In the results last week from Quindell (QPP) Lord Michael Howard and colleagues wrote down the carrying value of its two largest legacy businesses Himex and Ingenie by c£38 million but there is still almost £90 million of goodwill in the balance sheet for these divisions plus Solutions (non UK), i.e. Canada. Lord Howard you are dreaming. You are 'avin a bubble.

filthy lucre
Aren’t these reviews anonymous Tom? How do you know
that they were not posted maliciously by short sellers, to try to
damage the share price?
After the Trip Advisor reviews re: “Free Speech Pizza” I would have
expected you to be more cautious before taking these reviews
at face value.
