That’s what makes a poor investor 1crackupboom...can’t see the sky for the trees

Bought at 600, waiting for double

[2000max] 01/3/2021 08:36

Wee Kranky is far far worse

[1crackupboom] 27/2/2021 00:58

How can this be 1000 given all the waste of the last year. 400 would be a fair price. As soon as news of reopening hits the price will fall. Buy rumour sell news

tlobs - everyone, en masse, is stupid and ignorant. Why do you think pollution, corruption, greed, cruelty etc. exist? Because they are all human nature.

Blaming people for general ills misses the point, in just the same way that the 2008 financial crisis was blamed on greedy bankers. Human nature needs to be controlled, or it runs riot. Do you honestly believe that New Zealand would've remained practically Covid-free if Jacinda hadn't acted early and decisively?

Whether closing borders etc. is a practical solution is another matter, but it can't be denied that Kiwis, Chinese, Thais etc. have maintained a semblance of normal life based largely on their domestic economies.

What does the UK goverment do? Puts a few people in hotel quarantine 11 months too late, when there is more Covid here than in most other countries. In fact, the farcical hotel quarantine system probably causes more virus spread than letting people go home to isolate. And if they don't isolate, whether having come from abroad or not, why might that be? Perhaps the fact that many cannot afford to, and don't get re-imbursed, is one reason. If you were on a zero-hours contract and you had a fever, would you go to work or let your family starve?

These are blindingly obvious issues that the government just ignores, because they are either incompetent or are just pretending to do something. Test and trace is virtually useless when cases go over a few thousand a day, and yet it's been held up to be "world-leading". Give us a break!

None of this is much good for Easyjet, of course, but the point remains the same: the UK has had one of the worst pandemic responses in the world.

I never had you down as a rabid communist Taurus ;-)

It's the stupid and ignorant people in the UK that have spread the virus not the Government.

Let me see, what consitutes a "great job" ?

Could it be the record number of deaths for a country of the UK's size?

Or maybe the 3 drastic lockdowns, brought about by a refusal to act early and decisively?

Or maybe spending hundreds of billions of taxpayers money on these disasters, including contracts-for-mates, no accountability and no parliamentary or legal process?

Yes, Boris has done a great job. Top class!

No wonder the Jocks want out...

[tlobs2] 25/2/2021 08:42

once bitten1 you might not like Boris, however, he is British and can read and write.

Try proof reading your posts before hitting the post button ;-)

[chiefbrody] 25/2/2021 08:10

True.Sometimes i think we'd be better off without them. All.

[justin1117] 25/2/2021 08:04

Good luck finding a politician who is "in touch"

[srpactive] 24/2/2021 21:25

I disagree, but everyone has a view, which I accept with
no problem.

[chiefbrody] 24/2/2021 20:19

Indeed. And i voted for him. I'm ashamed.

[once bitten1] 24/2/2021 20:12

I hope so . Boris is a over privileged buffoon who is completely out of touch with reality and the common man / woman he is purportedly representing . A political lightweight..

[chiefbrody] 24/2/2021 13:52

He's changed since then active.

[tlobs2] 24/2/2021 13:14

I think Boris has done a great job in difficult circumstances. The decision to get to the front of the queue for vaccine was certainly a master stroke.

[srpactive] 24/2/2021 12:53

No a liberal, I have no problem with Boris myself, I
have been told he did very well as London major.

[chiefbrody] 23/2/2021 21:31

Indeed. Sadly a lefty is in power at moment.

[srpactive] 23/2/2021 21:24

The lefts dream.

[chiefbrody] 23/2/2021 18:37

So so many more hurdles to overcome.If our government and the EU botch up this summer it'll be a bloodbath.Genuinely think there could be social unrest if people are denied their freedoms for any longer.

[srpactive] 23/2/2021 17:01

A nice close above 928p, bodes well going forward.

The Government to sort out vaccine passports between April 12th and May 17th? I wouldn't put any money on that.

[srpactive] 23/2/2021 09:03

Yes the Autumn schedule will be blockbusting for all vaccinated
going on multiple holidays over that period to make up for lost time.
So a holiday before and after Christmas for the people who can afford to
holiday.

EasyJet chief executive Johan Lundgren said: “We have consistently seen that there is pent-up demand for travel and this surge in bookings shows that this signal from the government that it plans to reopen travel has been what UK consumers have been waiting for.

“The Prime Minister’s address has provided a much-needed boost in confidence for so many of our customers in the UK with demand for flights up 337% and holidays up 630% already compared to last week and beach destinations proving most popular for this summer.”

He added: “While the summer may be a little while off, we will be working around the clock to ensure we will be ready to ramp up our flights to reconnect friends and family or take them on a long-awaited holiday to remember.”
