Talk about delusion.

Exactly Scruff and we come back to the point of our departure. Every single political point is dissected and poured over and used as click bait by media to evoke the feeling of loss or gain. As a society whe need to back our governments long and set them clear realistic achievable measurable KPI's, Why do we let politicians formulate BS manifestos and watch them fail. In many respects its society that sets government to fail because it's more convenient to be submissive. Brexit could be a metaphor for change. We just need another Nigel.

Lloyds Banking Group delivers £9bn to social housing sector in just three years.


Bank of Scotland owner Lloyds Banking Group has delivered £9 billion to the UK’s social housing sector in three years.

Since 2018, the bank has provided £9bn of funding to the UK’s social housing sector, outstripping its original £2.25bn funding commitment by £6.75bn over this period due to strong sector demand and the Group’s appetite to support more social housing and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) projects.

The funding has been delivered by the Group’s Lloyds Bank, Bank of Scotland, Scottish Widows and Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets teams.

The funding has aided the creation of more, high-quality homes helping housing associations provide homes for those on the lowest incomes.

In the last three years, transactions have included £350m to Midlands-based Platform Housing Group to support one of the UK’s largest social housing development programmes and a £250m sustainability linked Bond for Aster Group, which owns and manages over 30,000 homes across the south of England.

Lloyds Banking best option among UK banks post Covid-19, says broker.

Barclays has an ‘overweight’ rating on Lloyds, with a new CEO also possibly instigating strategic action to boost returns.


Lloyds Banking Group PLC (LON:LLOY) is still the best value of the UK banks but further progress for the sector overall hinges on post Covid-19 expectations, suggest Barclays.

Analysts at the bank have posed three questions for each of UK banks post-Covid-19 based on interest rate sensitivity; asset quality and earnings recovery.

On these three issues, Lloyds (share price target 46p) comes out best, suggests Barclays.

The questions it poses fo the Lloyds bosses are: Can net interest margins and operating income move up again; will there be any provision write-backs and if so potential capital hand-outs and will its tax rate rise after the Budget given that 15-20% of the business is non-banking.

Seemingly answering its own questions, Barclays has an ‘overweight’ rating on Lloyds, with a new CEO also possibly instigating strategic action to boost returns.

Joe
That the problem. All we really know about Reform is the name of their leader. They are not impressing at the moment. I couldnt pick Rice out in a crowd. That has to be a worry for them

Pierre - there's the Reform party - you may not agree with all their aims but providing the core values align its a great way of 'sticking it to the man'

Osborne was a woke slag for caving in

Tricky
Got to agree with most of that. We are out of Europe but I'm still reserving judgement overall until I see how it goes. Don't like the green pandering of the Doris govt but its looking unavoidable. Also cant abide most of the cabinet cretins though Labour no doubt would be worse. Also worried about their wokery credentials and at the moment thats my greatest concern. The country and its institutions are getting changed beyond all recognition and with hardly any opposition. No point being out of the EU economically if we end up like them politically and socially
My hero of the week is Piers Morgan for telling the woke brigade to get stuffed when they ordered him to apologise. When they all do that we might start seeing a ground change.
Disappointment of the week was Sharon Osborne who took em on and then apologised when they ordered her too. No point talking tough if you are a wet lettuce under the facade

Utrick, I'm afraid Boris and the Tories are well under the bus as far as I'm concerned. He's screwed it. He's let Marxists walk all over him. He's not the strong character I thouht he was. I like his eccentricity and oddball approach, but he's weak.I was considering starmer, by I now think he's too weak too, even though local and dragged himself up from a poor start in life.All revved up and nowhere to go!

Words come from an old protest song. True enough tho.
