"if you close off obvious receptor points" But plug?

[crossing_the_rubicon] 02/4/2020 11:39

Re post 949

Simple solution.
Elderly stay at home in qurantine.
Those with co morbities stay at home in quarantine.

Everyone else goes back to normal, heads to work BUT

1)Mask wearing mandatory for everyone.
2)Googles/Nitrile gloves semi mandatory depending on job.

Problem solved.
Virus needs a host to spread to via airborne droplets.

If you close off the obvious receptor points, virus doesn't spread and dies.

R0 sub 1.

Job done.

Bottom line is this is rudderless in a falling general market. And until the general market bottoms, this will continue to slip southwards. It was a terribly destructive move by the BOE but there we are. If we retest market lows then I would say there is a Minimum 20% downside here. And remember markers almost always overshoot. 20p bottom is entirely plausible.

Britain has traded individual liberty for a terrifying state omnishambles

The public is starting to realise it has been duped into accepting the unacceptable

This isn’t the deal we bargained for when we acquiesced in the shutdown of the economy and mass house arrest: individual sacrifice in return for collective shambles. In a way, the lack of pushback against lockdown has been remarkable. Perhaps our love of liberty has been bludgeoned by human rights culture, our confidence to question punctured by elite snobbery over who is allowed to comment on scientific debate. Still, suspicion is rising that we have been duped into accepting the unacceptable. After allowing crisis to spiral into chaos, No 10 seems too ensnared in strategic confusion, managerial dysfunction – and, intriguingly, a nannying moralism – to engineer even the most blunderous exit route....

Boris and government forced the lockdown on the UK with the promise that they knew what they were doing. The country was told it was essential to the NHS in order for it to cope. Now we all see that the government has not a clue what It's doing and the NHS can barely do it's job because so many of the essential staff are forced to stay at home because they cannot be tested. Taking all that into account the lockdown should be abolished immediately and the country allowed to get back to some state of normality while the government sorts itself out and comes up with a clear and trustworthy plan. All that before defiance sets in and the people take back control of their own volition.

[alphorn] 02/4/2020 10:48

Bob - good post. Like the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party; when they are not taking tea many are posting on here. Logic is not their strong point. Lol

If the businesses are shut there is no hunger for banks to lend...

That’s the funniest thing I’ve read on here in ages.

Just a reminder however unlikely the scenario. The lloydsnshares are 10p shares. If Lloyd's went bust and didn't have sufficient money to pay creditors, the creditors would come after the share holders for that 10p.

That's about £7B for Lloyd's. Along with the other banks if the whole system is collapsing the government could effectively go for the 'rich' share holders.

[aljm] 02/4/2020 10:40

to be fair, thinking about it, in this current climate, if you were a lender, would you want to now ? how do you know the loan would get repaid ? lots of businesses going down daily , people defaulting daily, would you want to start issuing new loans now ?

[pooroldboy55] 02/4/2020 10:36

ch2 Don't believe all you read does anyone check the background of the people claiming this most of it is just a headline , like all the PPI claims like people didn't know they had but signed up for.

[chavitravi2] 02/4/2020 10:29

Just reading now about banks not helping business with the loans the government have under written. They are refusing loans and loans on the cheap scale gov have offered and making some put up homes etc and charging extortionate rates of 20 30 and 40%. Lloyd's would seem to be a main offender on reading. That's a worry. Not only are good businesses going to go under but later they will not forgive Lloyds or other banks for their greed.

Eku - you've just earned your very own place in my filter list!

[alphorn] 02/4/2020 10:18

Ekuuleus - what on earth are you talking about?

A limited liability company is what it says on the tin. Just that.

[smartie6] 02/4/2020 10:14

I would say 40p at the end of next week.

[smurfy2001] 02/4/2020 10:13

I think 20-25p range is a possibility when the recession is confirmed.

[xxxxxy] 02/4/2020 10:05

NHS is at best a Health Service. Not about miracle workers. Death comes.If on immunosuppressant drugs stay clean and in a safe place. But let the rest of us get on with our lives. For children and grand children and the FUTURE. And Save the Economy.

While Europe messes about with weak response to corona, China leads the way!!!



'China has approved the use of bear bile to treat critically ill coronavirus patients.

The National Health Commission has recommended the use of Tan Re Qing - an injection that contains bear bile, goat horn and herbs - to treat patients with Covid-19.

But there is no evidence the mixture has any medicinal value'
