bad news like this will get this to 2 quicker

corruption? ....... oh, you mean like BAE and a stack of other international businesses? ....... how do you think Iraq got arms or Libya its various supplies when it too was banned from international trade? ..... South Africa too, in the days of apartheid ...... answer to all = very easily for there are always gaping loopholes to be exploited

whats that to do with barclays financial mess, corruption and links supporting mugabe?

corruption, as you choose to call it ..... or do you have a strange interpretation of same to suit your rant?

i saw a whistleblowers programme on bbc about 2 or 3 years ago on barclays and the various stories of corruption from within. it aint a rant as i couldnt care about barclays even it went bankrupt.....although that would mean massive bailout again by gov using our money

so your point is?
haven't bothered to follow story about barclays allowing mugabe's henchmen a bank account or whatever, though it brings a wry smile knowing the probs i have in setting up a perfectly straightforward a/c in BVI
however, the song and dance about BAE, which i guess is much more straightforward in so-called corruption terms, is farcical.
to my mind, that is just US sour grapes for missing out.
there is no question that if you want to do serious biz in M/E or F/E or a wide spectrum of other countries (sometimes even UK) the "extra" commission is mandatory.
you don't want to pay or it offends your moral sensibilities?
fine, but don't expect to close the deal.
personally, i find it totally acceptable .... but then of course, in your jaundiced and bigotted eyes, i am just a scum emigree with no morals whatsoever

This seems to be getting a bit vicious lads!
It will soon be handbags at 20 paces!

Think Ive overpriced at 2.25

only cynic has a handbag!

sorry taby u may be right......i'll buy when it hits 2 quid

Starting to form a slide now.

Bought a few more this morning.

Open offer now available for existing holders at a rate of 3 for every 14 held at a price of 282p. Not exactly bargain of the week, imo. Anyone know if there are any conditions atttached? (I recently had some Cattles rights issue which were not entitled to the next divi!)

I think it is not a good (open) offer...it could easily go lower than that.

u r too kind hyleo........and wait till shorters get their hands on it......if it was 1.82 it would make a bit more sense

Gravity is still acting on BARC, now 275p

by end of month, will be nearer 2 quid......another crap share thaT cynic just bought and is falling lots

Bought afew more@292p wil be going north soon:)

You hope! :o)

aye, yhey r opening a branch in shetland islands....cant get much more north than that

How about a twig in Reykjavik?
