Michele H , Tuesday, April 21, 2020, 09:03:While the people of the UK have lived under austerity measures for many years degrading services for them, their taxpayer money has been funding "bribery" off book funding to the corrupt EU! The EU in turn doesn't bother even trying to audit and balance its books as the money keeps pouring in and corruption is seen as a perk! It is well over due for taxpayers money to be redirected and kept in the UK until all services are brought up to date and the welfare of UK citizens is prioritised. The bribing/funding of criminal dictatorship regimes needs to stop immediately.

Alphorn: Testing will get the world economies moving. A vaccine will improve quality of life. Agree there is a place for both with increased reliance on the latter as time goes on.

BBC is remain orientated and sympathetic to the idea of the EU super-state. When was the last time anyone heard the BBC lauding the fact that we are world leaders in some areas? The thought of UK being successful outside the EU makes them cringe.

smarty - this is not a thread that deals in facts. You should know that by now. Emotions only.

"aljm...BBC is EU funded...."
6 upticks.....
What are you people on?

Reality Check: Does the BBC get European Union funding?

BBC public service news programmes are not allowed to take any external funding, including from the EU.

BBC World Service is funded by the licence fee and some UK government money. Money is also raised by advertising outside the UK and by commercial activities.

It's London South East as opposed to the London Stock exchange site.

Wow ...who would ever have thought of looking at the LSE information
I guess the only other thing you could do is google for an answer??
Maybe you still have a mobile library visit your hamlet?

Patient - I posted up something on my thread this morning. It is very interesting how some, like Avacta, are targeting testing while others a vaccine. Very different animals and probably very different investment returns.
In the real world we need them both in the short term.

Alp., if it succeeds, it does. A serious partner as well.

[mr.elbee] 22/4/2020 11:14

or a Labour government xxxxxxxxxxxy..that is what is behind it all.

[alphorn] 22/4/2020 11:04

Patient - the last bit of the RNS is the target - .......for implementation in a point-of-care test strip, similar in appearance to a pregnancy test, giving a visual read-out in minutes using a sample such as saliva.

For investors - Avacta owns the intellectual property relating to the SARS-COV-2 Affimer reagents and retains all commercial rights.

Sounds good.

Richard1Posted April 22, 2020 at 7:35 am | PermalinkWhat has been eye-opening is the uselessness of many of our large centralised quangos. We have seen PHE turning its nose up at private sector involvement in producing tests, refusing to send out samples needed to do that, the absurdity of even large established firms willing and able to produce PPE being unable even to speak to anyone in the NHS, the recruitment of 750,000 volunteers who then aren't contacted whilst in the meantime many people on the 1.5m vulnerable list can't get online deliveries. Examples are legion of our bloated and incompetent public sector management. No doubt individuals are well-intentioned and doing their best, but the conclusion must be that statist centralism where any problem is blamed on the Secretary of State or even the PM, is a recipe for dreadful performance and waste.

Is this how this share trades daily? ie, a .02p channel?

[ladeside] 22/4/2020 10:45

LSE, however the software only determines a "buy" or "sell" based upon the side of the listed spread it falls.

This can often give a false reading due to the official spread not actually being accurate in reality.

BobPosted April 22, 2020 at 9:30 am | PermalinkThrough excessive tax and regulation successive governments have driven manufacturing businesses offshore to rather more laissez-faire environments.Import and distribution, nail bars, tattoo parlours, tourism and coffee shops do not make for a resilient economy and will be of little use in times of emergency, as we have now seen. We are about to pay a huge price for years of complacency by politicians who cannot see beyond the next election.Warren Buffet famously remarked –" "You only find out who is swimming naked when the tide goes out."
