As well as the short duration RL bond funds off the top of my high head do they not run an ethical bond fund and a newer sustainable income fund which might be worth a look?

Hi macq I'm sure they do. I've just mentioned the RL fund as I have my eye on it. The one that fits best with my portfolio. The Rathbone's funds doesn't hold Gilts as they consider them to be unethical. According the fund manager they fund the "army". They are very keen on financials, including banks. Even more insurance. It helps people apparently I've never thought of government fund as unethical, certainly banks might have been higher on my list LOL Might explain why I give funds describes as ethical a miss. Real life anecdote. I was once working with the HR Director of a mutinational on a comms strategy. During a speech to his colleagues, at their dealing desks, on the evil of bullying one of them knocked a drink over and soaked his shoes. He was standing on her desk at the time. I've never heard such a tirade of bad language since. She left the firm shortly after....he went on to a senior role at another bank. Well if standing on her desk wasn't an act of bullying...

Standing on her desk sounded menacing enough to me. Maybe the spilled drink wasn't entirely an accident? Let's just say I've had my share of grief over the years...
