After the admission of a shock £188 million cost over-run for the Araguaia Nickel mine in Brazil, it is quite right and proper that CEO Jeremy Martin and CFO Simon Retter have been given the order of the boot by Horizonte Minerals (HZM). I am pretty sure that both will get huge payoffs and will not need to resort to crowdfunding to keep bread on the table. Next up will be the final shafting of shareholders. Yes: their suffering is far from over.

Over the past few years this website has chronicled time and time again the manifest failings of the Police. Folks in this country who are law abiding, pay our taxes and do not hate where we live feel utter despair as the Fuzz let us down again and again and again. Using the metaphor of a lavatory leaking shit floating down the river by my fields, I explained my sense of despair a few weeks ago. That is heightened as I watch TV and see folks who break the laws, spew hate and unhappiness but support radical causes getting a free pass. The one politician who dared to speak up for folks like me and my wife, and – I sense and polls suggest – the vast majority of the population, was Suella Braverman and, for that, she has today been sacked as Home Secretary.

Sharon White was appointed, with no retail experience whatsoever, as chair of John Lewis in 2019 on an annual salary of just shy of a Bernie. A year later, for services to the bien pensant community, when was made a Dame and unveiled a five year plan to get John Lewis to making £400 million of profit by 2025. Since then, it has been loss after loss after loss and today it got worse.

No BBMs do not get too excited. It is not me for I have done nothing wrong. My discussions were about the obscene email one such moron sent me last Friday. After that I discuss IOG (IOG), pointing you to two tweets from morons below and the share price chart. I await apologies for I am never short but am usually right. IOG is very possibly a zero, today’s update is grim. Then it is onto Mirriad Advertising (MIRI), Cloudbreak Discovery (CDL) and its disgraced CEO, Unbound (UBG) , MGC Pharmaceutics (MXC) and Flip Flop’s Kavango Resources (KAV) and why Ben Turney should be sacked in disgrace.

There seems some uncertainty among some investors as to the departure of the loathsome Neill Ricketts from cash strapped Versarien (VRS). Some still think he remains as a consultant or in some other role. Au contraire. He has left the building. And others seem to think he actually resigned. Again no, he was forced out by the board. I have been in contact with advisers on the subject of apologies, meanwhile Ricketts carries on lying.

In this Bearcast I start with the pain I feel right now after a training walk knowing that 99% of Bearcast listeners have NOT donated even a fiver to the rogue bloggers for Woodlarks article. My first big training walk is described (with photos) HERE and you can make that donation HERE. Then it is onto JubileeMetals and 2 reasons why I expect the shares to head to 25p very soon. Finally,you may have noticed Malcolm Stacey’s absence. I explain all. I don’t think I am being unreasonable.

Yesterday there were more revelations about Telit (TCM) which, as I noted, made the position of former FD now CEO Yosi Fait all the more tricky. Now I want to revisit three days in June and three in July - events then make Yosi's position utterly untenable and explain why he must be fired at once. He is guilty of either extreme and sackable levels of incompetence and of lying to shareholders and insider dealing or of just insider dealing. It is one or the other - there is no third way. So there is no way out for Telit, Yosi must be sacked at once.

I have obtained the explosive exchange of emails which saw Fox Davies resign as Nomad to Sefton Resources (SER) in 2012. They vindicate me once again in the libel case I won against this POS but show that CURRENT Sefton director Tom Milne is not a fit and proper person to sit on an AIM board and must be SACKED at once.

Martin Wheatley, the head of the FCA is to leave his job in September after the twat George Osborne refused to extend his contract. Wheatley is being shown the door and the spin is that he is being given the bullet because he was too tough on the banksters and on the financial services industry. George, pal, you are ‘avin a bubble.
The FCA is not fit for purpose
