Lloyds Banking Share Discussion Threads

Back to Lloyd’s. I am waiting with some anticipation the results in February having just revisited the February 2019 RNS and underlying fundamentals. With PPI out of the way and over 1 billion shares purchased and hopefully further cost reductions I think we may be in for a fairly nice surprise and a new share price floor in the mid 60’s forming a strong platform going forward. Anyone think I’m way out on this ??

Labour numbskulls too thick to realise that hard labour socialism is as attractive as the pox. Unless labour can decouple itself from the unions they will gradually whither on the vine. If they behave themselves, we could have 3 terms of Tory Government which is cause for celebration imho.

Freddie01: "Easily solved yes dont sell alcohol at airports or on planes.

I don't agree with that at all. I'm flying in March and look forward to two or three pints at the airport before going."

Well said Freddie, used to work out in the Middle East and on the return flight after a spell on leave ex-pats sometimes had a skinfull on the flight and what with the jet lag by the time they came round they were already looking forward to the next leave lol. Never any trouble on the plane though.

LLOY not much movement today.

She is Corbyn's love child with Margaret Becket can't you see the resemblance.

[diku] 07/1/2020 21:18

She always looks like she has top heavy make up on...

Rebecca Long Bailey is the worst choice Labour could make. So she’s bound to win

Funny how things turn out. In the leadership contest of 2020, the Labour Left find themselves in the exact same position as Labour moderates did in the leadership contest of 2015. Dazed from an unexpectedly heavy election defeat; devoid of new ideas; and with precisely zero stand-out candidates from their side of the party.

Which is why they’re having to make do with one as drab as Rebecca Long Bailey. Then again, maybe the drabness is the appeal. After all, many on the Left are convinced that Labour only lost the election because of media attacks on Jeremy Corbyn’s character. “Well, they won’t be able to attack Becky Long Bailey’s character! Because she hasn’t got one!”

Henry Law 7 Jan 2020 5:26PM@A Gunn They have rigged the system against themselves!  German banks have had to lend to other Eurozone countries in order to maintain demand for German products, but they now hold vast amounts of debt that can never be repaid.Germany has the disadvantage of a currency that is undervalued (for them) by at least 10%, possibly more. This means that Germans are working at least half a day a week for nothing. German workers are, literally, being short changed. What will happen when they notice?How has this situation arisen? EU and Chinese economic policy is based on the conception of trade and economics known as 'mercantilism', which held sway in the seventeenth century. The underlying principle is that the aim of economic policy should be to bring money into the country, for example, by importing gold and silver, as the Spanish and Portuguese did. Nowadays, mercantilist policy concentrates on exporting as much as possible and thereby maintaining a persistent balance of payments surplus. It was ultimately the downfall of Spain and Portugal, which had devoted vast resources to shipping precious metals across the Atlantic. But this ultimately proved to be a futile effort; gold cannot be eaten, or used to for shelter, or fuel, or worn to keep out the cold. All that happened was that prices rose. In its modern incarnation, it has left the German banks full of worthless paper.Mercantlist theory was had been refuted several times over before the eighteenth century was over.

Forgot to add before we left the plane , the Russians got arrested after landing .
Still think I tower look a like was A Marshall , as it was after the 911 attacks. The guy was nearly 7ft and built like a wall.

His words to me were , do you think you and your mate could handle one each, i will handle the others .

Like most things people look to penalise everyone because of a few idiots that can't control themselves.

[utrickytrees] 07/1/2020 18:04

Your not allowed on with 125ml of toothpaste but your waved through with 12 pints of stella & 6 jaeger bombs....strange.

[utrickytrees] 07/1/2020 17:38

If it was that easy, we wouldn't be having the debate ctr.

[crossing_the_rubicon] 07/1/2020 17:36

Why would there be a 3 or 4 hour delay???

Turn up at the check in, blatantly intoxicated, no boarding pass, none of your luggage is loaded, and you're told to come back when sober. 3-4hour delay?

Where?

We don't need alcohol free flights either.. FFS.

We just need people to have personal discipline and bloody behave. It isn't difficult.

[patientcapital] 07/1/2020 17:31

Exactly. A failure by the UAE ground staff who also should be disciplined.

[utrickytrees] 07/1/2020 16:46

Why is it? Most Metropolitan pubs & clubs employ security staff.

[crossing_the_rubicon] 07/1/2020 16:38

Utrick

"If they must serve alcohol they should provide inflight security instead of relying on the good will of their passengers."


Surely the onus is on the passengers to have manners and behave????
