Last year the London Stock Exchange (LSE) managed to deprive me of access to its facistic AGM even though its press office had previously said I could attend. This year they will not stop me as I have just dematerialised my two shares ( the certs are with me) and so will arrive in London in late April will all the documents I need to get in. So what trouble will I cause?

Report them to trading standards, for health and safety issues, to investors money, and chronic indifference.

Right Tom. You are seriously fucked here and me and my gathered cohorts of bulletin board morons are going to go ballistic at the FCA or whatever chocolate teapot needs to be informed in order to get your arse spanked for being a lying bastard.
“Dear Sirs,
I note that on Share Prophets and in particular,

Mr Tom WinniFroth, purveyor of manky Pizzas, alcoholic, drug addict, bestialist and generally obnoxious ugly cunt with bad teeth claims that he has no financial interest in the LSE before stating he has two shares in the company. The man is a Lying Bastard and needs stringing up by his bollocks so the rest of us can get on with ramping shit and sucking money out of the prols.

You won’t be let in.
There’ll be some mix up at the door, some security issue, some problem with paperwork or accreditation & “regrettably Mr Winnifrith, we can not let you in. Terribly sorry.”
What do you want to bet?

You are doing the right thing planning to go to the AGM, I hope you get in and manage to ask questions but I am willing to bet £20 that you are not allowed in and ask questions even with all the right paperwork.

Cant we charge Rolet with impersonating a watch and raping innocent investors ………… yeah lock him up in the Cuban Embassy and force him to make speech’s from the balcony insulting the Chinese party leaders for five years . Four canals , its a fecking outrage what he has done to the reputation of the London market . Feck you , you fecking feck Rolet ………. go back home and feck up your own market.

I imagine they’ll try every trick in the book to bar you, though I fail to see how they could do so legitimately providing you don’t headbutt anyone or threaten to do so or engage in any behaviour of that ilk (however tempting it may be)! I certainly hope you are admitted as it would be most gratifying if you were to really let rip in there given the seriousness and validity of the transgressions in your arsenal.
Would you consider a temporary change of name by deed poll (I think it’s dirt cheap to do this) and a disguise (a longish black wig and a beard should do it – perhaps even a Greenpeace T-shirt) to maximise your chances? I’m being serious, though I don’t know if there’d be enough time now for the certs to be reissued in your new, temporary name and just how much hassle this would be in any event.
T’would be drama of the highest order as you reveal your true identity, and – as there’d be no deception – they’d have no grounds to expel you…

Thanks for the offer TW but, no.
No matter whether you get in or not, get to ask your questions or not, raise hell or not I’m sure nothing will change. There’s too much money to be made for your protest to make any difference, especially with legions of unsophisticated mugs lining up as far back as the eye can see anxious to be bent over.

Dont worry folks ………….. I have been in touch with Universe HQ , Karma department . Balance will be restored ………. they have arranged for Rolet to be reincarnated as a Snail in the next life as punishment . He falls back down the personal improvement ladder several grades and is destined for the next life reproducing with himself as a snail . At the end of that life he is destined to be eaten for lunch by an English Lord “ladies front bottom” holidaying at Cannes . Poetic justice and karma restored . ( the English Lord “ladies front bottom” gets food poisoning for some particularly caddish behavior , complex stuff this Karma forward planning )
