Over 16,000 new infections - a big jump. Makes you wonder about July 19, especially given the Buffoon's optimistic comments recently.

Which part of 'future' have I missed? ;)

It is no more relevant to compare the benefits of a future trade agreement with the consequences of leaving the EU than it is to compare them with fighting WW2.Both Brexit and WW2 are done and dusted and no longer relevant.

Threat to small-scale landlords as Lloyds Bank buys and lets flats



It’s been reported that the Lloyds Banking Group is set to buy its first property as it seeks to become a private landlord.

Today’s Daily Mail reports that the bank is close to securing a block in Peterborough, and could start letting them next month.

Under a plan called Project Regeneration, Lloyds - Britain's largest retail bank - will buy and let out a range of new-build and existing properties across the UK. The bank will manage its portfolio through a subsidiary called Citra Living, which was set up this year, according to filings at Companies House.

Lloyds, which also operates the UK's biggest mortgage lender - the Halifax - is reported to be keen to use its low funding costs, brand recognition and knowledge of the housing market to become a major operator in the private landlord market.

It is thought that becoming a landlord could allow Lloyds to sell other products to tenants, such as insurance or loans for deposits.

Lloyds owns the Halifax, Scottish Widows and Bank of Scotland brands and has involvement with wealth management and insurance.

Lloyds has told the Mail: “As we stated in our full-year results in February, we are committed to broadening access to home ownership and exploring opportunities to increase our support to the UK rental sector.”

Lloyds Banking Group has closed another 44 branches as major banks retreat from high streets across the country. UK towns have lost over 529 bank branches since the start of the pandemic last year despite the City watchdog urging lenders to hold back on cuts during the Covid crisis. Lloyds' latest wave of cuts has angered the union Unite, which called the closures a "bitter blow for customers, staff and local communities".Auto updateOn12:22pmComplete list of affected branchesHere's the rundown of Lloyds and Halifax branches that are set to close:The Halifax and Lloyds bank branches closing down1/5BankClosing BranchLloydsBerkeley SquareLloydsBournemouth WestbourneLloydsBrighton Preston CircusLloydsBrixhamLloydsBromboroughLloydsCardiff RumneyLloydsCheltenham Bath RdHalifaxChertseyHalifaxCheshamHalifaxCheshuntSOURCE: LLOYDS?12:04pmBranch closures resumeLloyds, which also announced 56 branch closures in November, said that over a third of the branches earmarked for closure today are situated in or around cities and large towns, with another branch very close by, Lucy Burton writes. The battle to preserve remaining branches was high on MPs' agenda even before the pandemic in the face of concerns that vulnerable customers who do not use online banking were being cut off from their money, but the Covid crisis has accelerated the shift to online banking. Banks did pause branch closures and job cuts during the first lockdown last spring but most had resumed those plans by the end of the summer. Barclays, NatWest, Lloyds, HSBC, Co-op Bank and TSB have all announced cutbacks in the last year. .... Daily Telegraph

Every wines in my body and brain is telling me to buy Lloyds but

And this is a mighty big but it is a share going nowhere

Every time it broaches a big fig the sell orders come in and it is for this reason I am avoiding this and staying long of cash

Only remaining shares in portfolio are Saga with a sell order at 495

And bt.a which I am going to hold until the cows come home

I said in one of my earlier posts I do not understand the way the markets are behaving everyone is calling it bid but to me looks overbought and correction looking across the various indices

Sitting on hands and cash for however long it takes

But it is no fun at moment dull as ditchwater

"You are 5!" - Happy Birthday, Brexit Britain!Facts4EU.Org celebrates the fifth anniversary of the Leave vote?© Facts4EU.Org 2021Five years ago today we voted to free ourselves from the yoke of EU imperialismIt's hard to believe, isn't it? Five long years.Today, Facts4EU.Org celebrates the fifth anniversary of the Leave vote and the first on which - technically – the United Kingdom is no longer a member of the European Union.Cast your mind back to that moment at 4.39am, five years ago, when the shocked Remainer BBC declared that Leave had won. Do you remember that wonderful feeling of Brexit euphoria?In the run-up on the night of 23 June 2016, members of the Brexit Facts4EU.Org team were all glued to TV and computer screens. Like so many readers who had worked and campaigned so hard, we were all very tired... but very hopeful.The joyous moment... (although not for the BBC)After many hours of somewhat inconclusive results, the position was finally becoming clear by around 4am. It was about 40 minutes later when the BBC finally had no option but to call the result for Leave. A visibly-shocked David Dimbleby gave the news to the nation.Relive the moment here:-And if you are prevented from working by the mass hysteria and collective insanity currently infecting our government and media - and you therefore have time to watch the full monty - you can watch all 11 hours of Referendum night coverage here.It hasn't been plain sailing on the good ship Britannia in the last five yearsIn order to appreciate the achievement of the Leave victory it is important to remember that it didn't result in the outcome the British people voted for. The then Remain government of David Cameron and George Osborne started breaking their promises on 24 June 2016. Mr Cameron had pledged to invoke Article 50 "the next day" if the people voted to leave the European Union. Instead he resigned.Instead of informing the EU officially that the United Kingdom was leaving, and focusing on all the preparations necessary, we then had to go through almost two months of a Conservative Party leadership election. This produced the disastrous Remainer government of Theresa May as we all know, triggering the start of years of a rearguard action by the Establishment (and by the EU) in increasingly desperate and undemocratic manoeuvres to overturn the result of the Referendum.The May legacy was the appalling 'Withdrawal Agreement' and 'Political Declaration'. When Mrs May was rejected and replaced by Boris Johnson, years of damage had been done and the EU was delighted. Following the December 2019 general election when a more representative government was elected, some relatively minor changes were negotiated and the deal was signed.No, Prime Minister, you did not 'get Brexit done'Apart from anything else Mr Johnson, you left behind a significant part of the sovereign territory of the United Kingdom. Today Northern Ireland languishes under a large volume of EU law which can be modified by the EU at any time with no say being allowed for the people of Northern Ireland.On top of that we have the EU Commission behaving atrociously to a country that so generously supported its funding for almost 50 years – and which will continue to pay into it until 2064 under the terms of the ridiculous Withdrawal Agreement.Still, today is a day to celebrate the Leave victory five years agoWe will fight on tomorrow, to achieve the true Brexit voted for by the British people. That said, and putting aside all the trials of the last five years, today is a day to celebrate!The 23rd of June, 2016After decades of increasing control by a foreign power,against all the odds,against all the combined ranks of Remainers in the British Establishment,and against all the foreign influence which was used,the British lion was finally able to roar again....And it roared "FREEDOM!"?© Facts4EU.Org 2021We are Brexit Facts4EU.OrgNo surrenderOBSERVATIONSIn late 2015 when we started work on Facts4EU.Org, members of the team were prepared to put their lives on hold for the next nine months. We never imagined that we would have to win one battle - the vote to Leave - and then continue fighting to see that decision realised.Now we are in our sixth year and still it seems we can't return to our normal jobs and normal lives. Not only does Brexit have to be completed, but there are also the battles to be won on freedom of speech, the woke 'cancel' agenda, the return to normal policing and the proper application of the law, and 'climate change'.
