Rugby, Oriel College Oxford, the ECB, Giles Clarke is a member of the great and good and boy does he know it. When he joined Ironveld (IRON) fifteen years ago the shares were 13p. They are now 0.036p but it is only frightful little oiks who have lost their money so does Clarke care? I am sure City buddies like Andrew Monk, also of Oriel, will be thinking of Clarke not the impoverished oiks at this time

It’s over a year ago now since the smearing of Richard “nobody likes me and I don’t care” Jennings of Align following his failed attempt to remove Establishment figure Giles Clarke and his lackey Martin Eales at Ironveld (IRON).

These chaps are two pillars of the establishment. Gent has been CEO of Vodafone (VOD) and Chairman of GSK (GSK). Clarke has been running companies including Majestic Wine since he stopped being a CSFB bankster in the early nineties. And he went to Rugby and Oxford so is a true scholar and a gentleman. Okay, Eales is a relative oik.

A spokesman for Ironveld Resources (IRON) denied to me yesterday that sitting on price sensitive information for at least 6 weeks during which time the share price slumped by 30% as some folks “miraculously” knew the bad news, is not doing anything wrong. “The company does not believe that it has done anything wrong”. Neither do 90% of the inmates of Wormwood Scrubs. Whatever you say Giles Clarke and Martin Eales.

Yesterday I discussed how Ironveld Resources (IRON) via its PR man Tim Blythe of BlytheRay ands the awful Mail on Sunday was smearing Richard Jennings but ignoring the real issue which were breaches of AIM Rule 10 and 11. But what is sauce for the goose… I today read to you a string of remarks made by Giles Clarke, Ironveld’s chairman in WhatsApp messages now in my posession. After yesterday’s indignation perhaps Mr Clarke wants to consider his position. Then onto Abingdon Health (ABDX), liquidity drying up and what it can mean, Parsley Box (MEAL) and musicMagpie (MMAG). I also discuss Wishbone Gold (WSBN) urging a note of caution on “nearology.”

Today’s GM at Ironveld (IRON) was a farce with Chairman Giles Clarke (Rugby and Oxford so obviously a scholar and a gentleman so beyond reproach) refusing to take any questions and showing an utter contempt for democracy. There were 4 attendees.

Shareholders in Ironveld (IRON) will, thanks to Richard “nobody likes me and I do not care” Jennings of Align soon have the chance to oust Giles Clarke and Martin Eales. The former (Rugby and Oxford don’t you know and thus a terribly good chap who should not have to deal with plebs like Jennings) has accused the Align boss of being a bully. Yes, a pissed off shareholder who complains must be a bully. Whatever. In the real world, it is Clarke’s own record that needs scrutiny and which is a shocker.

It is quite clear that Ironveld Resources (IRON) is a serially underperforming AIM dog and that its management should be held to account. Since Giles Clarke took the helm its shares have plunged from 4.5p to just 0.35p. But Giles is a top fellow who went to Rugby School, then Oxford and was head of the England and Wales Cricket Board so we are not allowed to say what a crap job he is doing and how he should never be allowed to run an AIM company again. Clarke is a jolly fine fellow and anyone who says otherwise is just a smelly oik. Step forward professional northerner Richard Jennings.

Turner Pope is a new stockbroking firm set up by my pals "The Mitchell Brothers". If you are bored and free TONIGHT there is free booze and drink on offer and a chance to hear Jerry Randell of Venture Life ( solid business IMHO) and Giles Clarke of Kennedy Ventures who apparently thinks I don't like him. He's wrong of course, I don't know him from Adam but he seems to have a few fans.
