Lloyds Banking Share Discussion Threads

with lloyds moving to quarterly dividends next year, I expect them to increase the divi to make it worthwhile, so my guess is no buybacks next year which means a significant increase in the yield with the share price then playing big-time catchup

“no intention of meeting EU leaders in person”...I217;m going to scream n scream n scream until I get my own way!

Stocks are set for a higher start as the pound continues to reel under the pressure of the new government's plans for Brexit, with the pound trading down by 0.57% to 1.0901 against the single currency and by 0.60% to 1.2146 versus the US dollar.

The pound hasn’t exactly been flavour of the month in recent weeks anyway, but these losses have accelerated further since the weekend.

Boris Johnson said he had no intention of meeting EU leaders in person until they showed a willingness to change their position on the Irish backstop, and withdrawal agreement.

This hard line, so late in the day, appears to have prompted a sudden realisation that a no deal Brexit has suddenly become a much more likely event.

The UK is a Family of BRITISH nations MARRIED to each other. WE speak the same language in more ways than just English.

The EUSSR is a cobbled togtheter Project of social engineering and consequences of The Warring of Germany. They killed 20+ million Russians in WW2. And now Merkel wants a European Army eventually to have a rematch with Russia. And there is more.

The EUSSR is not worth spitting on. It degrades democracy. The EUSSR is Evil all dreessd up in something pseudo- liberal.

EUSSR = FAECES

The EU banked on parliament rejecting no deal. Now that’s all changed


Fearing that a bounce in the polls will give Boris Johnson a mandate for a hard Brexit, Europe is starting to soften its stance

Let's transform UK agricultureBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: JULY 30, 2019All the time we have been in the EU the Common Agriculture Policy has kept the UK under controls which have not suited us. Market share has fallen. We have seen more and more temperate food brought in from the continent, reducing our home market share. Food miles have increased, our roads have been clogged with more foreign trucks travelling longer distances with food imports.Much of our salad needs and flowers now come in from the Netherlands. Many of our vegetables come in from Spain. Large amounts of dairy produce come from France. Beef comes in from several countries, and pork arrives especially from Denmark. Many of these items are things we could grow or rear for ourselves. The Netherlands has no climate advantage over us. Low value vegetables should not be cheaper when hauled hundreds of miles from Spain.Once we are free to set our own tariffs we can remove all tariffs on food we cannot produce for ourselves. There should be  no further need for taxes on  citrus fruits, for example. We may also well decide to have lower average tariffs on temperate food than the EU makes us impose, as we will be levying them on  the EU as well as on the rest of the world.We will also decide on our own levels of farm subsidy and how it should be allocated. The new UK system should place a premium on increasing our market shares. There should be tax and subsidy inducements to increase output and to mechanise farms. The UK should harness AI and robotics to the cause of farm improvement, building two industries at the same time. Intelligent use of  newly targeted subsidies and sensible tariffs could give us a big boost with more home grown food and more domestic development of the technology a new farm should deploy.We need more investment in extending the growing seasons for vegetables, fruit and flowers and other market gardening activities. We could grow more with the right glasshouses and polytunnels, just as the Dutch do with similar weather
