The Times today reports on what looks to be an appalling cover up by Lloyds Bank (LLOY), a billon quid fraud from 2009 which my old pal the champagne socialist Brian Basham did so much to uncover. Thus really is shocking. Six Lloyds employees were jailed for the fraud back in 2017 at which point Lloyds set up its own enquiry under a retired High Court judge Dame Linda Dobbs

The tweet below was sent by Halifax, part of the Lloyds (LLOY) banking group. Folks who responded that this was all woke nonsense were told by the Halifax twitter account to take their business elsewhere. And they will. “Get woke, go broke.”

I start with one of Darren’s long reads which offers a post Covid plan for the restaurant sector. The author obviously has not got a clue about what being an entrepreneur means and about how business works. But this sort of nonsense is mainstream. In a similar vein I discuss board room greed and stupidity at Lloyds (LLOY) before moving onto how you deal with serial failures & pigs, reference the main troughers at Iconic (ICON). I start with a row with my neighbout who thinks my Woodlarks training threatens her social distancing and will see her dog kidnapped. I despair. I shall be walking past her house 7 times this afternoon. As you consider that treat please donate to rogue bloggers now as we reach 29% of target. Please give HERE
