whowrotethis: perhaps you should be more concerned about your cash in chicken-sh*t AIM Miners:- 'Jubilee Platinum (JLP) last week announced a $50 million funding package to grow its metals recovery business. Oh no Riverfort! Said the snipers. Death spirals, yak, yak, yak. They have it wrong. This deal is, if you read the detail, good news.' - Most of us have 'Been there, Done that, got the scars to prove it'

Mr Lissu (Singida East-Chadema) claimed that he had evidence showing that the plane has been seized due to the government's failure to pay compensation of $38.7 million (Sh83 billion) to the Canadian firm Stirling Civil Engineering. The firm was tendered to construct the Wazo Hill-Bagamoyo Road in the 2000s but, according to Lissu, the government terminated the deal illegally, and the contractor filed a case at the International Court of Arbitration which the government lost in 2010 and ordered to pay the compensation of $25 million with an interest rate of 8 per cent. According to Mr Lissu, the debt wasn't paid in time hence it increased to $38 million by end of June this year, when the order to seize government properties was issued. According to Bombardier website, such a plane is worth $32.2 million (about Sh70 billion). 'Won't Pay - we'll take the plane'

1 of my brokers (HL) is holding my hand on this, email indicating my claims, etc. I'm in line for a few grand, now the ball is rolling, letters from KPMG, ads in papers, etc. Worth checking if you have a claim :)

-not even a post card as the SP dives 4.7%...

Yes -we seem to have dodged the bullet this time! Read several reports naming the rest of the Big4 & Waitrose Tesco is conspicuous by it's absence :)

Glad the Press Sec. Is having a nice holiday, which precludes the use of the internet to give all us 'mushrooms' a heads up- let's hope she/he dosn't have a headache on Monday.

PowerRanger:Call me old-fashioned, but it is customary to give the source of exuberant pumping Posts, Ouija boards, chicken entrails etc. Usual to add 'IMO', to such 'feeling in my bones', nonsense, LOL.

IMO. Holders would be mad to sell before they get the promised dividend this year & the Booker deal is done. Some, like me, who qualfy for Compo, may re-invest it in Tesco. So we wait. Sales still doing better than SBRW,MRW & ASDA. New Investors will be betting on outcome of Booker deal & to much lesser extent 'Not Guity' verdicts in on- going trial of the Tesco 3, DYOR.

No mention of Tesco in egg scandal, Papers & TV name only SBRY Waitrose, MRW & ASDA.

BTW: Lloyds - looks like yummy dividends for LLOY - do keep up! Or do you just cut 'n paste your last post ? Description Dividend (per share) Ex Dividend Date Record Date Payment Date Interim 2017 1.00p 10/08/2017, 11/08/2017, 27/09/2017

- for regurgitating your view that Tesco is like LLoyds, ( no, I don't get it either). We are promised a dividend this year - it must have slipped your mind :) If the Booker merger fails one would expect the SP to fall & Short Tracker to reflect this likelihood . Yesterday's position:- MRW: 15.07%, SBRY: 6.22% and Tesco er... 1.22%. Also for reminding us than Non-Exec Robin Cousins quit in January - how time flies! Every one of our millions of shareholders has a right to pen an angry letter to a newspaper but it will be votes that count and papers like the Ev. Standard and have voiced their approval, 'a touch of genius about this deal' etc.

I am very happy to have sold 900 ACA at about 258p when the div was cancelled- I am very unhappy to be stuck with about 261 in my SIPP. Fools rush in because the unhinged President hasn't walked out of the talks- YET. And this is the GOOD news??? Denby:We have mountains of gold - WTF do wd need a rights issue to?? I wont pay another dime to this crooked cartel to buy what we legally own already.

dweil & other useful idiots constantly post 'BUY - STRONG BUY' based on nothing more than the feeling in their water, when they hold NO ACA themselves, indeed,I doubt if some Tanzanian local posters, with their LOL 'Reaserch' have a pot to urinate in :)

BJ : IN YOUR OPINION - you !!!@#

Was it 'reasonable' or insane to demand 194 Billion? Even the intervention of the Angel Gabriel may make no difference to the President's mindset. 'Kind words butter no Parsnips' & even with a 50% appreciation in SP, it would be still be less than what it was before the Dividend was cut, only 16 days ago. Should you be posting 'Buy' based on nothing more than a warm feeling in your bladder?

Pistachio Nut: I think you are down about 40 grand in ACA right? In a matter of days after your dog had just died -wasn't that a bit reckless?? We are at the whim of a dictator who has made insane claims, no regard for the rule of law & appoints the Judges in Tanzania. Tell me when I get to the good bit in this dismal saga.

Negotiation, African style, or 'Win,Win' as some posters call it :) HARARE, Aug 2 (Reuters) – Zimbabwe has filed a court application to enforce a previous notice to seize more than half of platinum producer Zimplats' mining land, the company said on Wednesday. Zimplats, which is majority controlled by Impala Platinum in January said President Robert Mugabe's government had made a new attempt to compulsorily acquire 27,948 hectares of its mining ground, which the company opposed.

HL rightly boast of smart,educated guys/gals at the end of the phone line. During VOD/Verizon merger I was getting much 'Hand holding' for FREE, compared with PI on other platforms, and cash element was banked before others, according to VOD BB. Do I have a gripe- YES, I was excluded from HL IPO because of the high value hurdle set for investors :( HL can cut charges quicker than others can build a decent platform, & our profit margin is 70% .

I must have missed the announcement - or did you forget to add 'IMO'?
