Go where you’re appreciated: Why young Brits should look to Dubai for a better life
The simple maxim “go where you’re appreciated” has been echoing in my mind ever since Labour swept to victory in the 2024 general election. We’ve had Labour governments before, of course, but when Tony Blair entered Downing Street in 1997, I didn’t feel the same sinking sense of worry that so many feel today. And […]
Stop Household Calamities From Wrecking Your Christmas
A Straight-Talking Guide to Keeping Festive Chaos Out of Your Home Christmas: the tree’s up, the prosecco’s chilled, and you’ve invited half the family over. But while you’re dreaming of a silent night, your home might be gearing up for a full-blown festive calamity. I’ve seen more Christmases ruined by blocked pipes, boiler blowouts and […]
Reeves’ Budget Bomb and the OBR leak that shows how broken the system really Is
You couldn’t make it up. We didn’t just get a disastrous Budget; we got it leaked early. And it was more a case of ‘spoil your day’ than ‘spoiler alert’. The OBR documents, the ones that move financial markets and affect every mortgage and pension in the country, were released by mistake hours before the […]
Well Done Rachel – you’ve put the boot into business, robber workers, destabilised house market, crashed the Footsie & sent borrowing rates rocketing!
Before the Chancellor even got he her feet the ‘leaked’ OBR report stitch-up was in play! Every worker is supposed to be £1,800 better off, what a load of complete bollocks, after her last £40 billion raid on jobs and business via employers’ NI contributions. By the time Labour’s so-called investment in infrastructure gets through […]
UK 2025: This is what you get when you let student politicians with no business experience run an economy!
UK 2025: This is what you get when you let student politicians with no business experience run an economy! If there’s one thing the business world should be sending up red flares about, it’s what we’re watching under the Labour government. Make no mistake, this isn’t a slip up, it’s a full blown, front row, slow […]
Businesses are keeping the UK Afloat – it’s Time Labour Wised-Up to this Truth!
Businesses like WEFIX London are fighting to stay afloat every day. Checking boilers, fixing leaks, hiring apprentices, paying bills, getting stuck in 24/7 when no one else will. We’re the backbone of this country’s economy. But you’d scarcely know it from the way we’ve been treated by Keir Starmer’s anti-business government. This week’s terrible job […]
So that’s Page 21 of the Labour Election Manifesto Ripped up and Set on Fire!
This morning’s chilling announcement by the Chancellor has put the entire population of the UK workers, pensioners, wealth generators and entrepreneurs on notice that she is coming for their cash. People are already struggling and what we don’t need is Rachel Reeves’ inept socialist vision to clamp down on an economy that is practically flatlining. […]
4-Day Week? 4-Day Fantasy!
I’ll say it straight: young entrepreneurs can’t afford to work four days a week—so why on earth would anyone else think they can? When I started out, I was up before sunrise, home after dark, seven days a week if needed. That’s what it takes to build something from nothing. But now, we’ve got this […]
The Cowboys Are Back in Town – And Labour’s Letting Them Ride Free
For more than 50 years, I’ve been banging the drum for professionalism in the plumbing and building trades. I’ve fought tooth and nail to drag this industry out of the backstreets and into the modern world, where tradesmen are trained, qualified, accountable, and proud of their craft. But I’ll tell you what, the cowboys are […]
Employment Rights Bill: A Kick in the Teeth for British Business
Well, I’ll be straight with you, this new Employment Rights Bill is a catastrophe in the waiting. And it’s a crying shame it didn’t fall with its biggest cheerleader, Angela Rayner. This bill is exactly the sort of anti-business nonsense that shows once again that Labour doesn’t get how business actually works. Bosses Vilified Even […]
