Boris having another party?

Recommends for Mac's post are a joke, who do you think he is Zhukov? .... ;o)

So Mac's suddenly become an army general, what next? What a joke....

I did love my Tonka trucks as a young boy...

Suspect he’s your twin Mac...!!

Couldn’t resist it!

Looks like the BOD are getting some grief on Twitter, I wonder why?

What about the Japanese Mark?

and what’s your reasoning behind that Chriszzr

Suspect the potential buyer(s) will not be thinking short term, if they are looking to buy assets then they will be thinking ten/twenty years ahead.

My last point Judge, clearly you are a big fan of Trumps 'less than green' energy policies. I'm sure the EUA BOD and shareholders (including myself) will not be so enthusiastic!

No mention about Joe Biden 'shutting down fracking'.

But look here Joe Biden has NOT stopped fracking rather he's ordered a moratorium on new oil and gas leases: https://edition.cnn.com/2021/01/27/business/fracking-ban-biden-federal-leasing/index.html

What do you mean 'turn on the fracking taps'?

German government would agree with you there given their reliance on Russian gas - extract from an article in the WSJ: "BERLIN—Germany’s dependence on Russian gas has left Europe short of options to sanction Moscow if it invades Ukraine—and itself vulnerable should Russia stop gas exports to the West.

A two-decade-old decision to phase out nuclear power and more recent moves to cut reliance on coal in an effort to bring down CO2 emissions mean Germany is now more reliant on Russian gas than most of its neighbors, not just for heating but also for power generation.

This year, the country’s last three nuclear power plants will be closed, just as Germany faces some of the highest energy prices in the developed world. All German coal plants are due to be closed by 2038.

With cheap gas reliably flowing from Russia for decades, successive governments never built an infrastructure to import more expensive liquefied natural gas from major exporters such as the U.S. or Qatar. The country currently has no LNG terminal of its own.

These factors have converged to make Germany the biggest buyer of Russian gas in the world. It draws more than half of its gas imports from Russia against around 40% on average for the European Union, according to the EU’s statistics agency Eurostat."

Just to remind you Bruno you said "I would think that there’s no way at the present time, any BOD would even consider releasing an RNS with the current tensions over in Eastern Europe."
Note 'any BOD'. Since you posted this there have been numerous RNS's released by companies, for example AMC.

EUA BOD would be in serious trouble with regulators and shareholders if they failed to comply with their disclosure obligations.

Hey Bruno how's that theory of yours about no BOD would release an RNS in the current climate standing up?

I could do with a ‘jorc’ or two to cheer me up... ;o)

...and of course Mac let’s not forget Russia’s annexing of Crimea in 2014!

I wonder if Judge could clarify his comment "Biden is also a petty man and the leak of him bribing ukrainian p/m with aid in return for a new prosecutor for hunter was probably unwise..." From memory I thought this was a widely debunked narrative and the main culprit was Trump himself https://www.factcheck.org/2020/10/trump-revives-false-narrative-on-biden-and-ukraine/ and if you have a spare couple of hours https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump%E2%80%93Ukraine_scandal

‘...no way...any Bod would release an RNS...’. That’s a hell of a statement Bruno. I can think of quite a number of scenarios where they would.

I must be going colour blind because I can see companies ‘in the red’ in all the UK indices including AIM.
