So Coronavirus is going to be the next excuse to screw the banks. A search of companies house shows companies being set up in reddiness to make missold claims down the line.
Coronavirus Claims Ltd
Coronavirus Refunds Ltd
Coronavirus Compensation Ltd

There will be lots more.

Banks aren't allowed to ask for personal guarentees under this goverment 80 / 20 scheme so whats to stop companies just winding up and starting a new phoenix company once they have had the money.
Going to be a tough few years in this sector!!

K38

Write off the next 12 months here .
But assuming dividends get restored to at least 3 p , within 10 years you get the Dire Straits scenario .

Money for nothing and your shares for free.

Ways to damage the economyBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: APRIL 23, 2020Yesterday I published a study of the damage done to the UK economy by the boom and bust policies of past decades. It was part of a series of papers commissioned by the Centre for Policy Studies and published on Capx. It will  be followed by a web based event next Wednesday at 5pm. I looked at the Oil and Secondary banking crash of 1974, the Exchange Rate Mechanism boom and bust of 1989-92,  and the Great Recession and banking crash of 2005-9. In each case the Bank of England allowed easy money and credit to excess, then reined it in too quickly, causing a damaging downturn and creating massive instability in the financial system.I contrasted these big errors of the Bank with the more supportive policy of the new Governor, working closely with the government and so far keeping things liquid enough to avoid a financial and banking meltdown. I made my case that there is no such thing as an independent Central Bank serving  a single country. All Central Banks are state owned and answerable to those who run the government. They can appear to be independent for a bit if there is political agreement about their task and their performance, but as soon as a major policy issue or disagreement about economic policy arrives action will be taken to make the Bank supportive of government.Today the damage to the main  economies of the wrold  is the direct result of government policy to control the virus. The role of the Central Banks is to ensure the recessions brought on by lock downs do not turn into a financial crash as well. So far a hyperactive Fed and accommodating Central Banks elsewhere show they are  determined to  avoid a crash. They are also showing they wish to co-operate with their governments, seeing monetary and fiscal policy as important and complementary mechanisms.

If you hold, long that is, comeback in a year time.

Is there anything about Lloyd's share price in this thread?

[k38] 22/4/2020 23:28

No it wasn't. If blair didn't support bush would have been no war.. Bush and Blair they kill more people than Saddam on his life time.

No one is saying it is moral. Just the right thing to do on balance IMO.

[k38] 22/4/2020 23:12

Minerva open your f#cking eyes..US greate wars to benefit the few.. leaving behind death and misery for year to come.Blair (and his comedian government at the time time) has a lot of blood on his hands. He knew what he was doing!!

[minerve 2] 22/4/2020 22:54

Only a mass murderer in your little mind Pierre.

And of course, if Blair hadn't have acted and followed your lead we would all sit and congratulate ourselves about peace whilst Saddam continued to gas Kurds by the hundreds of thousands.

What a hypocrite.

[minerve 2] 22/4/2020 22:38
