Yep. You'd think all parties will want to accelerate this to free up around $8.9Bn cash (based on about 33.8% holding of $27bn market cap at today's prices).. and use it to fund all the amazing ideas they have come up last 2 weeks of campaigning....

what could they do with $8.9bn .

Looks a strong buy but I recall in 2019 the Labour 'then' wanted to nationalise NG.

Is this still a risk on this or unlikely given the investments and plans NG has now.?

Just curious before I jump in

No real news or conformation on this.

Curious with election and house building targets this may prove to be a good deal

Good read. Sold position.

Onwards to maintaining £5+

What will it take to keep this stock over 50p ?

My average is 51.7p

Seems to bounce around in the 40s for ever. Seems Healthy but anyone have a more professional fact based view on what it will take for this to roll on beyond 50p and stay there?

"... a fair price would be about £6.60 a share."

Looks like a decent view.. Thoughts?

I'm holding. Sold out just enough once it hit 350 to get back my initial investment at 90p but kept the rest invested. I think £5+ is quite realistic once dividends get going again.

Very healthy

I'll take that for my long term holdings.

""Final dividend per share of 22.3 pence (2022: 20.7 pence) giving a total dividend per share of 33.4 pence (2022: 31.0 pence), up 8%."

Positive focus on investment in Nuclear in the UK in the spring statement.

Good luck to RR on their proposal due June

Resilient financial performance

Operating profit of £1,667m (2022: £1,663m)

Profit after tax2 of £457m (2022: £783m)

Solvency II capital generation of £1.8bn (2022: £1.8bn)

Solvency II coverage ratio3of 224%, with surplus of £9.2bn (2022: 236%, £9.9bn)

Dividend per share of 20.34p, up 5% (2022: 19.37p)

With results on budget day I guess it's anyone's guess how the market esponds by the afternoon on Wednesday

I bought in at 13.28

More to go.

Content matters. I'm glad I bought in at 58p.

What's everyone's thoughts on the price for the public sale?

Invested here in the 180+ range.. Big mistake i admit, and i persevered CEO after CEO expecting better, but delusional leadership from the 2010's onwards never really recaptured their Mojo.

The hope of the deal with msft might keep this afloat but it's a decade too late. I'm just glad i have RR. gains ( in at 90p) to offset the VOD losses.

Hope this works for the share price..

Feels 5-10yrs too late..

Feels like they don't have 10yrs though..

I hope they move fast and some real benefits come in 24/25.

Thy bigger change they need is the culture along with the efficiency this deal would bring.

Saw this...... Potentially a new opportunity if they do upgrade them.. ?

still got a few (not many) suspended shares sitting in HSBC. Anyone know
1/ IF its possible to report them as a loss at all and write this off ?
2/ Are we just to wait and see if they come back ever?
3/ Any other options?

Thank you.

If you click on financial diary. You'll see its 24 Feb apparently

Encouraging update. Good one to hold.

Finally..! How long before it stays above 50p
