imho, greed. The market appears to be holding it back.

Why is this not sitting at 360?

Nice to see that it appears known that a 2p divi was on the cards, odd how that happens.

@Holts, plenty of work for RM workers in Russia, Georgia & the Ukraine. There are plenty of potential workers in the UK.

Well done all holders on your good fortune with the IDS takeover by Kretinski! Looks like a lot are in line for 60% returns if they bought in at 225 or less. Wow.

You could do a lot worse than recycling your profits into an ITV position - and hoping to do the takeover double :)

Just for you hotshot6...

I have read that the offer is 3.70 is that correct?

Some subtle changes to the USO would see it going from valueless to worth £3billion plus. It is inevitable that things will have to change, the World has changed. Post is not the main form of communication and has diminished even faster because of Covid.
I have just booked a Holiday, everything done online, no need to show any paper anywhere, even the Visas!

How is 360p more substantially higher than 320p???

[casholaa] 15/5/2024 20:00

I hope so, I hope you're correct. This "proper person" test you mention is all a bit Russian or fascist or MacArthyism sounding.

HOLTS

The offer will be accepted , but will it be allowed ?
--------------------------------------------------------------

I think the Government would struggle to find a logical argument against it. He already passed the "proper person" test when he upped his stake and virtually every one of the essential services in the entire UK are owned by foreign investors already.

I will be perfectly happy to work under the new management but I think I will be in a minority. The look on the Union reps faces when the news broke this afternoon was absolutely priceless. Absolutely panic stricken. They all rushed off to have a meeting. (not doubt planning a series of protests, strikes and other forms of industrial skullduggery)

Me? Just loving it. 6 vans on the road and in a win win situation. Bring on the Union, bring on the Government. The only way is up.

If the offer goes through, I trouser an immediate 73% profit. If it doesn't, I will double or treble my investment when the ridiculous, outdated USO is shredded and thrown in the bin. I will have to wait longer but make more in the long run.

Good luck to all,

NMRN

I suspect the sale would have to go through before the next general election.

*we're not Georgia or Russia!

@isis the government is reflective of the electorate.

*not the Party of business.

[moorsie2] 15/5/2024 17:49

Govt have been cornered...

No lose situation for shareholders... Either it's waived through or blocked with very significant reforms to allow it to function and prosper

[isis] 15/5/2024 16:53

It could be IDS are trying to force Sunak's hand to introduce reforms which will inevitably happen anyway wherever this company ends up!
I have never known such a Pig ignorant bunch of W@nkers in power!

[casholaa] 15/5/2024 16:34

I'd have thought that we'd be sat at 360p.

[casholaa] 15/5/2024 16:33

I guess they just wanted a little more money as they've been highlighting the difficulty of dealing with our current political regime which may end up a lot worse with the next lot that get in and start to order us all about.

[isis] 15/5/2024 16:26

So what happened to the Big Defence from IDS and 'substantially undervalued at 320p' with only 40p more??

[crystball1] 15/5/2024 16:03

I am staying on board. I think the offer will be accepted.

[casholaa] 15/5/2024 15:59

I misread it. Have another look at what rns shows for keith williams
