that, following demand from institutional investors, it has today sold 22,222,222 ordinary shares in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 18p per ordinary share, equivalent to 5.92% of the existing issued share capital of the Company, to diversify the shareholder base of the Company.' [from 6pm TR1]

If there was 'demand from institutional investors' then why did they sell the shares at a 25% discount...? If someone wanted the shares that much, why a big discount? Why not a premium? After all, the SP was over £1 8 months ago.

kenny,

evi has the wrong BEN

Adrian,

They say that talking to yourself is the first sign of madness...

PM2022,

A read through your history is also interesting

Page 10 - 15/12/22: "Jan = lab revenue generating will boost confidence"
Page 20 - 18/08/22: "For maximum gains I stay put as I know we are close possibly days/weeks away at most imo."
Page 30 - 13/06/22: "Suzy is still very confident. Be greedy when others are fearful." [Strong Buy 24.25p]
Page 40 - 21/02/22: "Time to get buying here." [Strong Buy 27.5p]
Page 50 - 26/10/21: "This should a lesson for all. Do your homework and know what lies ahead. Don't listen to the children [Strong Buy 54.25p]

So, after posting 'Don't listen to the children' the price has dropped over 80%.

Maybe a bunch of retired metal workers should form a death metal band?

A twitter account some might like to follow - MAFL retweeted one of the accounts tweets today:

"The global copper supply pipeline is thinning due to shrinking exploration budgets and a dramatic slowdown in the number of new deposits. Most of the copper that’s produced every year comes from assets that were discovered during the 1990s."

Appalling - even boasting of abusing the boards on Twitter.

Is the 100Centurion account suspended?

Sunak to create Department of Energy Security [DOES?] - how long will it take an expert to start ramping this?

Remember, with 50 barrels a day UKOG is producing 1.5 millilitres of oil per person per day. National significance and all that...

They must be sooooo jealous of the 50 barrels a day that UKOG struggle to produce. With The Dear Leader being paid around £20 a barrel how much would the BP leader be paid if paid at the same rate [it could be argued he should be paid even more as he runs a profitable company].

Tar Spot in corn is a growing problem; little understood, despite the economic damage the accompanying fungus is causing. The fungicides currently being used are toxic, and the fungi develop resistance; during this afternoon's results presentation by PHC they mentioned some promising results of one of their natural compounds against Tar Spot.

Not something to excite the average AIM investor / gambler, but an interesting and potentially very lucrative development.
