Janoz, you were ramping this incessantly even when in the mid .30s and you as keen as ever to control the narrative here, even with the sp down now nearly 50%.

You need a break from trading mate. You can’t see sh.t now even when it’s right under your nose lol

Well, I agree it's stupid and unfair system. No one can be in any doubt about that. Proportional representation is the ONLY fair way . One person - one equal vote. Crumbs the political landscape would look pretty scary though let's face it. It would in time though calm down and the sensible options would be chosen. The only reason the more extreme parties even get a look in is precisely because the rulers for the last 20 or 30 yrs or so have been so bad. People start to look in desperation for an alternative. In the end it's any alternative.

Hard work to listen through all of that but extremely interesting. Pharmacogenomics is going to be massive but....the big plan to implement testing is over the next 10 years rather than the next 10 months.

I'd like to buy a pair of those rose tinted spectacles you're obviously using nicos please.

Totally agree Broom - 'we need some imagination and creativity at the forthcoming Budget, not mindless tax raising because that simply doesn't work.'

But this is exactly what our new Leaders are planning.

Oh dbh calm down dear, you sound as if you're getting irate... deary me. lol it's your money and you can throw it away wherever you wish.

Nah mr investor. Come on, think about it. Would an ii bother lending a highly risky company based in Africa £1m at .28p in order to sell all those shares at about .32p??

No Mr investor93, imv most have ALREADY been sold way above that. There has been a big seller here for the past two months and the price has been held strangely high considering sells have massively outweighed buys for most of that period. The share price has been hovering at .40p and above with no particularly good news so unfortunately I think the placee has already made a whopping profit. Now it's just for retail to try and predict what on earth this new BODs is up to. Going by usual AIM shenanigans, and especially with companies based in high risk territories eg Russia and Africa, the final outcome will not be in favour of ordinary pis who are simply seen as the go-to cash cow any time dodgy directors need their salaries guaranteeing. Just the way of AIM I'm afraid.

Half a million quid bought yesterday bought at about .3 - .32 p. At some point very soon this is going to get ugly. Very ugly. The ongoing issues with WBI's workforce have NOT been solved as far as I am aware and the company now has a few more months to keep holding out to their demands for proper pay and proper contracts. Precisely because it's in Africa no one here in the UK can check out exactly what is going on. No one is going to jump on a plane to see for themselves are they? Would you? I'm certainly not going to. And so the CEO can peddle what ever rubbish he likes knowing he's far away enough from any serious scrutiny that could hold him to account.

Give it a month or two and then I think we'll hear of the company applying for administration. Actually something very similar happened with a company called Eastern Imperial, based in NZ, that dealt in luxury drinks mixers. One month before they filed for administration the CEO - one Tony Burt - did an interview in which he said how excited he was for H2 in 2024 and that things were looking really good. He failed to mention that the company had stopped its production entirely for a period of 6 months in the previous year (the market was never informed by RNS) and that the company was broke. The CEO spun a tissue of lies over the last two years and should be prosecuted for lying to the market and providing false information. Of course nothing happened. I think similar will happen here. The Directors, like Burt, got away a last placing and will take another 6 months salary and then it's caput. Workers walk away with nothing and ordinary share holders likewise.

I think you misunderstand me. I believe all the shares have already been forward sold when the sp was at and well above .4p over the last two months. Once they had all gone for a big fat profit then this placing landed and now everyone is buying shares in a company that’s in serious trouble. Each to their own.

Dbh you’re a di.k. Sadly just that, not even a clever one.

Honestly, you know nothing.

Exactly, £750k of buys but sp down over 20% but those extra shares aren’t in the market place yet. No, of course they aren’t! It’s just so ridiculously obvious they’re being dumped above the placing price and that at least half of what’s been printed in blue today should be in red! This is a farce and AIM should be closed down.

There have been a handful of days in the last three months when the volume has got even close to £50k incl buys AND sells. Today, share price dropped by a quarter pretty much and this plays out as it has. If anyone ever needed convincing AIM is bent and totally manipulated then watching WBI today is all you’ll ever need by way of proof and evidence.

Not according to the person who responded to my email two weeks ago. Unless of course they have magically now sorted it all out. If it was resolved or about to be resolved then why didn't they just say that? I was informed negotiations between management and staff were 'ongoing' and 'making progress' but that there had to date been 'no settlement of the dispute' but it was hoped they could 'resolve matters soon'. I have emailed the company again on this issue as I find it disconcerting in the extreme that the entire workforce walked out and were demonstrating for several weeks but the management felt it was NOT 'newsworthy'... No one else bothered by that? I'll post here if I get another response. Admittedly my email was two weeks ago but why wouldn't they have just said it's sorted if indeed it had been?

Most dogs have their day Janoz. Think CPX had its a few months back when this rose from below .1p all the way up to .4p. Since then thought it's dropped by 50%

Here's another reason why I think GDR won't be around much longer

https://www.ii.co.uk/analysis-commentary/funds-most-risk-aim-stocks-losing-iht-relief-ii532936

iis getting on board with GDR is the only way it could ever improve the share price significantly and if Gino can't raise any more money from AIM then why waste the time money and effort on being registered on it.

MM99 there is a vast amount of liquidity being removed altogether by iis from AIM principally because of this. My FA told me it was likely way back as soon as the General Election was announced because he thought it was almost inconceivable Labour would not win, and not win without a landslide victory, giving it confidence to tear into the City and Business world scraping whatever it could get from anywhere. AIM is an easy target. We're now starting to see where and now badly Labour want to hit the City and any part of it that currently makes a profit. Essentially AIM will be finished because pis make up a tiny part of it and the big headline 'winners' are always down to when an ii gets on board with a stock. iis and Pension Funds withdraw then it's game over. No point in any company being listed on AIM if there's no easy money to be had by BODs if they lie to their share holders and can then do huge placings.

This article is from June 14th THIS year. I'm sorry it doesn't make for comfortable reading...but people need to wise up here and quickly. The company has NOT settled this dispute and apparently many of the workers have just walked and some are still demonstrating outside but the management haven't turned up for months now.

So, what do you think might be going on here? Hmm let me see. Africa, long way away. Anyone likely to go and check it out for themselves? Nope, just headless chickens who see a possible 5 or 10% profit. Who gives a sh/t about the workers eh?! The more I look into this the more appalling it gets. The BODs, such as they are called are a bunch of cynical characters who have absolutely no interest in this company other than to take out what ever they possibly can for themselves. It's in Afirca so it's typically easy game for LSE's AIM

Wrong mackyd - one is old and one is clearly very recent.

Angry? You mean angry about the CEO not telling share holders what's really going on? hmmm yeah, you could say I'm a bit cheesed off at that. That and the fact you've just fallen for him telling you you've been heavily diluted today but it's only because we need money in order to sell product. How does that work then? ! It's turned into yet another of one Africa's company shams which bleeds Uk pis for cash but delivers nothing.

3.1p would be the obvious level wouldn't it? Decent uplift from here for sure and I'd kick myself but I'm made my decision and have to live with it I've got it wrong.

Gilham wants to take it private but they're not quite ready imho. Appoint Gino and do a Director buy for a low sum (to him personally) to buy some time until everything is lined up. I'm watching with interest here from the sidelines but seriously worry an awful lot of people are going to lose their shirts on this. I think Cheek wouldn't buy into the plan and so was 'shoved' out the door and in comes Gino to do as he's told by the Chairman.

You appear Chesh to be ignoring the fact they have no one working for them at the moment? Did you watch those video links posted on this bb a few days ago?? Pretty compelling evidence that the CEO is not being up front about the true situation and the ongoing dispute with the company workforce….
