Thank you for the clarification NEWD.

Sadly Mike, given past behaviour I assume the outcome is going to be very one sided. The private investor will be losing out.

The £3.6 billion takeover by Daniel Kretinsky's EP Group has been approved and will be announced on Monday morning.

The fact that the financial institutions have the ability to artificially fix the price here at around 356p since November reinforces what's been said here over the years.

What chance does the private investor have???

I would be quite irritated that they acted without instructions.

Anyone think the SP looks suspiciously stable today?

Mike, JB. I know I'm not alone in my firm belief that the shareholders have never been treated equally here.

Secret talks, incentives to buy etc. Why would it be necessary, other than discussing unequal treatment. But when did the rabble get fair treatment?

Can't say it hasn't been fun here at times,. But frustrating also.

Anyone else have a feeling of having already experienced the present situation. When the Institutions were offered a deal in return for holding the shares. 🤔

Totally agree with your comments Darbo.

Hi to you all and yes, thank you JB all's well with me as I hope with everyone.

I read the "concession" line as with regard to discussions with the union ?

My decision was not to agree to the offer and let things pan out however they do. Should the majority decide to cave in then so be it. But it's not over yet.

It's not passed the line yet though :-

"it is expected sufficient numbers of them will accept, allowing the deal to go ahead"

"NEWD, still here waiting to see what HAPPENS"

Not surprised to once again be in agreement but your "housey housey" comment has me, flummoxed?

I hold my full shareholding intact and am not surprised either by the results or the timing of the proposed takeover.

This has been manipulated from the outset by all and sundry with no regard for shareholders. If the Company is allowed to be taken over. It will be the icing on the corrupt cake. I will at least know that I was not complicit in our downful.

Lots of selling today.???

It impressed me Derek. But I am comparing with cards etc sent from UK via snail mail taking around two weeks.

I understand the parcel was sent via ACS maybe that accounts for the delay. I'm obviously easily impressed.

EDIT!

Compare IDS delivery times within Uk with this:-

1 kilo parcel left with DHL in Cyprus Tuesday 15:00. Delivered UK Essex Thursday 13:00.

I feel the USO made it impossible to deliver mail in a cost effective manner. If parcels bring in a profit that the way to go., or drop the USO.

Can't win them all. I have accepted gains and losses here since privatisation. Fortunately at the offer price I will walk away smiling. However I still wonder if the deal will fail to materialise. I have said no to the offer so free to sell now at a profit but..... So far I'm holding.

Krish, There was a lengthy discussion regarding this. Go to the thread around this date for further info :-
