Can't agree more exile I worked for this shower for years , a colleague of mine had a accident existing a vehicle and they accused him of doing it on purpose, far too much time spent emailing and box ticking by incompatent managers and so called directors that couldn't direct traffic All in my opinion of course.

[jadeticl3] 03/6/2015 13:01

Sounds like you are close enough to to do something about it exile! Or have you resigned because of it?

Otherwise this share is moving strongly in the right direction, for which I am thankful.

If you saw the way this outfit performed on site you would short the life out of it. Go to any MS site and you will see site staff walking around with normal personal protection gear and on top of this gloves and safety goggles. They insist that tradesmen wear the same kit. You just can not work efficiently wearing the gloves and glasses. The goggles steam up and the gloves slow down intricate tasks. This idea looked great on paper but it is costing a fortune. Site staff are wasting time telling operatives to put their glasses on and many are refusing, obliging them to leave site.

Very mild reaction here. It may not be a cash charge but presumably it is £35 MGNS had budgeted to receive and will now not be getting. All IMHO.

Bit of a shocker in the final paragraph of today's trading update.

The finances of the troubled infrastructure company Balfour Beatty will take another battering on Thursday when it reveals the outcome of an independent probe into its UK construction arm.

Sky News can reveal the firm is expected to announce a huge new loss on the division totalling tens of millions of pounds and potentially more than £100m.

Insiders said that an emergency board meeting had got under way on Wednesday afternoon to discuss the conclusions of the investigation, which has been overseen by KPMG, the accountancy firm.

Balfour Beatty directors, led by the departing chairman Steve Marshall and new chief executive Leo Quinn, were understood to be continuing their discussions into the evening.

A source said the company would publish a summary of KPMG's report along with its response.

The construction group, which is among Britain's biggest, signalled in September that an independent review would examine "focus on commercial controls, on 'cost to complete' and contract value forecasting and reporting at project level".

It was unclear whether the new provisions to be unveiled on Thursday would constitute a formal profit warning for the current financial year, but sources said it was unlikely to announce a decision on its dividend intentions for this year.

Construction growth rates continue to soften as election approaches

January 5, 2015/in BLOG, House Builders & Developers /by Simon Broadbent
Construction output continued to grow in the final month of 2014 but at its most modest rate for 17 months. The approach of the coming general election in May was cited by some respondents as impacting on business confidence.

The seasonally adjusted Markit/CIPS UK Construction Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) registered a score of 57.6 in December 2014. Anything above 50 represents growth, but the construction PMI was in the 60s for most of 2014. It was 64.2 in September before the growth rate began to slow. In November 2014 it was 59.4.

There still seem to be some good contracts won. I think that despite the profits warning, there is growth for 2015. I see this returning to 750 within the next few weeks.

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL.

[dlku] 17/12/2014 10:28

Profit warnings in 3s and all that esp if review of WIP is undertaken

profit warning could come any day and you would instantly lose 20-30% of your money

[cockneyrebel] 16/12/2014 10:18

Liberum reiterate 'Buy' today.

A lovely fat double bottom on the chart?
