Popcorn anyone?

Tories are finished, Reform UK will get maybe 5 seats and Labour will sweep to power!

What is there not to like about it?

"but it’s worth remembering Lloyds shares trade at a pretty low price which currently sits at 55p."

We have a phrase where we refer to 'plastic paddies', which is clearly derogatory, but used to describe those who have sometime a rather tedious like to claiming 'irishness', but masquerade as genuinely Irish. Can't think of an equivalent for those that pretend to be British, for window dressing purposes, but are clearly not...?

Well lloyds would not win any beauty contest, for to closing price this week...

However, I remain solidily of the view that lloyds will continue to inch upwards, and snatching that periodic dividend is a bonus!

LeeRex, you're imagination is running wild. It's not me reporting all these posts. All you've said is that there is now uncontrolled migration and you don't agree with labour policies. Nothing wrong with your post.

Bradford, notice some with flat caps and others with bowler hats.

The hats, trams, carts and horses and town centres are gone , but nothing has really changed!

"Canada ‘93 style wipe out,"

Happy days!

Milkshake anyone?

Not sure why you keep talking down this share????

Analysis indicates we have nothing to worry about!

I support Labour, but Starmer is a t055er!

One further payment today described as "SEC DIV PMNT "

MV, I stand corrected, yes it was the 2007/2008 crash.

Our minds play tricks on us, especially when you are on public transport, on the mobile.

I know hardup, it's a bitter pill to swallow, when you realise that STP trumped you, when it comes to investment decisions. Try to keep your chin up, hardup!

The comment was a bit tongue in cheek... But you do limit the risk by having a broad portfolio across multiple sectors. After that the stock market goes thru its bull/bear cycle periodically.

Ah, I bought at two times, during the 2010 crash and the covid crash. You can hardly call that gambling. A few purchases in between, but majority of holdings were bought during the crashes.

I don't believe in gambling.

Seems these days you can get a 'gender recognition certificate'.

So you can be born one gender, and then get a certificate, to say you are another gender???

Sure MD, I guess we all have our own agendas, as to where we would like the share price to go.

But posting on here is not going to make a jot bit of difference to the share price movements.

It is sort of delusional thinking, to even imagine it might.

48, while others speak of 70 or even 80...
