I have been a user of these gyms for the past 2 years and have noticed a massive increase in others using it in the past couple of months . Anyone seen this in their gyms ? If it’s a national trend good times could be ahead?
I don’t really see the benefit of buying shares for employees , would much rather link any bonuses to the dividend normal share holders receive and if they wish to reinvest the bonus they can.
I have a suggestion, don’t issue any shares but issue a bonus which is linked to the dividend , if they hold shares in treasury it could even pay for it .
I agree with lake 1.6 and 2 bil buy back. Anything less will have a negative effect on the SP any thing more a positive effect, fingers crossed, not long now.
I think it’s a case of trying to keep the head below the parapet and keep share holders relatively happy. 1.6 and a large buy back should keep everyone sweet (ish)
LTI There are review bodies that deal with public sector pay increases . Pay review bodies are corrupted and merely a puppet for whatever government is in office.
Yer it’s all great, just got to move with the times and we will all be happy. I used to be 5 foot 7 but now identify as 6”4” , trousers look a bit long but hey ho .
Anyone that thinks a law to stop striking is not about keeping pay awards down are frankly idiots. Just look at the pay awards of those that have lost the ability to strike.
Lti That’s the point I was making, as I said , I am not a royalist but if they make the country money then I am happy . I would have been comfortable with them having a new royal yacht.
Brixton, I am not a royalist by any stretch of imagination but the question you have to ask yourself with the royal family is do they offer value for money? Do they bring more money in than it costs to have them?
