As Keir Starmer dissembles on North Sea Oil, Barryroe says set to go bust thanks to similar “green” economics

The Labour leader is today sitting on the fence as he announces his party’s new policy for the North Sea. When the People’s Party gets into power, it will stop all new drilling, it says, in order to tackle what it terms “the climate emergency” says Sir Keir Starmer as he takes a knee, not this time to BLM but to the followers of the Doom Goblin Greta Thunberg.  Except, that is, that Sir Keir will not stop all drilling

Tom Winnifrith Bonus Bearcast: explaining North Sea oil economics to comrade Malcolm Stacey and the Probiotix nightmare continues

I start with the economics lesson for Red Malcolm, looking at the North Sea, BP and Shell and his Marxist scribblings of yesterday. Then it is onto Probiotix (PBX) and where we stand.

A Letter to Marcus Stuttard and AIM Regulation – suspend Andalas now and stop the bailout placing

Almost out of cash, Andalas Energy (ADL) is gearing up for a bucket shop placing c/o joint bucket shop brokers Novum Securities & Optiva in the usual way: a ramptastic podcast with PR genius Steffi, 2 ramptastic RNS announcements and a ramptastic paid for podcast with Vox.  The trouble is that its claims have now been directly contradicted by its partner in the North Sea Badger field, Atlantic Petroleum (see HERE). If it turns out that Andalas was making unverifiable fantasy claims, as it appears, and raises money at an artificial price on the back of that, this would be a clear case of Securities fraud. In order to stop that the shares must be suspended at once pending a statement.  I have written to the fake Sheriff of AIM, Marcus Stuttard at AIM Regulation as you can see below.

Is Andalas over-egging the Badger pudding? Another pre placing ramp exposed

I do not wish to fall out with my pal Brokerman Dan or with PR Genius Steffi but I think that their enthusiasm for Andalas Energy (ADL) is misplaced because the company is just not being 100% upfront with investors about its new great hope, the Badger prospect in the North Sea.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast Extra: Dear George Osborne dont bail out the North Sea with MY cash - let it go bust

I continue the theme of what capitalism really means from yesterday's bonus bearcast on the news that North Sea oil companies want Chancellor George Osborne to use your hard earned cash to bail them out. I explain why the Chancellor needs to ignore this completely even if it means that the North Sea basically goes bust taking a number of listed companies - I mention XCite (XEL) specifically - with it. Sorry, I don't care if Aberdeen becomes a ghost town. Taxpayers from the profitable part of the economy should NEVER subsidise loss making sectors, be they milk farmers, oil companies or the Yorkshire coal miners that the great and much missed Maggie Thatcher quite rightly put on the dole.
