This Tory green revolution will turn Britain into a Third World country

The collapse of the once-free West into a conformist wasteland is grim enough by itself, for anyone who believes in free thought and assembly.

For reasons I have never discovered, our Government is more rigid about this than almost any other. Unlike many advanced countries, we have written our carbon-reduction targets into law, making it much harder to pull out of them if things get tough.

My guess is that it is the means by which we in the West will join the Third World, finally and irrevocably. How amusing that this should be brought about by a government that calls itself Conservative, and claims to be patriotic.

Boris has served his purpose in 'getting Brexit done' now it's time for him to go. We all knew that he was a buffoon but he was the best available at the time. I'm not convinced that there is a true Conservative amongst the rest of them.


'This is Carrie flexing her muscles': Boris's fiancee 'put him up' to attack on Cummings that sparked devastating response accusing PM of incompetence, covering up No 10 mole to protect her pal and calling her lavish flat revamp 'possibly illegal'

Part of the slow descent into sheep shagging.

Have a nice weekend.

Barclays Q1 results

Friday: Barclays has been one of the better performers for UK bank shareholders over the last year. Earlier this month the bank reversed all its post-pandemic declines, hitting its highest levels since late 2019 on the back of rising optimism over the health of the UK economy, as well as the outperformance of US investment banks and their recent strong numbers. As one of the few UK banks with an investment banking division, the failure of activist shareholder, Ed Bramson, to force the slimming down of the business has resulted in a much better outcome for the bank, given the recent increases in volatility and steepening of the yield curve. This hasn’t stopped Bramson from continuing to bang that particular drum, however he’s on much shakier ground by suggesting the bank goes down the Deutsche route, given the litany of problems there. Whatever his views about trading businesses in general, managed correctly they have helped the larger banks operate a diverse business model, as well as increase profitability.

This was reflected in its last set of numbers, when Barclays reinstated the dividend with a 1p payout as well as a £700m share buyback, despite setting aside over £4.8bn in non-performing loans. Pre-tax profit for 2020 fell to £3.1bn from £4.4bn, while investment bank profit rose to £4bn. CEO Jes Staley was also bullish about 2021, citing the prospects for the economic reopening. With US banks rotating capital out of their loan loss provisions, banks in the UK do something similar. Barring a setback in the form of a new variant or another lockdown, the outlook looks much brighter now than it did at the beginning of the year.

Probably one of the fastest share buy backs I've seen. Reckon they should do another one.

Did the post office not realise that with over 700 cases of missing money that there was clearly a computer issue or did senior management they just bury their heads in their hands. I hope the Post Office heads of security were dealt with appropriately, but I guess not...
