Dick and another shareholder, Keith Galter have now filed Letters of Intent saying that they will reject the Reabold Resources (RND) offer for Union Jack Oil (IJO), for it is indeed a piss poor offer as I have noted many times.

Over at Union Jack (UJO) Craig Howie and his spineless associates are still insisting on paying compensation to a previous management team even though they say they breached the Companies Act 2006 and they also breached GDPR Regs in a material way, both matters that constitute gross misconduct. All involved are spineless. Over at Kazera Global (KZG)…

Thanks to the “keyboard warriors” on this website we all know that under David “trougher” Bramhill Union Jack Oil (UJO) hired corporate spooks to spy on and prepare a dossier on some of its own shareholders as well as Fagash, myself and Fagash’s g/f. In gathering that information illegally and retaining it on record without notifying the victims Union Jack has committed a series offence opening itself up to a fine of up to £17.5 million or 4% of annual turnover.

I compare and contrast the way they have behaved since ousting awful managers at Union Jack (UJO) and Kazera Global (KZG) respectively. There is some shocking news on both companies.

On Friday we will get another update on the level of acceptances for Reabold Resources (RBD) doomed bid for Union Jack Oil (UJO). I fully expect almost nobody has accepted the (crap) offer since last Friday when acceptances were just 5.7%. Friday will also see the new board at Union Jack publish a circular explaining why folks should reject the offer. So today Reabold has played a dirty trick

If the Takeover Panel were not such complete bellends it would be demanding that the new Craig Howie led management at Union Jack send a letter to its poor shareholders stating why the new board think that the piss poor offer from Reabold (RBD) is such an awful one. But it seems that there has not even been an RNS. But maybe Union shareholders are not so dumb after all?

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.

At today’s AGM new Union Jack Oil (UJO) head honcho Craig Howie checked with the company secretary and answered my question: “yes we do have cash”. But how much? And is it net cash? Peter “Fagash” Brailey and I have just chatted and here is some Winni-maths.

The David Bramhill gang was humiliated and trougher himself put in a no show. But 2 sets of lawyers left me with profound disquiet. Will Craig Howie grow a pair and stand up to them or is a cover up of past greed and crimes underway?

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

It’s day 21 of the (crap) all paper offer for Union Jack Oil (UJO) from Reabold Resources (RBD) which means that the level of acceptances in must be announced and it is just 0.2% Despite the misleading video, misleading paid for research, misleading letter to shareholders, misleading words from the whore blogger just 0.2% have accepted. What a total fuck you.

According to its website “The Takeover Panel is an independent body whose main functions are to issue and administer the Takeover Code and to supervise and regulate takeovers and other matters to which the Code applies. Its principal purposes are to ensure fair treatment for all shareholders and an orderly framework for takeover bids.” With regard to the (crap) Reabold Resources (RBD) offer for Union Jack Oil (UJO) it is failing to do its job. I have sent it a letter

On Friday, Reabold Resources (RBD) finally, only after pressure from this website, fessed up that shareholders owning 14.09% of Union Jack Oil (UJO) equity had sent in letters of Intent saying they would reject their (crap) all share offer. Since then, matters have got worse.

Reabold Resources (RBD) may be reluctant to follow takeover panel rules without a kick from me so just in case, a Letter of Intent to reject its offer for Union Jack Oil (UJO), speaking for 4.05% of the equity, has arrived at Winnileaks and is reproduced below, with names redacted. It is dated tomorrow ( a business day) but was sent yesterday.

Yesterday Reabold Resources (RBD) tried to terrify Union Jack Oil (UJO) shareholders into accepting its (crap) all paper offer by warning that if it got 75% acceptances it would delist Union shares leaving those rejecting the offer with untradeable paper. Well I have bad news for Reabold, it needs to fess up.

Ut is quite clear that David Bramhill breached the Companies Act 2006 in adjourning the AGM of Union Jack Oil (UJO) to thwart shareholders whom Union Jack now admits wanted to vote him and his gang off the board. This may allow Bramhill to bully his shareholders into accepting a duff offer from Reabold Resources (RBD) as he will control what they are told. I am afraid that I do not expect the FCA or AIM Regulation to address what appears a criminal act and a clear denial of shareholder democracy, but I want it on record that they were alerted and did nothing.

I support Mr. Howie in his attempts to oust the troughers of the David Bramhill gang at Union Jack Oil (UJO) but his advisors are embarrassing themselves being played for fools by Brammers. Today Union Jack accepts that Howie has legitimately called an EGM with his buddy John Americanos to change the board. But…

Howie's advisors have been useless, repeatedly insisting they know better than old TW and allowing Howie to be played by David Bramhill at Union Jack Oil (UJO) as a result. Now I warn him that unless he injuncts Union Jack he could lose by the back door as Bramhill gives a new AGM deadline and admits to the Companies Act breach.

