The sale of hundreds of Lloyds branches hangs in the balance amid concerns it could lead to chaos for customers, according to City sources.

In December Lloyds revealed it had entered into exclusive talks with the Co-op to hive off 632 branches, under strict orders from European bureacrats.

Dubbed Project Verde, it is hoped the disposal of these branches will create a new force on the High Street and weaken the stranglehold of the major High Street lenders.

The big buzz in the media these days is usually about the useless, hopeless bankers & their big bonuses etc ... but when is anybody going to investigate and jump on the wastefulness and incompetence of the dodgy Twankers at the FA ? --- the biggest institutional eejits and moneywasters in the UK in modern times, imo ......

... or maybe they are not such eejits after all ... maybe most of their financial ' dealings ' are nowadays executed through 'Rover' and 'Fido' doggy-accounts in Monaco ... ?

Step forward Harry .... show them FA clowns how to make real money ...

What a joke ....

LoL

He was meeting officials from three parties to try to secure a deal leading to a fresh bailout package.

The main stumbling block in the crunch talks were proposed cuts to supplementary pensions, reports said.

Mr Papademos was said to be going directly to discuss the problem with EU and IMF officials.

They are representing the so-called "troika" of bailout creditors - the European Union, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund - who had earlier agreed the draft proposals with the prime minister.

They are thought to include a 20% minimum wage reduction, pension cuts and the sacking of 15,000 public sector workers - and have prompted further mass protests.

According to George Karatzaferis, leader of the far-right Laos party, a coalition member, the bulk of Wednesday's seven-hour meeting was spent discussing the issue of supplementary pensions, which had reportedly been in line for a 15% cut.

Bought at 24 and 27 p and sold and bought a number of times on small rises . Made £677 so cant complain but patience is not a strength and missed out on rise from 31 to 36 p . If I had waited and held till 35 p or so I would have doubled my profit . Now what to do ? . Wait for a retrace of a few pence if it comes or wait totally until results are announced and see what arises good or bad . Any one else in same boat . As I say patience or lack of it has been my downfall . I had a few horrendous buys in 60 s and 70 s which I need to tough it out and wait for who knows how long . My feeling is to wait until after 24 th and see outcome of results . Any views ?

And so the integrity, truth and honesty of our banking system and our HMG is COMPLETELY rotten,corupt and dishonest to the core.?

And these are the same people who serve the poor and the oppressed that gave their all for God and Country.

Have THEY No moral standing or represent ANY value to our society.?

This is bad. Realy bad.

May they face their own He((.

Overseas Homes, Property News|February 8, 2012 11:31 am Ireland’s cheapest house? Two-bed cottage on the market for £6,200
A two-bed cottage in Co Leitrim, Ireland is to be auctioned next month with a reserve price of just €7,500 (£6,200).


Leitrim property for sale for €7,500
The cottage is located 2km outside the south Leitrim village of Carrigallen and features a reception room, two bedrooms, kitchen, dining room and bathroom. The site is 0.3 of an acre.

The property is one of 100 lots to be auctioned in the next Allsop Space auction on March 1. From a UK perspective there ate some serious bargains to be had.

74 of the 100 are residential, including 41 apartments and 33 houses. Nine of the houses are in Dublin, with one four-bedroom, mid-terrace house close to Connolly Station listed with a reserve of €35,000.

The best-known property up for auction is the Sandhouse Hotel in Rossnowlagh, Co Donegal, which has a guide price of €650,000 – a staggering 89% reduction on the price sought for the hotel when it was for sale in 2008.

There’s also a three-bed house in Dingle for sale for €50,000, and a two-bed house in the middle of Galway City for just €75,000.

It will be interesting to see how high the bidding goes!
