I am speaking tomorrow at Blackthorn Focus event about #Volvere and #turnaround investing. 1.30pm, 1 Cornhill. 2018 Results out at 0700 tomorrow.

Martin Selmayr wants a commitment in Theresa May’s #Article50 extension request not to participate in future budget/sensitive discussions. Is EU worried it could make EU ungovernable if we abuse our veto? A way to get a better exit deal? We would never play unfair, would we ;-)

Our main subsidiary #ShireFoods will feature on #SupermarketSecrets tomorrow at 8pm on BBC1. The secrets of pie-making! bbc.in/2IQTWIe

#Volvere plc 2018 Final Results out this morning. Slightly better than March update. Net assets per share at all-time high of £12.50. Group net assets at record £40.4m and £34.1m of cash. What is not to like?

Just sold one of our subsidiaries, Sira Defence and Security, for £3m - £2.55m net to Volvere. It was over 500x purchase price. Not a huge sum, but a nice return. #Turnaround investing

UK PM Johnson Conservative take a whopping 15 point lead in latest UK opinion poll ...

Don't miss Shire Foods making Iceland Foods ❄️ vegan sausage rolls on TV: bit.ly/2U72ctq (Episode 3). Next week Xmas pies. Sundays at 8pm on Channel 5.

#Volvere's trading statement out this morning. I wish we were announcing in happier times. Frozen pies are selling like hot cakes, but frozen cakes perhaps not yet like frozen pies. Keep well everyone. bit.ly/2RkRMUv.

A big rise in stocks since 21 April, but I think some sector valuations are now too optimistic. We are seeing a rise in investment proposals but the problem is knowing when demand will return. Do you fancy a beer wearing a mask, 2m apart? No vaccine, no good outcome.

Volvere #VLE interims out this morning. Pies outperformed desserts again. No surprises except perhaps #NaughtyVegan launches! tinyurl.com/y6pwbuww . Comfort food for Brexit and Covid-19 stress. Keep well!

#NaughtyVegan in the freezer cabinet at #Morrisons. First review here: youtu.be/pZy16VG1BXg

A great #NaughyVegan review from #ThoseVeganGuys youtube.com/watch?v=YFU2tS…

Delighted to announce Volvere #VLE raised £10m today in an over-subscribed placing from existing and new shareholders. Onwards and upwards!

Another lockdown and a no-deal Brexit are going to inflict real pain on businesses and individuals alike. One of these is avoidable. #DotheDeal

Volvere trading statement out this morning. Good performance in food manufacturing but financial distress not as wide as we expected in wider economy. The effect of government support schemes? #Volvere #VLE

Congratulations to the new Health Secretary Sajid Javid. Can I have my 50p now please?
