FFS, you told us that rideshare can't happen because the European courts ruled that Uber cannot do anything it's not currently doing.

Regulating rideshare is taxi driving?

No its not a taxi driver drives a taxi but rideshare might just require that the driver passes some sort of test Vehicle wont matter a fuck .If the Healy Wrays dont own a fleet of taxies then Rideshare will be on their agenda to support the next government as Danny needs to get his drunks back to the Cottage .

You know more about the ISEQ etc than i do but one thing I do know is that anyone believing one word coming out of a T'D's mouth is a fool. Buffett invested in Sainsburys in Britain to offset American tax-dollars against sterling in the event of a meltdown. People forget how important Britain is to the Yanks.  Private car ownership is akin to wife-swapping....it'll be frowned upon very soon by those controlling FIAT money.

Didn't Sainsburys buy Walmart (Asda) on the mainland recently? I recall reading that it will be bigger than Tesco when the deal is complete.

Keeping the Sainsbury name but Walmart bought them via Asda..the MD of Sainsbury was recorded humming "We're in the money" on Sky.  Could have that the wrong way around but Buffett was reported to have been very worried about something....

I thought it odd that Walmart would lose interest in the UK. Shame it never bought Dunnes Stores back when it was reputed to be interested... but then, Dunnes shares tenancy of some shopping centres with direct competitors whereas Walmart (and Tesco) don't facilitate joint anchor tenancies in their high street killer models.

Elon Musk and Buffett have teamed up for some venture too....maybe Buffett and sons are relocating to Mars via SpaceX?

I was watching a documentary on one of the English channels last week about Marks and Sparks. The commentators reckon it's lost it's way, trying to sell knickers to too broad a range of shoppers and such like. It's decline really started years ago when it was too reluctant to end manufacturing partnerships with UK firms and treated it's staff too well by comparison to the ever-increasing number of competitors happily supporting foreign sweatshops.
