The Queens speechBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: DECEMBER 16, 2019Today I am giving you the opportunity to send in your ideas of what legislation the government should propose for the new ParliamentWe know there will be priority for Brexit legislation , and the government has decided to bind itself in law to increases in NHS spending.I would like to see a Constitutional Reform Bill. This would repeal the Fixed Terms Parliament Act which did so much damage in the last Parliament. An Act designed to keep elections to one every five years has instead allowed three in four years. It could legislate to reduce the number of MPs by 50 as promised before. It should limit the Speakers powers by requiring a government moved Money Resolution and Queens consent to legislation.I would like a simpler and lower taxes bill to incorporate the various tax measures I have proposed.I want to see better protection for armed services personnel against legal challenge, once cleared by an enquiry.I favour new legislation on the BBC to decriminalise the licence fee.

It doesn't matter what the share price is to traders , Lloyd's has been dutifully supplying trading opportunities with Brexit uncertainty. They have to recognize Friday has alleviated some of this uncertainty, don't forget were moving onto quarterly dividends which will should help steady the ship as well. Slowly all the ammunition the traders need has been spent or confiscated, Expect EU/ German Banks to be next thing deployed by the traders.

SR: are you short on LLOY? Sounds like you could be.

It looks as though Boris is thinking of doing something about foreign aid. If he does - cuts it in half, say - he'll be one of the most popular PMs ever.

if share price doubles in 3yrs that's a
return of 33% a yr,
the divi alone will beat any savings rate,
downside is REAL inflation is over 10% a yr
held from going higher by increased value of £

The other half at 39

"Thinking of selling about half holding at 75. Only maybe. Maybe"

Check the tea leaves on Monday morning. :)

Just not seeing it. But as ever nobody is right until time unfolds the truth

[jl5006] 15/12/2019 22:01

SR
That is why I have invested in LLOY - UK bank.

[sentimentrules] 15/12/2019 21:36

Not sure on how tied up some UK banks are in Europe. To what financial affect but I think still affected badly

Such is global econ now

[sentimentrules] 15/12/2019 21:32

I fail to see how European issue wouldn't be contagious. To market sentiment anyway

[jl5006] 15/12/2019 21:31

SR
U have to believe Carney made sure that banks were ok subject to the stress tests. These were UK banks.
He has no control over European banks - and therein lies the risk in Europe.
lagarde is a lawyer and old - with ???s in her CV. The threat is to the Euro - and if we are away from EU that threat is less.
threat not this week but in the near future - IMO

That'll keep her off the streets in foul weather!

[jrphoenixw2] 15/12/2019 21:23

i/d high (on LSE, not via an in-house broker retail book) was 69.99. Expect there are some big sell orders in at 70p getting hoovered out.

[sentimentrules] 15/12/2019 21:23

I just believe what I see in markets.

Surely for the most part it can't be argued? As it's history.

Just down to how we all view that looking forward

Yes if I was holding something I look at it as if I want to short it. At my most pessimistic . Keeps bias at bay in position

[cheshire pete] 15/12/2019 21:21

Maybe she could rent a duck house from one of her fellow MPs and save a few bob lol.

[jl5006] 15/12/2019 21:19

SR ur thoughts are as positive as those of the M2 maestro.
If u were a shareholder and believed the postings u would be out asap.
Now that the deed has been done - ie the 2nd referendum - just comment about the scots - til the share price rises

[xxxxxy] 15/12/2019 21:18

Thinking of selling about half holding at 75. Only maybe. Maybe

[sentimentrules] 15/12/2019 21:14

And the centrals can't figure a way out of the rotten rut

A temporary fix now a bigger issue than subprime year

[sentimentrules] 15/12/2019 21:13

Much more exposed to debt defaults than 2008. And nobody will admit it.

They are not capitalised for a default run in its true measure.

The true reason of a panic year in year easing and rates

[cheshire pete] 15/12/2019 21:13

Oh Kevin De Bruyne!

[cheshire pete] 15/12/2019 21:11

SR Banks better capitalised now than in 2008. Less exposed to a downturn, were it to happen.

[gotnorolex] 15/12/2019 21:07

stonedyou just found this..... For MPs claiming rental costs in the London Area, the annual accommodation costs budget is £22,920.
