If the above is true, this thread will R.I.P

T'was foretold on this BB from around 220p. Under 165p in the coming weeks imo.

[bookbroker] 25/1/2016 15:13

Well, if that is the case, then Barc. is history, it will not exist in five years, I'm disinclined to believe that that level!

Yes moneyweek got his boys paying £365 for three months and has Barc on the shorters list to 46p

That's looks like a "inverted cup and handle pattern"

Those are predictions. I don't think they will materialise. Only if the British population birth rate drop dramatically. Also the people who don't integrate will find it difficult to get on in life.

I saw something about the Banks looking at putting aside further £5bn for PPI as they expect more claims as and when a 2 year time limit is approved. This may cost Lloyds £2.5Bn.

@ Informant - I recall an article that looked at birth rates for various parts of society and how that would translate into the ethnic / religious mix in the longer term. You may want to google it.

Lloyds hit by downgrade. It affecting all banks today

[seccol] 25/1/2016 13:07

Don't say never.

55p coming. Bailout now if you haven't done so.

[bookbroker] 25/1/2016 13:06

Damn right that landlords are being taxed, they are the root cause of these ridiculous house prices, fully taking into account the shortage, but even new shoeboxes with no storage space, garden, off-road parking are going to bring a housing crash, people should wise up and live in a luxury motor home, no council tax, and free to come and go!

Thanks. I needed a little support.

My heart bleeds for you, Imformant.

Cameron making it difficult for us landlords. My next property (number 4) I will have to pay over £7000 tax. Also in 2020 they are going to tax the complete rent. The future is not great for our children. Although mine will get lots of houses.
