Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
In this podcast I look at Roger Lawson of ShareSoc and his latest ludicrous statements on Globo (GBO). Does he not realise it is game over. Bust. A fraud. A dead parrot.,Yet he still snipes athe bears and makes suggestions for the way forward. Then it is over to ISDX and its supporters - the young and naive - flip flop Turney and those with other motives, David Lenigas. I write in light of the humiliating failure of the Lenigas Cuba fundraise - see HERE

I am absolutely appalled at the attitude of Roger Lawson to members and non members of Sharesoc. He used the @sharesocUK twitter name to promote his own self interests in GBO and I did not find the ‘sharesoc’ news letter proceeding the events where it was meant to be a ‘half apology’ acceptable.
Roger should have apologised for his blatant arrogant ramping mistakes in not only GBO but other IT stocks too in which he got badly wrong and yet used Sharesoc to promote
I was so disgusted by Rogers attitude and the way he has ridiculed not only bears but many other private investors that I felt the need to resign from Sharesoc. I sent in an email to make my complaint on the suggestion that other directors would look into it.
My email was directed straight to Roger and of course since I think he is not worthy of being part of Sharesoc directors he was happy to remove my membership forthwith!
I have met many of the Sharesoc directors and they are extremely focused on securing new rights to protect the private investor. The ‘other’ directors are very approachable and have much respect for them. The fact my complaint was directed at one of the directors should have been discussed rather than Lawson deciding himself that my resignation is certainly worth accepting.
Roger has been rude in twitter and on other forums. He is not a man I see acceptable to promote the best interests of Sharesoc in any way at all.
The problem for Sharesoc that I am told is that Roger does most of the administrative work and for free. That is very admirable but should not give Roger a free platform to be arrogant, rude and to promote his self interests through the Sharesoc organisation.
Why does Sharesoc now want to help the directors of Globo? is it because Roger had interests in Globo too? (Although he sold his shares without warning anyone despite ramping them up via Sharesoc?)
I have been a member of Sharesoc, and I have donated further to Sharesoc campaigns. But I am scathing at the way Roger has acted to his critics and he should stand aside. I was told Roger is a ‘good man’ but his public attitude has certainly been anything but..
That said… I did promise one Sharesoc director that I wouldn’t put Sharesoc in a negative light. I will continue to donate to the causes that I believe are worth supporting. But supporting Roger’s personal campaign on the GLOBO question is a waste of Sharesoc funds.
If Sharesoc had done it’s job it would have used the funds available to it to investigate the ‘possible fraud’ before last week and not in hindsight
