        Quite ridiculous that Royal Mail shares open at 456p. Sale is heading into 'shambles' territory. And Vince Cable is useless. @BBCBreaking

        @MatthewLumby @BBCBreaking - so I had "invested" £750 yesterday, I could sell today and the government would have essentially given me £250?

        @BBCBreaking The privatisation of the Royal Mail is not Thatcherism. Thatcher sold the family silver - Cameron is giving it away.

        @BBCBreaking and some-how this isn't a set up? It couldn't possibly be worth anything if the profits weren't going to a selected few. #awake
