You beat me to it.

Maybe he'll use his 'internet powers' to remove that post like he removed his name from the most hated poll on SN

 

I'm still 13k down (oil and gold) because teh world is doing better . And shale

And I didn't get out quick enough




My BT and Santander are doing better though

 

Yep it's up 20 points on 1999...fab!

 

What poor response, even from you, as you are well aware Labour inherited a strong economy and stuck to Tory spending plans for a while after coming into power. It didn't take long for it all to go wrong though did it.

So are you now saying the FTSE is not "a big indicator of economic confidence and of the economy"?

 

He's vanished

 

Nope, but the economy isn't doing that great as it's only a little better than 1999.... surely that isn't too hard to understand,. Oh and Brown did not single handedly create the global financial crisis despite what Osborne will tell you!

I'm not sure which of you and Kwigot has the most obsessive personality on SN... but you REALLY need to get over the whole poll thing. It's been months now and you are still all butt hurt over it! Sometimes in life you just have to realise that some people are smarter than you... that was one of those occasions. HTH

Shares in a publicly owned institution being offered to the general public at below market prices..... the old Tory vote buying ploy

 

I might take a punt on these! Proceeds will be used to pay down the national debt so it can only be a good thing! It's a win-win!

Publicly owned? I don't really think the gov stake 20.9% can be described as ownership.

 

OK, but which bit are the government selling then? The bit 'we' don't own?

 

So would rather the Gov didn't have £9bn coming into it's coffers then ?

 

Well obviously not the 80% it doesnt, or was that too difficult for you to see.

 

Should start getting an increased divi as well from next year so we'll be even more quids in, happy days.

 

No I thought it was obvious, but you seemed to be struggling with it so I thought I had better clarify it. I always forget how much cleverer I am than most on this site. What is obvious to me is less so to the less gifted such as yourself. Must try harder to cater for that in future.

 

Not if it's actually worth £12bn no!

 

Funny thing is you actually believe it as well.

 

 

 

The city seems to like the election result.Good gains yesterday especially from the energy and banking sectors, portfolio riding high

Hope Cammo keeps to his word on the Lloyd sale, easy money there

 

Good rally on the markets on the election results, FTSE100 broke the 7000 again.

 

Back to less than it was a year ago. To think some on here were predicting 7500 by end of 2014

 

It's just broken the 6000 barrier again... in the wrong direction

Government borrowing still higher than estimated, deficit reduction on hold, £1.5 trillion in debt .. higher than 80% of the GDP. All apparently due to lower than expected income tax .... well there's a surprise, this is what happens if you create a load of low paid jobs to massage your jobless statistics... oh hang on they're going up too!

Osborne's economic miracle!!!!
