don't care for the french drivers

that is the responsibility of the french bureaucRATS


produce from spain can come from santander on ferries

which is much better for the lorry drivers

as they don't have to drive through france

and can sleep on the ferry instead

[netcurtains] 22/12/2020 21:00

spod: French drivers will want to go via france - you being a bit silly - its not france v uk. Why do brexiteers always look at it one against the other.
I hate that way of looking at the world.

In an office those that play that way: 'me against X' are always the worst types ... Dont be one of them

[spob] 22/12/2020 20:43

it's all a bit pointless anyway


as with everything else, it won't be policed properly

and those who are caught exceeding the new quotas, will probably just get a small fine, which they won't pay


as we all know, the current situation at the ports has nothing to do with the virus

the french don't like brexit and they are showing it


boycott all french goods

produce from spain and other goods can be imported via different routes in the long run

just takes a bit of time to sort out


down with france

According to EU sources, the British demand for a 60% reduction in the catch by value in British waters had been reduced to 35%, far closer to the 25% reduction that Frost’s EU counterpart, Michel Barnier, had said he would be prepared to accept.

Fish Deal:

As we saw before panic buying is only beneficial initially.

When the stock is gone it’s gone

Extra demand can’t be met in full

I mean if the public really start panic buying the supermarkets can never meet that demand

Not geared up for it

Didn't really help them much last time certainly in terms of the share price.

[netcurtains] 21/12/2020 08:01

so is panic buying good for Sainsburys Share price or neutral?

[netcurtains] 20/12/2020 10:22

I suppose you could argue that ARGOS is now the only gift and toy shop open in London:
You have to pay online then pick up at Sainsburys.....

Supermarkets urge shoppers not to panic buy after Christmas bubbles collapse

The British Retail Consortium urged people to shop responsibly



Online supermarket delivery slots full

Royal Mail parcels not delivering

Non-essential retail closed

Stay at home means need full cupboards as not travelling to relatives, etc



You can count on London and South East panic buying before Christmas and Brexit IMO

[spob] 19/12/2020 19:34

imagine that, Brent Cross and the other big shopping venues to be shut down for christmas week (apart from MKS and waitrose obviously)

who would have thought

[spob] 19/12/2020 19:31

people will buy more not less

all other shops shut

things ordered by post will come too late now

so argos and in-store general merchandise should do exceptionally well this coming week

[netcurtains] 19/12/2020 18:41

On balance its neutral for Sainsburys.

More people will shop at Sainsburys (no other choice) but they will buy less as
less people coming for christmas.

Effectively lockdown number 3

[spob] 19/12/2020 18:27

COVID 20 is here

London and southeast going into tier 4

drop like a stone when Christmas disaster is revealed

The first problem with Ocado is that it is not very good at actually making money. It last turned a profit in 2016 and is forecast to increase its losses in 2021. If it can’t make money during conditions that are ideally suited to an online retailer, one has to wonder when it will. By contrast, traditional supermarkets such as J Sainsbury and Wm Morrison have still been able to make money this year, despite the extra costs associated with Covid-19. Tesco’s profits have risen.

What’s more, while the crisis has strongly boosted online shopping in the UK, this has only encouraged the large supermarkets to invest money and resources developing their online delivery arms, which benefit from the fact that they can select goods from their extensive network of supermarkets. As a result, despite its surge in sales, Ocado has lost market share in the online delivery sector this year.

If LONDON pubs closed then Sainsburys will sell loads of booze in the next few days....

[netcurtains] 16/12/2020 08:07

I think with BREXIT deal rumour
AND
Christmas confirmed as on
as a double WHAMMY of potential good news for RETAIL
"buy on rumour"
