That must add a few quid to travel insurance... To go from no real need for insurance for a European holiday to a premium package is going to put some off. Another low blow to the tourism market.

Bad news for EasyJet etc...

"We have a significant shareholder prepared to pay 29% over the current mid-price in"

That's the thing with entering binding contracts; they do not seem to have bought more at the current bargain prices. They could be expected to buy more at the current price if they were happy with a penny but are not; why not?

People really like putting lipstick on a pig... A bit like laminated blondes pretending to be in their twenties despite the sagging.

"Have the prices been fixed?"

I would be more concerned if the jockey was under pressure to fall off before the finish.

Their Cyber Truck does look like it came from a Mad Max film...

Greedy folks got spiked - up to nearly 1.9p this morning and now 1.2p to sell.

To lose a third of your stake in a morning - brutal.

She pays her taxes without playing devious tax planning games and her hubby owns Stoke City FC. They seem to be an asset to their local community even though betting firms suck the lifeblood out of too many.

I mistimed a chunky buy of VANL shares 2 months and had the misfortune of seeing the price drop 15%. Some recent buying and an acquisition RNS this morning has seen the Bid finally creep up over my buy in price.

They were generating reasonable free cash flow in the build up to Brexit BC {before covid]; now Brexit has happened, and it seems we are getting closer to a post-covid so the future upside seems good. I am expecting a dividend yield of well over 10% next year.

Is the Netflix programme a Mockumentary?

Maybe the members of the BOD will deserve a "relatively modest" bonus if and when they complete funding and then when they export first gas (and when they do other things that they already receive "relatively modest" compensation for?

If you are reading this board then you know there is some confusion if the placing was done at 1p.

Why not comment on that? Do you only make ramping PR comments? Do shareholders have to interpret what you mean by what is not said?

Clarification would be useful; silence could be telling.

Sector,

"They needed to reignite race wars by declaring the country is infected with systematic racism"

Doris has managed to do it by producing a report that says there is nothing to look at here / time to get rid of racism training. Part of Tax Inspectors training used to be a module where they were made to think about their inbuilt bias on things they how long a wok would last in a Chinese takeaway (6 days) so were they buying the right amount of woks [sales and purchase suppression] or too many woks [hiding personal expenses] [woks are just an example].

Take away training like that and predominantly white people go after other taxpayers disproportionately and undermine confidence in the policing of the system which makes people cheat better.

This ScrewFast acquisition appears sound to me - spending cash indicates continued profitable trading and an expectation of an up tick in the volume of profitable contracts to bid on and win. Hopefully my Dye will show some more confidence and buy some shares on the open market. The recent small recovery in share price helps as well.

People did not want to be locked down - ignore the scientists.
People don't want their taxes wasted - hide the waste.
People want someone to blame - good thing there are immigrants to blame.

People end up sick and poor, and it is the immigrants fault so re-elect me and I will get rid of them [and then retire to do after dinner speeches at only £250k a go...]

I prefer technocrats; populists try to give people what they want, not what society needs.

And populists always end up abusing their positions to cover up their mistakes [Covid?] and the enrichment of their enablers and lovers.

I am not sure ow Doris will play it - Biden is nor Trump and his policies are popular so far, so the Dens could be in power for many years, so the Tories will have to learn how to "play nice".

If Biden wants international tax rules to change Doris will toe the line, especially if it means he can raise more money to spend on populist policies like flags and parades and shiny trains...

He mentioned a global minimum tax... if the Chancellor does not collect what is due here Biden will just take it there. The Chancellor will have to tax the like of Amazon then or face a hopefully hostile media...

He says no tax deductions for sending jobs / profits etc offshore. The number of UK companies that send money offshore to pay interest on loans from other parts of the same company / rent trademarks etc stink.

Maybe our leaders will have the guts to do the same?

The moth killing drones that use AI to identify and then track and destroy moths in greenhouses are interesting - they use heir blades to slice the moths into tiny pieces. The AI recognises bees and leaves them alone.
