Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Anyone a victim of crime, can report that crime to the Police.
I am a tax payer, so along with all tax payers, I am a victim of the fraud carried out by MacShane.
I will give this 7 days to see if the Police take action, as I am sure the press will bring the usual pressure to bare, and then if they don't I will report the crime to the appropriate Police Force.

.

what about MPs swaping homes to claim 20k a year and say say it is legal
for them to swap homes to dop it.
its bloody theft simple as that the police should arrest these crooks

Hi Mnamreh,

Thanks for that, there were so many of the fiddling barstewerds, that I lost track of what happened to who.
Due to the committees comments, I will still wait and see what if anything happens, then will contact the Police to see if they will re-consider.
I doubt they will, but it can't do any harm.

do you know why cameron hestine clegg and a lot more do not want out of the EURO LAND there familys get MILLIONS in land subsideds .
try and get the info on this its hard but I found away

Chuck the info up then please as should be an interesting read. The vast majority of politicians are crooks, and are not even qualified or have relevant experience to hold the offices they do. MP's should be made up of a proportion of professionals who have relevant business experience. My view is the political system doesn't work, we need something else, what exactly I'm not sure. Maybe the government should be subject to audit in the same way companies are so we could understand where all the tax revenue really goes...

SHORTIE that is the best post that has ever been post on this thread .

Tank you remind me of Anders Breivik reading some of your posts.

Greek - I took "He was now considering his position" to mean lower or top bunk?

Lol, and also as long as he considers his position before he picks up the soap.

On a serious note, I have contacted The Telegraph as they were the main instigators of exposing the expenses scandal, to see if they will bring pressure to bear on the CPS.
The CPS do not have an e-mail address, so can only be contacted via telephone or letter, so will wait a while yet before I start trying to press a few buttons.

TANK get a hobby for fks sake, you are Knobhead no. 1 trust me :O)

I have spent many hours in my own little way campaigning for this legislation… I’m sure elephant man is not amused!… anyway….at last!

New trading rules introduced by Britain’s finance regulator could lead to an increasingly bullish mind-set in the City.
The rule changes, which became effective today, promise to put the brakes on rampant short selling by allowing the regulator to publicly disclose short positions, fine firms for short sales that aren’t settled in time and give counterparties the right to force the ‘shorter’ to buy stock back.
It is thought the rules could make short selling - as a purely speculative pursuit - higher risk and less attractive. Shorts covered by stock lending will however not incur the penalties.
Under these new rules, traders will have to disclose where they are short of more than 0.2% of a company’s shares, and if short of more than 0.5% the trader’s position will be made public. 
Making short positions public knowledge could potentially leave the ‘shorter’ vulnerable to rival firms.
This is particularly significant in the small cap market where there are fewer participants. In some cases only a handful of brokers make a market, and institutional dealers can have a big influence.
“I think we’ll see the larger institutions flexing their muscles because they can at last,” said Steve Asfour, head of sales trading at Fox Davies Capital.
“If they can see that X, Y or Z broker has a big short in one of their companies, let’s be honest, it’s not going to be difficult for them to squeeze someone by the short and curlies and make them close their short.
“It often doesn’t take a lot to move these kinds of stocks.”
Asfour says the effect of the rule change can already be seen as some small cap stocks have moved strongly in recent days driven by the covering of short positions before they had to be disclosed.
“We’ve already seen a squeeze in some stocks, as the rules have come in, but I think the real squeeze will come at the back end of next week when trades put on now are either covered or forced to buy back.”
In the longer term however he believes the ruling could have a more lasting impact as it may alter the way market makers and traders approach the market.
“A lot of people have been trading with a bit of a bear hat on, that’s just the way people have had to trade, and they’ll now have to tweak their stance and trade with more of a bullish hat on.
“And to be fair with where some of these small caps are, frankly on their backsides, being bullish in them could be quite profitable.” 
“I think, and this is just my own opinion, that we’ll see quite a sea-change in the way traders approach this market. 
“I don’t think we’re going to see so many people approaching it from the bear point of view, trying to short any stock that’s up on the day.” 
“I think they’ll have to trade smarter now and look for bull stories over the bear stories for a change, which is the complete opposite of how a lot of people have traded in recent years.”

human rights need to be abolished it only protects murderers

typically preposterous baby and bathwater reaction from the village rabid bigot.
while the human rights act as it stands is far too protective of the perpetrators of almost any crime, there certainly needs to be some sort of protection in place
quite how one rejigs such legislature is another matter altogether, let alone how one would get it universally accepted
an analogy is along the lines of one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter

any one who bites the hand that feeds it is not fit to live .
deport any one who cheats our system and if they are british
put there pictures in the streets and stop there benefits and make them go to the soup kitchens .

if action is not taken soon the kitty will run out then you will have a civil war in the uk .
bring on the gold dawn in greece the people say they are the only hope for its people
and in 2 years they will be no illegal immigrants in greece.
they are made with balls not knitting needles
