Will it work against the jet powered Shaheed drones that russia has started to deploy? 500k an hour makes them much harder to target...

Good lad... good President

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Why are the Gammons on here so upset that Reeves has been recommended to bring back the Thatcher bank tax? I thought Maggie was supposed to be some sort of God like figure? From the Independent article:

'It recommends the Treasury introduce a “QE reserves income levy”, similar to the 2.5 per cent deposit tax imposed on banks under Margaret Thatcher in 1981, to rebalance the existing set-up.'

"To avoid IHT that your Marxist chums want to inflict on my children."

Great to see that you are confident that neither Reform nor the Conservatives stand a chance at the next election!

The Age of Price Discovery in Commercial Real Estate draws closer and closer... This line from a Bloomberg story [The End of London’s Elizabeth Line Is Awash With Empty Offices] gives a taste of what people thought property values could be and what Mr Market seems to be saying [bear in mind this is not even a fire sale]:

'And M&G has been attempting to sell 3 Forbury Place, a neighboring office it acquired alongside the two new developments, since 2022. Originally listed for £86 million, the price tag was cut almost in half to £45 million last year.

Negotiations are ongoing and the building is now expected to sell for less than £30 million, people with knowledge of the process said, asking not to be named discussing sensitive details of the deal.'

Wanted £86m and going to get £28m = 67.5% discount. Some banks are sitting on horrendous losses that they are going to have to eventually recognise.

His CDC resignation letter is worth a read

https://x.com/dr_demetre/status/1960843433473376602

'The recent shooting at CDC is not why I am resigning. My grandfather, who I am named after, stood up to fascist forces in Greece and lost his life doing so. I am resigning to make him and his legacy proud. I am resigning because of the cowardice of a leader that cannot admit that HIS and his minions’ words over decades created an environment where violence like this can occur. I reject his and his colleagues’ thoughts and prayers, and advise they direct those to people that they have not actively harmed.'

Microplastics may be found in the tea meant for human consumption. A 2019 study showed that "steeping a single plastic teabag at brewing temperature (95 °C; 203 °F) releases approximately 11.6 billion microplastics and 3.1 billion nanoplastics into a single cup of the beverage".[23][24] A 2021 study analyzed purportedly cellulose tea bags and found that 15 of the 22 bags tested also contained polyester, polyethylene or polypropylene, which are known to shed microplastic fibers

Clipper Tea is the best... 'None of our products contain anything artificial. They never will. In 2018 we were the world’s first tea company to switch to Plant-Based, Biodegradable, non-GM and unbleached tea bags. We’re also constantly working on ways to be greener, from production to packaging.'

Wise solicitor [David Allen Green] with a respected knowledge of UK political laws; his writing is always worth listening to. This is one of his latest pieces: 'Yes, an incoming illiberal and radical UK government would have absolute constitutional power'

https://davidallengreen.com/2025/08/yes-an-incoming-illiberal-and-radical-uk-government-would-have-absolute-constitutional-power/

This is a clear warning [and Labour is unlikely to change any laws to prevent them being exploited:

'One suspects various “think-tanks” are already collating the discretionary powers that already exist, ready to arm – DOGE-style – an incoming radical and illiberal government.'

Some cracking drilling results announced by Luca today but the market is not impressed [Google currently showing down 1%]; I am impressed:

Evi,

The company said: 'The Possible Investment, which is expected to be priced at a significant discount to the closing price on Friday 22 August 2025,' The share price closed at 1.42p on Friday so they seem to be talking about a placing around a penny. Anyone buying today [1.83 at the moment] is just a gambler... And gambling with a bad hand of cards.

Cykel AI (LSE: CYK) notes the significant increase in its share price and the volume of trading in its shares. The board is in advanced discussions with a strategic investor group regarding a possible significant equity investment into the Company, to raise funds to help develop the Company's existing business and support its treasury strategy which will be revised if the fundraise completes to allow investment in Solana and stablecoins (the "Possible Investment"). The Possible Investment, which is expected to be priced at a significant discount to the closing price on Friday 22 August 2025, will be subject to shareholder approval.
