A Letter to Stuart Ashman about that death spiral he now admits has been a disaster
At least Stuart Ashman of Skinbiotherapeutics (SBTX) has now admitted that the death spiral taken out with CLG Capital is a very bad financing option as some of us pointed out right from the start, and were told we did not know what we were talking about!. He says that he will not draw down any more on the facility but, after two conversions, there are still £1.47 million of loan notes outstanding.- By Tom Winnifrith, the Sheriff of AIM |

GOTCHA: Ouzo on Cornflakes No 2: Canadian Overseas Petroleum goes bust
How must disgraced Arthur Millholland, who conspired with the morally bankrupt ghouls at Yellow Jersey PR to smear me in an RNS after I first exposed Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) as a crock of merde be feeling today. For he now wakes up to his second major corporate blow up and shareholder wipeout. Leopards do not change their spots. Arthur is a serial destroyer of value. Will he and Yellow Jersey led by Dominic Barretto now apologise you scumbags?. What about Felix Smith who thinks I should be in jail for my coverage of Canadian? Or those shareholders who, egged on by that vile RNS, trolled my poor wife?- By Tom Winnifrith |

GOTCHA: Ouzo on Cornflakes No 1: Bidstack goes bust
How Mike Turner, the cross dressing IT consultant from Northampton, and also the Jew hater who thinks I conspire with Mossad to attack his beloved Bidstack (BIDS), and disgraced CEO Lyin’ James draper must be wailing and gnashing their teeth this morning. But for the Sheriff of AIM it is ouzo on cornflakes time and another big vindication as Bidstack (BIDS), about which I have warned around 340 times right back to April 2019 has gone bust. As the blessed Margaret said, as we sent the Argies packing in South Georgia: “just rejoice at that news. Rejoice.”- By Tom Winnifrith |

Oi Clem Chambers where are the accounts for Online Blockchain?
We still have no idea why London’s worst Nomad, Roland “fatty” Cornish, resigned the account of Online Blockchain (OBC) with immediate effect on December 5 .Fatty acted for Johnny Hon, the New World “flight risk” and money laundering crew and Daniel Stewart when Quindell fraudster Rob Terry was calling the shots. He would act for a company run by Bernie Madoff, Jeffrey Epstein and Satan with Liz Truss doing the budgets, if the retainers covered his gargantuan luncheon expenses. What was so terrible about Clem Chambers’ Online that he had to quit?- By Tom Winnifrith |
