I think there will be a drop in sp here short term, but should recover as Thomson picks up ex TC customers.

I hope that something gets sorted for you all.

I like Thomas Cook and have used them several times in the past and always had good service from them.

Good luck to you all.

No idea mate. I'm into ITV & Mars as well And they too are up.

:-)

I've not heard anything Bamps

@ Solley.

I think I'll be to senile to give a 5hit by then.

this sounds like the most sensible option available to Boris Johnson.

He needs to strike up a pact with Nigel Farage with some level of urgency. As in today.

With the support of the Brexit party, he will then have a working majority, and can then call for a GE and then put forward a clear mandate.

I'm all for it.

@Slean.

Yes, this is the problem. Sh. It stirring snowflakes with nothing better to do than to show the world what smart Alecs they wish they were, but have no intellectual horsepower to back it up. It make you wonder how they find the time.

I actually remember Coms too. I was in there for a while myself. Not too many but still. Not one of my better investments, but I learned from the experience.

@Eviking.
Not much chance of that mate.

Apparently, he no longer wants a General Election now. A little strange in my view after crying like a baby for one for the past 2 years.

He's behaving like a spoiled child that throws his toys aside, then complains when his sibling starts to play with them.

It worries me that there are people that are stupid enough to blindly vote for such a man.

It's not just on here that so called free speech gets veto'd.

You can pick any media channel you like, same old story. A snowflake decides to start an argument on a given subject they clearly know nothing about. When challenged by a reasoned argument, they don't like having no valid opposing view, so rather than back down or shut up, they go looking for the "report" button.

I've had many posts removed/bans/blocked "friends"from a number of places because I've corrected such muppets.

Not that I haven't enjoyed such debates.

@ NigeCo.

Yes you are probably right. But we all know, or suspect that if there is at least one predator fishing, they'd go in low to test the water.

As you say, they'd be told in no uncertain terms where to go. But doubtless they're likely to try it on to see if/what they'd get away with. I would hope that our bod would tell them what sort of figure they'd consider. If they are serious, they would then come back with an offer somewhere near it.

Multiple bidders would of course be an added bonus.

I was rather hoping that LG had put a £1.40 per share offer in.

@Nigeco.

It's a hell of a gamble though, don't you think?

Even if there is a no deal scenario, Donald Trump, and others are standing in line waiting to strike up deals with us. Ok these will take time to set up, and there will be short term volatility in exchange rates, but enough to save a predator a bit more?

Even if that is true, I really don't see much of a saving to them. Then there is also the risk of further sp rises in the meantime. Even a 1 or 2 pence per share increase would add quite a bit to what they'd have to offer.

I just don't see it, but you can never know for sure can you?

You might be right. Lol

@NigeCo.

I would have thought that a predator would have acted by now, to be fair.

It makes no sense to me for them to hang about for much longer with a possible resolution to Brexit looming.

It would make more sense to me in their place to pounce now while the £/$ exchange rate and the sp here to be low rather than hanging fire and potentially paying an additional extra premium.

Just my take of course.

Yes, the PPI saga has dragged on for long enough. Too long, what the banks did back then was wrong, of course, but they've done the right thing and redressed the balance.

But same as always, with all those annoying adverts every 5 bloody minutes, plenty have waited right up to the death before acting. Time and time again it is the same story.

Which one mate? The one about Dianne Abbott being allegedly pretty once or not rising to the bait of a fool?

@Snige.

Yes I get the point about it being a long time ago with Corbyn & Abbott. Maybe she was prettier back then. I really don't want to look, in case I'm wrong. Some images once stored in the back of one's mind, never ever gets erased.

You're also right about fake news etc, but it's easy, with a little effort to get verification on the validity of a story.

And as for a straight talking politician that tells the truth, yes, it would be nice, but I'll believe it when I see one.

I'll wait........

@Jamesroo.

No. I can go much much deeper than that. Quite easily.

But past experience has taught me that doing so, usually does not end well for me. Because I usually end up hitting a nerve with a snowflake, and end up getting reported/banned, and it ain't worth the bother.
