Can always fall further UK \liebour regard business as cash cows for their Worker Friends.

Worries that main shareholder and manager wants to sell and did not get an offer that was acceptable to him - Also reports that German changes that some document photo's need to be taken by regulated state agencies and competitors stating to eat into their markets.

Closing auction today 151 - Price on 10th Nov 165 - Looking like a real "Pinch ME" !!

Now for the holdings rns's

Insurance contracts often have negligence get out clauses - Need far more details as to how the faults were missed for so so long and why they believe they have valid claims - This could drag on for years if either side go to law.
