If the Government has refused to help banks recover the loans being repaid, the Banks should refuse to lend anymore.

Get the Treasury to issue the loans and do all the paperwork. Nothing in life is free so why expect a Listed Bank to do anything for free especially when ministers and BoE Governor take every opportunity to sh1t on the banks and it’s shareholders

sikh
selling at 25would have been a good move. Good chance of buying back at 20. Looking like a bad start to another bad week. Time for Doris and Mattilda to keep their gobs shut and hand it all back to Parliament. They havent got a clue of an overall plan for the country. They are transfixed by Covid and Whitty. They remind me of two drunks trying to navigate a garden full of cloches. What was it in the war ' Careless talk costs jobs'?

Today marks what could be the start of a bummer of a week

Not another lock downBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: SEPTEMBER 21, 2020The Prime Minister is right to say he does not want another national lock down. The Chancellor is right to warn of economic damage were the government to impose one.It appears that the Cabinet is arguing over what is the right balance between encouraging people and businesses back to school and to work, and advice or controls over conduct to seek to limit the spread of the virus.The government needs to ask itself why it wants more of a lock down, and what purpose will be served. The first national lock down had two specified purposes. The first was to save the NHS which was not ready or equipped to handle an upsurge in CV 19 cases. This problem has surely been solved by the addition of many more intensive care beds and the arrival of the Nightingale emergency hospitals, along with billions of pounds of extra funding.The second idea was to squash the sombrero or flatten the hump in the graph of cases. No-one said they could eliminate the virus. The terms of the lockdown implied a subsequent increase in virus cases as it came off, but at a more acceptable rate and below much increased NHS capacity to cope. It also meant spreading out the virus outbreak reduced the time to the arrival of a vaccine if one is going to emerge this winter.Now it appears some are moving closer to the idea that we need to eliminate the virus. That would be great. Unfortunately it seems they think this can only be done by imposing very intrusive controls, doing lasting damage to all businesses that rely on social contacts, and keeping the controls in place for a long time. There does not yet seem to be any country worldwide outside China that has imposed draconian lock downs that has avoided a second coming of the virus after relaxing some of the controls. If one country could do it they would need very tough border controls to stop it coming back in from elsewhere.Yesterday I made some suggestions on how to stop the current spread of the virus leading to more deaths, by stronger safeguarding for those most at risk. I think it unlikely further controls on social contact either for business or within groups of family and friends will be sufficient to end the virus. Test and trace becomes more difficult as we enter the flu and cold season, leaving many more with symptoms. The rate of false results on tests and delays in getting them and finding the results also makes it difficult to guarantee success in stopping the virus by this means.I have not lectured people on how they should live their lives or respond to the virus. I think the government needs to repeat clear advice on how the virus spreads, what the risks are and what actions might reduce the risk, and leave more to individuals to decide how they wish to respond.

FT - Business support loans to be extended.


This area needs to be watched as the potential liability grows.

[dope007] 20/9/2020 22:49

LLOY not mentioned in that top 10 and being 97% UK I wouldn't expect it to be either

[optomistic] 20/9/2020 22:47

Well we have a new Black Horse advert...Will we now have a change in share price trend trend.

[jl5006] 20/9/2020 22:32

And as to death rates

U can screw some of the ppl some of the time but there becomes a point when the credibility of the assertion is a bit like the benefit of steam cleaning - nothing but risible theories - is the garment clean - No idea can see no change!

======== $ Trillions of dollars laundered by Banks ========

Just what they need this week with new lockdowns coming

[cheshire pete] 20/9/2020 22:29

Japan won't rule us though.
Civil Service needed dismantling...full of lefties.
Coal mining in UK on decline accelerated by NUM.
Most in farming community support Brexit. British farming huge success story and highly efficient, try telling the likes of BBC that though.
Cameron tried to negotiate but Merkel didn't take him seriously, no surprise there though.
Worked in Africa and Middle East so don't need lectures about working 'in different countries'.

[jl5006] 20/9/2020 22:27

tricky
A remainer?
Brexit essential.

[buywell3] 20/9/2020 22:24

Actually that was $ Trillions of dollars laundered NOT Millions

"No UK voter was suffering hardship because of the EU."....try telling that to fishermen who lost their livelihoods.

Not about not suffering hardship though, it's more about the prosperity now that we are free.



Hello? Anyone at home? You already had prosperity. None of you Leave voters are that skint or you wouldn't be on ADVFN. I don't think your definition of "free" is real. Free from what exactly? How was the EU effecting you PERSONALLY? Are you telling me that we are truly free to do as we please BECAUSE THAT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE! When mouths need feeding we will have no choice but to capitulate to the powerful in trade deals. That isn't being free I'm afraid. There is no such thing as being free. All nonsense, put into your small-minded thoughts. The Japanese trade deal has more stringent rules over state aid than those from the EU!

Don't give me this nonsense of democracy when your hero Boris prorogues parliament, lies to The Queen, fires people who protest or disagree (because he hasn't got the wherewithal to provide decent rationale to win the argument), dismantles the civil service, allows an unelected nutter to run the country like a dictatorship and willingly looks to break international law. He also runs a GE based on the WA then decides he no longer wants it. Lies on the side of the bus. Vote Leave stating Hard-Brexit is not on the cards in referendum literature. The whole thing has been completely UNDEMOCRATIC. That is why we are staring at a HARD-BREXIT when ONLY A MINORITY SEEK IT. DEMOCRACY DOES NOT EXIST IN THIS COUNTRY. THE SYSTEM HAS FAILED THE PEOPLE.

As far as the fishermen are concerned there are ALWAYS sectors in trouble. As a Thatcher lemming were you equally concerned about the miners losing their jobs and vast swathes of communities - some near you - who faced the abyss? Are you concerned for the farmers who stand to lose subsidies? No, of course you weren't/aren't. Double standards me thinks. You Brexiters have just latched onto fishing rights BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY REAL ISSUE YOU MIGHT HAVE A POINT ABOUT. The reality is David and Co could EASILY have negotiated better terms but their ACE cards were always used to protect The City. In anycase, as you always argue, people can adapt and move on and the fishermen are no different. You expect those effected by Brexit to adapt, the fishermen can too. The Polish seem to seek employment better, in different countries if needs be. But the Englishman, especially the Brexiter, the self-entitled man, expects it ALL ON A PLATE!

HOW COME YOU THINK YOU DESERVE ANY BETTER?

JUST BECAUSE YOU WERE BORN ON ENGLISH TURF?


LOL!

[smartie6] 20/9/2020 22:10

Interesting opening position on Barclays and HSBC tomorrow, do you think it will drag the whole sector down?
How will the US respond given these breaches. Do you think there will be serious implications for HSBC and Barclays?
