Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
With a hat tip to our own Gary Newman I bring you two screen shots from Union Jack Oil (UJO), the company run by journalist trolling David Bramhill. One was a statement it made after Liz Truss ended the fracking ban. The second is a tweet issued by the troll and his company after Rishi Sunak moved to re-ban fracking. Now can you spot the difference? As a tie break in case that proves too easy, in 100 words might you explain in the comments section below, why such commentary makes Mr Bramhill suitable to run a public lavatory let alone a public company?
Oh dear, oh dear, the much anticipated report from RPS Energy is a damp squib at best, a shocker at worst and one which begs numerous questions for the journalist smeatring troll of a CEO David Bramhill, not least one about a clear funding gap and others about fracking which is sure to enrage the locals up in the East Riding of Yorkshire. With help from the UK's greatest living chain smoker I ask a few questions and leave you to draw your own conclusions. My own conclusion is that Bramhill remains toxic and at 30.25p a £34 million market cap is wholly unjustified for Union Jack Oil (UJO). So the points that scream out from the report:
The twitter feed of Union Jack Oil (UJO), the company that likes to spend shareholder scash trolling and smearing journalists and its own shareholders - really is the most utter bilge. Let's start with the death of the Queen and the tweet below before turning to today's paid for rampfest with Proactive.
Is that Peter Brailey I hear saying "I told you so" as he sneaks off for a celebratoiry fag (again)? Today, Union Jack Oil (UJO) has published a long promised report by Gaffney Cline on the Wressle field. What is in the RNS talks about reserves and a load of other yak. The damning story is in the report itself and is summarised in the two charts below.
Pray for poor Jackie Louise Cope for she is a moron, an obsessive and a fantasist. Her twitter line is full of tweets giving folks, generally utterly spurious, reasons to buy shares in Union Jack Oil & Gas (UJO). I fear that she is obsessive for she seems almost one track minded. Please Jackie go and do something interesting for once. Go get a life! Take up pilates. Learn vegetarian cooking. Go to the boozer. Do something different to break your rather sad routine!
Bulls of Union Jack Oil (UJO), the company that uses shareholder cash to troll its own shareholders, advisers and journalists, have taken some comfort from the latest desktop study of West Newton. I did a desktop study of Cheryl Cole last night and that proves nothing either. It is all hot air. Only drilling proves anything and on that count Union Jack is a serial failure. But there is another matter: the cashburn.
The elephant in the room is that Union Jack’s (UJO) disgraced boss David Bramhill has spent vast amounts of shareholders cash hiring spooks to spy on and troll shareholders, journalists and his own advisers as exposed HERE. That makes Union Jack shares toxic and today’s utterly misleading trading statement will not change that.
I have been sent a new document sent by corporate spooks Fortisat to its client Union Jack Oil (UJO), “Investigation Update Report” 22nd October. It is utterly damning and suggests that the company was aware and sanctioning activity which is a clear breach of the rules set out by the Information Commissioner, not to say utterly creepy. Resignations or sackings must surely result from this expose. In today's article I shall name some of those targetted by Union Jack and is shameless boss David Bramhill.
Just when you thought that the scandal of Union Jack Oil (UJO) blowing £45,000 to produce reports containing creepy personal details, factual errors and no conclusions of import on journalists and its own shareholders could not get any worse, it does.
For the third year, I’m going to belch forth and see if my crystal balls (being an Engineer I don’t put all my eggs in one basket) can spot the oily sector shares which just make me retch when I think about holding them. Most investors are coalescing around the view oil prices will be stable to up chucking, but can we congeal around those sector investment cases that really make you toss your cookies? The 2022 Vomit list – I would rather hold a bucket of puke than these shares.
As Peter disclosed earlier this week he is the journalist on this website that Union Jack Oil (UJO) paid the bastards at Fortisat to compile a dossier on with all sorts of very personal information plus ludicrous assertions. David Bramhill, the now disgraced, boss of Union Jack has admitted that there are around 20 such dossiers. Peter has now written, as you can see in a redacted manner to protect private addresses and phone numbers, to Union Jack demanding that it hand him any of the 20 dossiers which mention him. David Bramhill promises me ...
Tom recently revealed that an AIM company had apparently spent £40,000 investigating the background of a journalist on this site. I understand the revolting dossier included details of the writer, his partner and his Ex and his business. The report was trying to pin the leaking of this companies’ placings on an individual, and doing so in a very nasty way. I have not seen the report. Tom has it and has let me know the highlights. So, Mr David Bramhill, of Union Jack Oil (UJO), step forward and take the honours. You investigated me with your £40,000 Private Investigators. You, Mr Bramhill, are a xxxx — and I make no apologies for that language. You are Scum.
A couple of years ago we exposed how SP Angel had been ramping the arse off Bluejay Mining (JAY) with ludicrous price targets while secretly dumping its entire holding at a fraction of the stated target. In other words it was selling its shares to the same folks who wanted to buy because of its ramping. SP Angel should have lost its license from the FCA then and the regulators should have been pressing charges against the individuals involved. The regulators did nowt and now we come to Union Jack Oil (UJO).
My esteemed colleague Peter Brailey waxes lyrical about an interview that his friend and, in past days mine, David Bramhill of Union Jack Oil (UJO) has given with Proactive. Peter says that it is “One of the best interviews I have watched.” If that is the case he should get out more. To me this paid for interview is an exercise in folly and self-deception and makes Union Jack uninvestable.
David (Dave) Bramhill of Union Jack Oil (UJO) put an interview into the public domain yesterday. While I am not a shareholder currently, I was most impressed. It is worthy of noting any CEO / Exec Chairman who acts with apparent and demonstrable honesty and openness and I wish many more would do so. He did not duck hard questions – far from it. I should say Tom disagrees with me viiolently and explains why HERE.
Union Jack Oil (UJO) states that it “is pleased to announce an update in respect of the West Newton A-1, A-2 and B-1z discovery wells as part of the Extended Well Test programme, accompanied by an updated estimated best estimate in-place oil and gas volumetrics of the Kirkham Abbey reservoir”. The shares have responded more than 6% lower to 18p to sell, so is the news really ‘pleasing’?
