Totally respect your opinion too Eloro - let's just wait and see.

At the end of the day, had we been offered 35p even six months ago to exit, we'd have bitten their hands off. If that's all we get then so be it, but IMO it's a hold and I expect better personally. It might just be the V8 Bentley for me rather than the W12, but it's still not a bad motor compared to these horrific Chinese milk floats ;)

Spot on Rodney, it says Porsche are taking a £6.65bn hit in their failed EV plans.

Most of the German manufacturers are doing the same, Mercedes jettisoned their new all EV platform too. The head of Ford even said "it's very difficult to convince people to buy things they don't want" in her plea to loosen EV mandates.

The nonsense is all but over. One the Labour party ejected (hopefully for the rest of my life), we won't hear about Net Zero ever again.

Of course, there's always a climate catastrophe just around any corner for the eco-socialist fascists to glue themselves to....so to speak

The next major milestone is whether Jiangxi decide to put forward their offer formally. Expect them to do it at 33p in the coming days if they do. They will see this a a sweetener and would have to pay that anyway if it's blocked and they have to pay the 52w high on gaining 30% the slow way. In fact why would BHP accept 28p, knowing they can get 32.5 if they just don't back Jiangxi and make them pay cash at 52w high?

People are not seeing the obvious

Electricity Prices

Countries with Highest Renewables Share

Look at the correlation between those with the highest electricity prices and the most intermittent, renewable energy. Incredible isn't it? The countries burning the most coal, oil and gas have by far the cheapest power. Those with the most wind - from turbines, politicians and stupid woke twats, have the highest energy costs and hence the least prosperity going forwards.

wouldn't waste your time on the pillock rodney, after all this the guy who said

1. raise at 5p, instead we shot to 32p with a 28p offer on the table

2. ev adoption is inevitable, and now even the woke eu has binned them off

3. renewables are cheaper than coal, gas and oil and here we are in the uk...the more renewables we get the more expensive our energy compared to peers

4. that co2 is somehow a thermostat for the world's "average temperature", when temperature is not additive and therefore cannot be averaged.

he is a useful idiot to the wef movement. a sneering, woke moron who thinks that he is intellectually superior to others yet cannot think critically for himself. if it's not in the guardian, it won't come out of his mouth or his keyboard.

best to ignore the ******, at least until he has the balls to face anybody on here and try and condescend them in person.

I've posted my opinion maybe half a dozen times since Friday Eloro. Nothing is binding and I believe BHP are trying to lure Jiangxi into an accepted bid so they can sucker punch not that much higher. Without tacit acceptance at 28p, BHP could bid 40p and it would have been laughed at because it's less than they already paid.

I also believe unconnected parties can come in if Jiangxi make the offer formal and the board decide to recommend it.

All of it. Science is repeatable, observable experimentation. Not software models and money offered to capture backing for outrageous theories that are designed to take money and power from people.

I am encouraged finally by how many people are realising they have been had. Just as they did during Covid. I expect the same "silent shuffle" in their attitudes to avoid the embarrassment of admitting they were mugged off and couldn't see it

Would that be THIS diverse book theory and prediction Jezzoo? Wise words from the Mercurial Mustard Cords Sage of Investing

26 Dec is the deadline for the Chinks to go formal, not for anybody else to counter them

Quady, I possess a Bsc(1st class honours) in Maths. Of course I understand Maths and Science.

You don't have any such equivalent certification to your name because you are a docile bone head. The sort of muppet that doesn't see a scam like Climate Alarmism when it smacks him round the face like a wet kipper. Even the EU have woken up FFS!!!! Germany is recommissioning coal power stations and the EV mandate is toast.

The game is up. Everybody except Ed Miliband, you and Slack Arse have realised that they've been had and were wrong all along.

Honestly, even I am flabbergasted at how many brain dead morons are using and parroting the results of AI engines. And they come and announces it all proudly "I asked AI" (as if nobody else in the world has the wherewithal to perform an AI search, only them) and they list the results with pointing finger emojis, tick boxes, rockets, whatever and they believe what they have been told without having the faintest idea how these LLM's work.

If Google searches produced a civilisation far too stupid to think and research for itself, and only too willing to accept what nefarious software wants them to believe wasn't mad enough, we now have the same (and more) sheep pinning their faith in something which is even worse in terms of how it works, how it gets its results and how it can be used by bad actors for propaganda. These things are programmed by hard left, captured wokes whose view on life is disconnected from reality.

You can make AI tell you anything you want to hear, simply by challenging it. Like the wokes who programmed it, it is far too wet and subservient to stand its ground.

Humanity is in massive danger. The Chinks/Russians behind all the information warfare and lawfare must be licking their chops at how gullible you all are.

Spot on DBW, he's another snake in the grass. And every post is War and Peace.

I see it differently to the pessimists on here. I see BHP pulling a fast one once they get Jiangxi committed.

I see others looking at the disconnect between accepted offer and asset value and tipping their hat in the ring.

Sure, there are only so many companies willing to undertake a project of this size, but the capital inflow for decades to come as well as the strategic ownership of important metals should make even mid-tier companies take a look.

Eloro, do you honestly want Nick to be as weak as you are? Just roll over and accept whatever the big boys tell him to do?

I despise weakness, in all forms of life.

Plenty of juice left in this one yet. If all of those majors or investors capable of bringing this to production just sit back and watch the Chinks take it, then they can't complain that the East has a stranglehold on metals.

I still expect someone else to come forward, it's all about getting the offer officially from Jiangxi first.

GLA - Next week could be big, 28p is now a floor. Imagine being the clueless pillock still waiting for a 5p raise? 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

Agreed DBW, plenty to happen before AGM but if nothing does and they sell us out at 28p, then I think plenty might make the trip to voice dissatisfaction

Also...

Next week could be big, 28p is now a floor. Imagine being the clueless pillock still waiting for a 5p raise? 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

Quady, Manfred Weber President of the EPP, the largest party in the European Parliament

"There will also be no 100% target from 2040 onwards. This means that the technology ban on combustion engines is off the table. All engines currently manufactured in Germany can therefore continue to be produced and sold."

Weber said this sent an important signal "to the entire automotive industry and secures tens of thousands of industrial jobs", reflecting concerns over the future of one of Europe's most important industries.

Translation....Germany (who props up the entire EU now the UK is out) has put its foot down and demanded its economy be allowed to flourish freely.

Exactly, "minded to" is about as cold as a mother-in-law's breath. It's quite some way off "unanimously recommends"

They're hardly spitting Mars Bars about it in their terminology