David Bramhill of Union Jack Oil (UJO) seems to be in all sorts of trouble with the Takeover Panel for publishing paid for research during a takeover paid. Union Jack is doing its utmost to remove the "research" from the interweb but it’s too late, it is out there. But there is a bigger question for me.

The situation at Union Jack Oil (UJO) is now just ludicrous. Shareholder cash is being spaffed at a rate of at least £5,000 on a day on a n all paper bid from Reabold (RBD) that cannot succeed. Just do the maths.

To secure a £220,000 ( pre-tax) payoff for himself, Companies Act 2006 breaking, trougher David Bramhill is recommending that shareholders in Union Jack Oil (UJO) accept an all paper offer from a company whose last accounts came with a material uncertainty warning. This is madness on stilts and if there were any independent NEDs at Union Jack ( there is now just one who is a paid poodle, Zac Philips) the bid would have been rejected at once. Reabold needs 75% of those voting to accept.

The position of David Bramhill and the troughers at Union Jack Oil (UJO) is now wholly untenable. On Friday Bramhill acted, as I exposed HERE, ultra vires to adjourn an AGM which was set to boot him and his fellow fat cat incompetents off the board. His pretext was a possible all paper offer from Reabold (RBD) but today Reabold published accounts with a material uncertainty. Not even Bramhill can recommend a paper offer from such a company. It gets worse for Brammers, as I can reveal…

On 26 June at the AGM of Union Jack Oil (UJO) , which I shall be attending waving a proxy paper, the three surviving troughers ( David Bramhill, Joe O’Farrell & Zac Philips) will be voted off the board and new boss Craig Howie will immediately terminate the £120,000 consultancy agreements of poodle Philips and snivelling coward and current NED Graham Bull. In that light the company, which claimed to have cash of c£1.5 million at December 31 2025 has just announced that it has taken out a £1 million loan from Egdon Resources. WTF?

Paperwork is, as I write, being sorted out to make me a proxy for a shareholder in Union Jack Oil (UJO). Pete “Fagash” Brailey has bought 150 shares. And thus both of us will be pitching up at a posh Bristol hotel at 11 AM on June 26 for the AGM. Does David Bramhill really want this?

I am told that Union Jack Oil (UJO) is preparing an RNS attacking Craig Howie and his call to sack the greedy and useless board. We know that Howie will win the AGM vote so the cost of the board fighting him is just money wasted as the troughers try to prolong their troughing. Howie has however got in first with a letter going out today to shareholders. It reads:

Would Union Jack Oil (UJO) have followed QCA guidelines and put the whole board up for reelection at the AGM had Craig Howie who owns 9% of the equity not submitted a resolution to that effect? Perhaps. Perhaps not. I showed on Monday how Union Jack claims to follow QCA Guidance but in fact does not.

Our expose that Union Jack Oil (UJO) had spaffed eighty grand buying a Porsche with personalised number plates for the gimp who sends out its tweets was one of the numerous governance fails this website has shone a light on, one of the numerous reasons why shareholders should sack the board and back Craig Howie at this summer's GM. But..

Craig Howie says that he has been overwhelmed by the response from shareholders in Union Jack Oil (UJO) both institutional and retail to his plans to sack the board. The only question is whether the aging troughers David Bramhill and Joe O’Farrell will put up a fight as we head to a June AGM. Does Bramhill really believe in QCA guidance he has signed up to?

At every level corporate governance at Union Jack Oil (UJO) stinks and that is one reason why costs are utterly out of control and will destroy the company unless Craig Howie manages to sack the board at this summer’s AGM. At the heart of this is 80 year old NED Graham Bull, possibly the highest paid NED on AIM.

I kid you not, Craig Howie is off work right now, working as an extra on a movie shoot ( it is his hobby). Chacun a son gout. On his return we may get a 3rd attempt to sack the incompetent and greedy board of Union Jack Oil (UJO). I think the financials are now so dire that whoever is in charge this ship is doomed. But what about the quality of its assets? A geologist has been in touch and writes…

The dismal Share Talk website hosts London’s worst spivs among them the whore blogger Malcolm Graham Wood who pens “Malcy’s Blog”. Earlier this week Union Jack Oil (UJO) dismissed NEDS Craig Howie and brought in two new NEDS, one of whom, laughably, is already a well paid consultant to Union Jack. If Zac Phillips is independent I am a banana.
