I wonder how they managed to find any Labour voters to ask! must have been very tricky....

After doing the rough maths, I reckon the amount we're earning at the mo is a king's ransom.

The turnaround here has been amazing. Only recently I was showing a small loss on my shares and now I'm up 83%.

Long may it continue.

Hope someone hasn't got wind of another "accretive" deal by Rusty. The last lot of amazing deals were so good they cut the dividend by 2 thirds. Dread to think what any more deals would do.

Blimey this doesn't happen very often. A share I own is actually top of the leaderboard! Usually they're in the losers chart....

All well and good, but how do Tek shareholders benefit from that? What is the route to monetization? Unless Tek starts selling some of its holdings for profit and rewarding shareholders then what does it matter ?

Wouldn't want to be out of this over the long weekend.

Don't let me down Zephyr.

Does anyone know what the status of windfall taxes are in the Netherlands? Or was that just a one-off thing unlike the UK?

Nice tick up today and I can't get a quote to buy through HL. They'll take mine off me for 117.75 though.

Good old LSE. Never follows the USA up but will always follow it down.

MegRS I'm the opposite of your mate. I've put a few quid on cackling Kamala. If she wins I get a nice bit of compensation, if she loses I'll be very happy and it'll be well worth losing the bet.

Bonkers, and 20 quid the year after? Are you bigmoney in disguise?

Trek I've just had to pick myself up off the floor as not only did DEC start blue but it seems to have held it to the end of the day. Anyone know what the hell has happened to enable this? The second coming or something?

What time do you reckon DEC will go red today? My guess is 3.30pm. Any other takers?

20 quid would get me back to break-even, although I've had a fair few dividends on the way to help. Still down a bit overall though.

Skier I do hope you're right, even if you are being a bit ramp-tastic!

With all those amazing tax losses from the Tailwind stitch up, i mean acquisition, surely the dividends should be safe for a long time yet?

Does anyone know what the most anyone has paid per barrel in a North Sea takeover is? I'm sure even in the pre windfall tax era, almost $20 would have been seen as too high. Do Serica hold the record for the highest paid per barrel?

Maybe not a 7 day gain, more like a one day gain I reckon. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Came back from work and fired up the PC to check on share prices etc. Clicked on DEC and it's blue! What is going on?? Usually it's a case of guess how much we've dropped today but it's actually blue. Might get a lottery ticket tonight.

That would be a good way to work out MPs pay I reckon. Just work out the average for the last 20 years and make no adjustment for inflation. Would save taxpayers a fortune. Not as if they could complain if that's how they've worked out what level to set the windfall tax at. Could use the same formula for spending on public services as well.
