“From memory and I could be wrong.....either FAREND or GATEBOY had it too”

mick-b.

I remember, it was ‘Gateboy13’ who had a long unpleasant experience with covid. We haven't heard from him lately.

"Nothing left but scaremongering"

Yup, that's exactly what the last outgoing labour government said "there's nothing left"

🤔 Obviously not, I have another a/c on ii.

Anyone having trouble getting quotes on HL this morning?

"Would be great to see some of these loud-mouthed gloaters who apparently“sold their final tranche at 55p' being now locked out and having to consider buying back in around the 60p mark”

talkingboutW.

I've never understood the term being locked out / locked in.

No-one gets locked in or locked out; you're free to buy or sell whatever the price.

Why is it that certain investors just can't bring themselves to sell at a loss or sell and are dismayed when the SP continues the rise.

What does it matter if you sell on the rise @55p and go long @60p if you believe the SP has further to run?

Many on this BB have been waiting years to recover their original investment through lack of action, and I'm not talking about day trading.

“the jobless rate for the three months to April rose to 4.4% from 4.3% between January and March, the highest reading since the three months to September 2021”

Ls.

These figures indicate an incoming labour government, employers are winding down and preserving their wealth.

However, If you take the yearly figures they showed a rise of payrolled employees of 201,00 (0.7%) between April 2023 and 2024.

How many of these hypocrites would have been able to attend if the labour private schools policy had been implemented at the time.

David Lammy – King’s School Peterborough.

Keir Starmer – Reigate Grammar School.

Alan Campbell – Aldenham School.

Thangam Debbonaire – Chetham’s Music School.

Anneliese Dodds – Robert Gordon’s College.

Louise Haigh – Sheffield High School.

John Healey – St Peter’s, York.

Hilary Benn – Westminster Under School.

Mustn't forget Lady Victoria Starmer, who attended Channing School as well.

More to come from this bunch.

Just more of the lies exposed.

And there's me thinking EU commissioners are appointed / chosen, not directly elected.

“Labour's Economic Collapse 2027/28?”

STP.

As he/she only buys the lows during severe economic turmoil, having purchased equities only twice this century. This will be the date for his next purchase. 🐂💩

Chips, in the scheme of things, with $2000 only recently breached, unless the war in Europe expands, $3000 is a big ask. Of course if you keep saying it long enough (longer than you've been saying it) it will come to fruition, but by that time we'll all be dead.

Just saying.

I agree why....?

Spare a thought for all those hardworking mortgage payers who have overextended themselves to get on the housing ladder. Who now find themselves struggling to keep all the trappings that go with their newly found status in society. Trappings that they can't possibly go without and are now probably about to vote for a party with no policies in the vain hope that things will get better. Hope being the correct word here, as they will find to their costs. With the inevitable rise in the unemployment rate that is an historic certainty under labour before they are voted once more into oblivion.

And so the circle begins.

AndAnotherThing regarding

capital gains and dividend allowances, you ain't seen nothing yet, the whole spectrum will be up for scrutiny to finance the expansion of the civil service and special advisors to back up their hair brain schemes and placidate the unions.

Re: HL, Glasshalfull.

If you do nothing, the income will be transferred on the 10th day of the following month to the relevant account. SIPP, ISA, Trading a/c etc.

It will show in that account as ‘cash available to invest.’

A taste of what's to come.

You can guarantee that Miliband will adopt more of this nonsense.

Some euro zone banks have fallen short of the European Central Bank's climate-related goals and may face fines.

These goals are a list of deadlines for factoring in risks relating to climate change, from floods and droughts to a transition to new energy sources, into the way they do business.

In the event of noncompliance, banks can be fined up to 5% of their daily turnover until the issue is resolved.

Labour will use every measure possible to raise monies for their socialist ideology.

Yeah, but your mind plays tricks on you, so it's meaningless STP.

He's on the ropes, 14 years just come up.

Starmer has no plans, all he's doing is talking about the past. So far, I've not heard the last 14 years yet.

P.s. I hope no-one asks him what a woman ♀️ is.

yeah i bought two times, 2010 or 2007/8 can't remember which but definitely during covid, our minds play tricks on us. oh and to quote “a few purchases in between”

as an active investor with a “balanced portfolio” stp,s words, not mine.

i've been sitting on my **** for the last 17 years and only been an active investor twice in that time.

your mind might play tricks on you, but the rest of us can see, crystal clear.

“I cannot believe you are all going over the same topics over and over again you will not get anywhere doing this same thing day in day out”

A bit like The "TREND IS YOUR FRIEND” eh checkricky!

“The average earner in the UK now has the lowest effective personal tax rate since 1975 — and one that is lower than in America, France, Germany or any G7 country.

Someone on £35,000 today — about the average for those working full-time — faces an income tax and national insurance bill getting on for £2,000 lower than would someone on the same real earnings back in 2010.

Just looking at changes enacted over this parliament, the national insurance cuts more than outweigh the income tax increases for middle earners, with gains peaking at around a handy £1,000 a year for anyone earning about £50,000. That is not a tax cut to be sniffed at.

Don't believe labour, read this from the IFS….
