Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Following on from this article earlier I explain why David Lenigas truly is the unacceptable face of capitalism. As a diehard capitalist myself I explain why we would all be better off if Jabba The Hutt sods off back to the colonies.

Even if Tom said Lenigas Cuba we all know he meant Lenigas & OIl or LGO

not just his face, the obese body is also unacceptable

Oooohhh, goody! Don’t forget to track the SP (and share consolidations and issues) of Lonrho from the time Dirty Dave took over to the day they flogged it to the unsuspecting Swiss. I have some archive references if you need them.

One of your best Bearcasts ever. 100% spot on. Big Dave is not the only one who destroys wealth. If UK is going to remain a centre for financial services after we vote to leave the EU, we must deal with not only Big Dave but all those like him. No shit CEO / fraudster is too big or too small for the Sherriff of not just AIM to have a go at. I dream of the day when you retire to Greece to grow olives, because the authorities who should be making sure this happens actually do what they are supposed to. But at the moment that is only a pipe dream – keep up the good work

There are people doing worse on a scale 3 , 4 even 6 orders of magnitude greater – with help from complicit politicians .
In only 40 years , they have managed to transfer all the wealth from Mainstreet to Wallstreet and The City and have enslaved an entire generation and their offspring .
8 years on from the GFC and no banks have been broken up . They are still too big to fail . A few sheep have been thrown to the wolves but no big players have been imprisoned .
Glass-Steagall has not been reinstated and the financial deregulation which has happened since the early 1970’s which has lead to the crisis has not been rolled back . It’s B.A.U.
Banks which benefit from deposit guarantee schemes underwritten by the state are being allowed to indulge in proprietary trading on a massive scale and buy and sell synthetic derivatives which have no societal value .
Govt’s still entrust commercial banks to create money out of thin air and they can still lever it up too many times .
I wish I could see a way we could attack the people at the top of the pyramid .
