Rachel Reeves's conceit
Reeves is spouting off in today's Sunday Times. It's very much an I this and an I that piece. One need not take it too seriously since she has been proved a liar. But the shaker for me came a few weeks back when she asserted that she should be respected since her office meant that she had to be respected. She just does not know that respect is earned and not claimed.

Zenith (ZEN) is nowhere near its zenith
I did not realise that today's RNS of a strengthened litigation team for ZEN's arbitration action against the Tunisian government includes a former Belgian prime minister. The shares re up 1.5p at 9.5p offer. That is about NAV even if the arbitration action fails. And the price will go vastly higher if ZEN wins. Still a buy.

Intuitive Investments (IIG)
I paid 194p this morning since the original target price was £10 and a bid has now been received which, theoretically, is worth 250p. It is now 189p offer.

NS and I
The Spectator this weekend floats the idea of privatising NS and I. This seems a good wheeze to me. The current mess is a stark reminder as to why de facto civil servants should have nothing to do with long-established monopolies.

North Sea oil and gas
It seems that the last twenty-four hours has seen a change of mind in Miliband's head. I reckon that there has been such a chorus of contempt for his attitude that Starmer realises that his government is now tarnished. One never knows with these people since common sense is just a pretence with them. Anyway, Jersey Oil and Gas is now a very strong buy. I expect Deltic (DELT) is as well. But, right now, JOG is the business.

Time to buy North Sea oil and gas prospects
I reckon that Reeves's comments yesterday mean that Ed Miliband will have to climb down from his lunatic pose. This makes Jersey Oil and Gas (JOG) a buy at up to 150p and, astonishingly, Deltic (DELT) at 4p.
