    I see the big hype about short sellers by the Archbishop of York, perhaps he would like to comment on the billions of pounds of tax payers money that has been used..

    Is this because the Church of England allegedly has millions riding on the Stock Market?

    On the same day another member of the clergy was found guilty of being a paedophile. Perhaps an attempt to deflect the news away from that.

    That's a bit disingenuous, dunston. The archbish was writing in yesterday morning's paper, the vicar was only convicted yesterday. I think a connection is rather unlikely.

    Notice how the persistent deramping has stopped on here now that shorting is banned.

    I hope you have all reported said posters to the FSA ;-)

    Yant1 has some nerve showing up on this thread. Only a few weeks ago he said hbos shareholders would get £6 or £7 when someone took them over. Some investment guru you turned out to be you mug

    You failed in your mission to cause a run on the bank.

    You have been reported to the FSA.

    Who is to say the stock wont be worth 600p when normal market conditions resume.

    Time will prove you to be every bit an idiot as you are. You said the shares were worthless you are proven wrong now that the banks are merging. You have demonstrated your idiocy.
