Vorderperson demonstrating a complete lack of understanding of how stock markets work and just where did the price “almost quadruple” in two years? In March 2020, the share price of Infosys Ltd was 585 rupees. In January 2022 it peaked at 1,929 rupees (a 329% rise from 2020). In the two years since it has fallen to 1,525 rupees. On 2nd March 2020, shares on the NYSE traded at $10.13, on 1st April 2022 they peaked at $25.12 and now they are below $17. Senile dementia is clearly an issue for poor old Carol. She will be saying that 25 x 4 is 133 next.

Interestingly, in February 2020, Infosys signed a billion dollar contract with Liberty Global to take over running its Horizon entertainment platform. I do not think that Rishi Sunak or his wife had much to do with that but I can see why it made the share price rise. Curiously, since Infosys signed an extension to their NHS contract in 2023 the share price has not climbed so Mrs Sunak (her father was one of the company’s founders) has seen the value of her less than one per cent shareholding fall. Infosys originally got the NHS contract through the standard public sector tendering process and the contracts it has with the Home Office were signed in 2015 when diddy Rishi was just standing for election in Richmond.

On the subject of who you would vote for, can anyone actually know? I've long argued that politicians make few if any meaningful decisions.

I'd be intrigued to know who it was that asked this of Corbyn, and presumably his replacements.

You understand stock markets now? What happens when you're confronted with percentages?

Because he's a fascist, and anyone with the slightest acquaintance with 20th century history, ought to be concerned about the rise of fascism which we are currently witnessing throughout Europe and America <ok>

The statue whisperer was not listening when the definition of ‘fascism’ was whispered. That is the problem with only listening to far Left statues that have re-written history...

No need to go back years to find dubious Labour candidates.

I have always understood stock markets and I have always understood percentages. If you want some help 1929 divided by 585 multiplied by 100 is 329.74, so perhaps I should have rounded that up to 330. As it was already 585, the rise is actually only 1344, so the percentage rise is actually only 229 per cent – even less quadrupled.

It is becoming increasingly clear that you understand next to nothing, including the English language.

same as Labour and Tory manifestos then. All of them are BS

Have you read the greens and lib dem ones, or the scots and welsh ones come to that? They may as well start 'Dear Santa' as they know they'll never be in a position to have to follow through on their wishes. Farage will get less seats than any of them, and the mainstream are trying, and largely failing to pull it to bits.

Why does someone liable to get so few seats terrify them so much?

He's not very good when he's unscripted and under pressure. The prospect of Farage and Galloway hovering in the background and the likes of Andrew Neil being harder to avoid will be giving him nightmares. :emoticon-0102-bigsm
