Yes it makes them feel good when seen by others...then a visit to Mac Donalds...

This is only the start of the what's to come, those who think things will get back to normal in a few weeks are living in a dream world & don't want to face up to reality just like Trump,, this share is going to struggle, I think I'll look elsewhere to invest as this looks like it has very little to offer any investor & could end up in a pickle with these car loans for one plus many other variables waiting to get exposed,
good luck to those invested as you will need every bit of it.

I’m not a pensioner M5 I’m making a point a lot of youngsters don’t save they want everything now three holidays a year 2 new cars on the drive on lease and then the new house on help to buy work it out

[nemesis6] 01/4/2020 10:10

are you surprised asa? the generation before has rinsed it. Hoovered up all the property and pensions. The reason they don't want/cant save is theyre too busy paying rent to the greedy old landlords...have no pensions thanks to the boomer generation and face working till 75...if they can get a job. Still as long as their paying the mortgages of the landlords and their spoilt offspring that's ok.

M5,

Post 597: If you are a pensioner your personal overheads are likely to be low

Where do you get that assumption from? In a lot of cases the overheads are the same if not greater. When you go to work you save on heating.
Most retired people are either at home keeping warm or going to activities like gyms, holidays, restaurants, cafe’s etc.

When at work, you don’t have these expenditures because you don’t have the time. You are spending time earning money whilst pensioners are spending time spending it. Think about how much you spend when having the regular fortnights holiday.

Workers and pensioners can’t do much now, but the point I am making is don’t stereotype pensioners by a miss conceived perception. Many pensioners I know are far busier and active than when they were working.

For my part I thank heavens I had difficulty setting up my share ISA and had to wait 9 or 10 days for Halifax to do the paper work, I was going to buy in at 52p at the time just before all this happened about 4 weeks ago. Since i have resisted pressing the button at 40p-35p and 30p and intend sitting tight for a while to re assess.

even without all this, Corbyn would have had the same effect on the UK economy, thank FK he was NOT elected, if he was, we would all be looking for flint to make tools now.....

[diku] 01/4/2020 09:38

Corbyn probably thinking good job Labour didn't win the election...who wants to deal this 24/7...

I wonder what action Jeremy Corbyn and labour would have taken.

Jeremy.. business.. virus.. DISASTER!

[aljm] 01/4/2020 09:32

nice work if you can get it,(joking) as you see, i have far too much time on my hands, BUT why is the media banging on about Covid 19 24/7 ? ever heard the saying, "he who protests too much" ? i dont trust the UK media as far as i can throw them, nor i am 100% on the 'other' agenda, but i feel i trust the 'other' more than i trust the MSM, they were so full of totally biased views during brexit, it was laughable, just look how they hosted 'Question time' that tells the story to me, so what is the outcome ? we will have wait and see. but i know one thing , without change , once we come out of the other side, the world will be a different place.....

[scruff1] 01/4/2020 09:28

Bit unfair to show the guy the door. Noone could have predicted this shambles. The only light - albeit a dim one, is that this is time limited in its worst form.
Jezza wanted to control the banks. Corvid done it for him. And the railways. Borrowing unlimited. Dividend collectors pay. NHS first funded in future. The red wall voters knew what they were doing.!!!

My son works for a prestigious bit of the civil service, mainly PhDs there. His boss is 28, a high flyer fast track, 50kpa plus bonus in the west country, left his steam security open. He was on 80 hours last week playing steam games. Working from home of course.

[aljm] 01/4/2020 09:23

you think they need to deploy 100's of tanks to distribute food and help ?

Why all the Military planes flying in 'medical specialists ' ?

Keep watching West

[pierre oreilly] 01/4/2020 09:22

What is the real agenda?

[aljm] 01/4/2020 09:18

if you believe the Conspiracy theorists, then lockdown COULD end mid April, only time will tell on that one, the Virus is a distraction, there real agenda is going on in the background, awaiting news on or around 11th April.......

Can i take my tinfoil hat off now ?

[pierre oreilly] 01/4/2020 09:17

LLoy and other banks have enough cash to pay divis and keep the business going. What they don't have enough cash for is to bail out the country, and this is effectively what they are being ordered to do - lend to business at cheap rates.

Boris is really getting shafted by his civil service advisers, they are showing him who's boss, seemingly without him noticing.

He needs to step back and look at what he has been advised to create.

Good job, the civil service deserves a big bonus this year.

[w1ndjammer] 01/4/2020 09:15

I will give it a week, and then people will start getting angry. Someone needs
to come up with an exit route fast.......

[aljm] 01/4/2020 09:11

long term this is still a good choice, this blip is temporary, look at 2008, the same sort of thing happened then, still bounced back to 70-80p, if you want fast profit , this is not the one, looking for cash in couple of years, not a bad choice IMO.

[diku] 01/4/2020 09:11

Showing the door does not solve the problem....he/she moves onto the next project...not only ban the share buybacks but also ban bonuses and freebie share options...who are the beneficiaries ??...they get paid a salary/fee/perks don't they??...




Lets hope the clown who thought it was a good idea to spend £1bn on share buybacks at 60p will be shown the door.

Without action people would be dying like flies.. it's true the old and weak going first but no age is safe.
....................


Evidence, or just a feeling in your bones.

The evidence afaics is deaths would be similar to today if nothing was done at all apart from isolating the vulnerable.

Look how swedens getting along.

And the very strong evidence is that fit and healthy people under 50 are at a tiny level of riask of death. Just because one 15yo unfortunately dies from it it doesn't mean they all will. Get a grip.

We will see suicides increasing from 15yo though, as many were already in depression from their fears of global warming killing them by the time they're 20. Add on the hopelessness brought on by the collapse in our society and all under house arrest and there'll be plenty more opting out.

16.5 billion saved from cutting dividends on all the banks.Approx 34 billion extra on the PSBR.That's half accounted for.
