Gazala- as you say, it looks like the start of de-escalation talks by the Ukrainians and Russia

What does Russia want?
An end to NATO military activity in eastern Europe, including Ukraine, the Caucasus and Central Asia
No expansion of NATO membership, particularly to Ukraine
No intermediate or shorter-range missiles deployed close enough to hit the territory of the other side
No military exercises of more than one military brigade in an agreed border zone
An agreement that parties do not consider each other as adversaries and will resolve disputes peacefully
Neither Russia nor the United States can deploy nuclear weapons outside their national territories.

What did Russia say recently when US rejected.
Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told reporters Russia and the West needed to start afresh in rebuilding relations.

Wow, we’re so luck to have such an expert in our midst , at just the right time”.
Amazing- lol

Millennial- Japanese and Chinese don’t care about American sanctions

Money talks - yes
And Germany and France will say to Biden - do your grandstanding but get a deal done or our energy supplies and economies are fecked

Americans are so arrogant. There are other ways of seeing things and party Boris is a lapdog to USA as all British PMs are. I Like Macrons attempts instead
Oh and by the way if you can believe it Biden say's they're invading on Wednesday
Would be the only war to have a train time table start.
Just what you do as a prudent commander- tell the enemy in advance.
It's made up media quotes to make the phone call look like - hey look I averted a war.
Push your free world agenda and push China and Russia closer together.
Unite in Trade not Idealogical agendas is a better motto.

Tilly - just got back from Argos after picking up a job lot of medieval Dysons. I'll pass them out to the crew and lets clear the decks for some plain sailing

Gecko - Surely the 12th May RNS & this answer in 22nd June RNS update explains initail strategy & why irrespective of NDAs

Q3: Can the board release a comprehensive update regarding the potential asset sale?

Our RNS of 12 May 2021 stated the Company had received a proposal for the potential acquisition of substantially all of the Company's assets, and that the transaction would make the Company subject to AIM rule 15 (any disposal which exceeds 75% in any of the class tests is deemed to be a disposal resulting in a "fundamental change of business"). The Company has provided as much detail as permitted by the AIM Rules regarding this proposal and looks forward to providing more detail when appropriate and permitted by the AIM Rules. Proceeding under the remit of AIM Rule 15 would require a shareholder circular to be published and a general meeting of shareholders held to approve any transaction.

Montyfino- shortsighted. I suppose EVs were no value blue sky projects in your world few years ago.
Glad Elon didn’t have your visionary outlook then .

Some mega value created in that side show as you call it . LOL

So you saw the H2 hydrogen venture and the Rosgeo JV massive increase in resources coming did you!! I doubt you had any clue. And as for the SP in thin volume- give over it’s a few fretful shares passing from the weak to the MMs who are filling bigger and bigger Big Boy off book orders.

Montyfino- and so , as the economists would say “ bygones are bygones” we judge it now, in this time, in this frame.
Prepare for that blind side RNS that the BoDs are so good at dropping

GLG. - Ok , understood.
I feel we’re in the home straight now when you look at the list of rapid fire roughly weekly - 7 x RNSs, Mac posted earlier since 16th Dec with the last one about 2 weeks ago.
It’s close now and next 2 or 3 RNSs will bring the big one I feel.
GLA

GLG - I’ve previously supported you when you’ve been attacked by the shorters and derampers but now I feel even though you have every right to vent your frustration all you seem to be doing is doing their job for them. You could just email the Company with your concerns or just trust the BoD to conclude what is undoubtedly a very large and complex deal.

Roger :- the subtle deramper strickes again!

Oh dear TMS's bitterness at losing out early on when he sold millions of share at 2 to 4 p just oozes from every post!!

Roger65- is a long term subtle deramper. Deliberately ignoring the clear references in RNSs that the BoD are executing their on original strategy which is:-
“ Our RNS of 12 May 2021 stated the Company had received a proposal for the potential acquisition of substantially all of the Company's assets, and that the transaction would make the Company subject to AIM rule 15 (any disposal which exceeds 75% in any of the class tests is deemed to be a disposal resulting in a "fundamental change of business").

I am so so sick and tired of these lying agenda driven Botflies . Always appearing like clockwork on No RNS days ( of which there have been fewer of late because the Deal is closing in) to spread fear and seeking to generate fear .
There’s that old saying and now a new one
“ Lies Damn Lies and Botfly Posters”

Just listened to the 27th Jan webcast again and was very pleased to hear how impressed Dr Chris Brightling was particularly when he said “….the signals we’re seeing in the ACQs are really quite striking…”. A statement like that from someone who is so well respected in the field is very very encouraging.
