OPTI

GOTCHA: Optibiotix was forced to restate its accounts by the FRC thanks to the Sheriff of AIM

What folks like Laura “the cover up” Zelenko and crazy Meg Short at Bloomberg will never understand is that I am one of the good guys holding Companies to account. If I hang up my boots to become a goat farmer or when the grim reaper comes to pay a call, more folks will get away with financial crime or dodgy accounting because nobody else seems to raise issues with the regulators and force corrective action. Today I have received the letter below from the Financial Reporting Council regarding Optibiotix (OPTI).

GNIP

GenIP results are terrible, cash crisis imminent and so many red flags including an AIM shamed Tory Lord - target 0p

GenIP (GNIP) listed on the AIM Casino in October 2024 at 39p thanks to a fund raise from the scumbags at Novum ( now part of AlbR).  After half calendar year results out thus morning the shares are just 2.85p. Right from the get go, myself and Liverpool’s greatest numbers man since Ken Dodd, Mr. Evil Banksta, have repeatedly warned this would be a disaster as you can see HERE. This has 0p written all over it and here’s why.

UJO

He "detests" Tom Winnifrith – what is it with David Bramhill and lawyers?

I  am told by a man who was at the EGM/AGM that Union Jack’s (UJO) lawyer at Keystone Law “detests you.” Given Keystone’s role in this sordid matter and my role in ousting and exposing David Bramhill I take that as a compliment. I do not detest the Keystone scumbag, but I despise him for what Craig Howie will be starting to discover today is just how much shareholder money Bramhill spent over the years on lawyers and others to harass, bully and menace shareholders and myself as a journalist.

APTA

Aptamer & Turner Pope: tell me this does not stink?

The big scandal at biotech dog Aptamer (APTA) is how management have been handed options giving them, potentially, 25% of the equity at just 0.1p in a structure agreed when it was doing a placing at 0.6p c/o the scholars and gentlemen at Turner Pope. I outlined why this is grotesque and smells worse that Neill Ricketts' collection of used Gloucester Rugby Club jockstraps HERE. But there is worse.

UJO

Union Jack: A Stern Letter to Craig Howie

David “trougher” Bramhill and his cronies at Union Jack Oil (UJO) may think that I am a loyal supporter of Craig Howie, the man trying to oust them. Au contraire. Of course, I want Howie to win at the AGM and EGM on Monday where I shall be in attendance to hold Bramhill to account. However

APTA

This is why AIM sucks: we are not all in it together at Aptamer

Of course certain batshit crazy reporters at news organisations that cover up their role in a criminal enterprise to harass an investigative journalist exposing fraud think that AIM’s problems are caused by … the investigative journalist. But Aptamer (APTA) has news today which screams at investors to abandon the Casino. By way of background, shares in this “ developer of next-generation synthetic Optimer binders” , whatever that means, are at 0.4p down 62.27% YTD and 99.69% over 5 years since an IPO valuing this crock at £80.7 million. So, shareholders have been raped. On the other hand…

RBD

BREAKING: Reabold writes to Union Jack shareholders as deal faces collapse: I reveal what it is hiding & a blatant lie

Shareholders in Union Jack Oil (UJO) have received begging letters from Reabold Resources (RBD) offering them a chance to chat to the clowns running Reabold and making the case for its crap all paper offer. But it is NOT telling folks the bad news. The letters are grossly misleading. In fact they contain an outright lie. Have advisors and AIM regulation really approved this deception?

That lifeboat has been knifed Tom. TL, you are in Arry's pocket yet again, when will you learn? Time for full time gardening maybe, let Steve and Lucian loose? Leave out the cabin man, he not so good at predicting, always after the event. Tell me, what is the state of KEFI finance? You are an insider so why not revealed as such? Banks are holding off are they not? Arry did comment or did you miss it? 0.3p a reasonable prediction. Ethiopia enjoying the hot season and the 7, danger!

Jonathon there is no poverty today in the uk, I am always surprised to read your posts when you are obviously well off but you think you know what poverty is, I know from experience what poverty is having experienced it in the 1960s, I blamed myself and did something about it and that is always possible in the UK. I have been to African countries and Bangladesh and seen real poverty but in these countries whats keeping people in poverty is the corruption of the criminal leaders of these countries who keep the poverty stricken down in their place and our socialist government who are hell bent on sending them aid most of which ends up in the pockets of politicians.

The Home Secretary is a compassionate socialist whereas you are a heartless libertarian who thinks that the poor are to blame for their poverty. As for immigration, immigrants almost always benefit the host country as we will too. It is far from madness. It is just up to us to train the new people, which we will.

As techies would say, it’s a classic case of bikeshedding…Who cares that some plonker posted clearly AI-slop verbiage on a couple of unmoderated forums? Clearly this is nothing like the case cited involving the physical forgery of documents, and no, a few AI paragraphs are not responsible for moving the share price - the numerous news reports of escalating conflict along with the involvement of Eritrea and Sudan is causing that.

Unbelievable that someone who was a ceo of a listed company and should therefore be a credible and respectable person can act in such an unbelievable and disgusting manner. There are just no words to describe him. I hope you keep the pressure on the police and his supposed lawyers to act appropriately

What is the cash position? Arry himself declared no further drawdown, probably forced by the banks.Little bits and pieces, a £100k loan here and there plus others being paid in shares, surely dilutive apart fromthe failure to report jungle vibes wrt deaths and damageto TK. Moving swiftly onto SA, it is wearing thin. Do try tocease ramping, deaf ears to many, including subscribers.0.3p fund raise on the horizon, Jan?BTW: Appreciate if you send my regards to Lucien, TSLA day trade short (early morning) a must.
