If you are happy for british soldiers to start coming back in body bags, that is entirely your prerogative.

The Israeli ground troops are off to a bit of a feeble ground invasion.

One thing attacking a poorly lightly armed Hamas, but taking on Hezbollah will be a whole different game.

Yesterday I saw reports that a 21 year old Israeli was returning in a body bag, as one of the first casualties of the invasion which is very sad, as clearly inexperienced young conscript soldiers up against Hezbollah, who have fire in their blood are not good odds... It's going to be a game of whac-a-mole with Hezbollah. The Israeli tanks are going to be sitting ducks in the scrubland of southern Lebanon. Air superiority can only help so much.

Only apt to follow with, 'The Green Field of France'.

675, make it 8 weeks. In 4 weeks we'll be in the eye of the storm. Let the dust settle!

675, "The main reasons I haven't done it is because I think Lloyds are a good long term hold"

Exactly, keep calm and carry on.

The less experienced investors on here are whipping themselves into a frenzy, and trying to spook everyone else!

The budget will come and go, but Lloyds will remain a good investment!

Just sit on your Lloyds shares and ignore all the flak!

Storm in a teacup hardup!

The sp drop is clearly a victim of the economic reality dawning on folks that we have a gigantic tory fiscal black hole that needs to be plugged.

Less and less competition in UK banking / building sector is good for lloyds? It will be a pain who hold funds up to the protection limit in both, as now they'll have to move the funds.

Senior economist at Lloyds Bank Commercial Banking, said: “Although overall confidence fell this month, that fall was from a nine-year high and businesses remain positive about their own trading prospects."

Actually, it looks excellent!

Like I said before guys, Labour need to plug the 22BN black hole left by the tories.

It will be interesting to see the meat on the bone. of these new taxes.

I look forward Rachel sharing this insight with us.

"Chancellor may seek to equalise CGT with income tax rates, which would represent an increase in the tax burden on capital gains for wealthier individuals."

"For high-net-worth individuals, this could mean that gains on investments and property are taxed at 45%, depending on their income bracket."

IHT - Chancellor may not need to adjust rates to increase revenue

PENSIONS - talk of changes to the 25% tax-free lump sum along with the reintroduction of the lifetime allowance.

Chancellor may consider imposing a lifetime limit on ISA savings or reducing the annual allowance, which currently sits at £20,000.

The way I see it, Labour will be in power until 2032 or 2036.

If I was a right wing or Reform UK supporter!

"The 2024 election also saw Reform UK gaining about 4 million votes and roughly 14% of the total vote, maintaining the 4 million strong right wing voter bloc of 2015. Yet for all of these staggering votes, they only managed to get 5 seats."

Labour have 34% of the vote share but 63% of the seats!
