Labour’s flexible working revolution is a dogmatic political fiction where the tail wags the dog
Here’s a question Labour might want to answer: who runs a business — the bloke who started it, risked his house, borrowed the money and pays the wages, or the people he employs? Because sometimes you have to wonder. The Government wants to beef up flexible-working rights, making it harder for bosses to refuse requests […]
Labour’s Best Scam Yet – a Job Creation Scheme Where the Only Job Involved is a Con-Job!
This morning I was called up by The Jeremy Vine Show on Channel 5 to kick the tyres and give an opinion on Andy Burnham’s government’s attempt to get a million 18-24s off benefits and into work. On the face of things getting youngsters known as NEETs (Not in Education, Employment of Training) into jobs […]
WEFIX London is the Fastest Growing Service Co in the UK and the Reason is ‘on the tin’ – We Are Fixing London, One Job at a Time!
And it’s no surprise with sales projected to smash through the £10 million this year, fleet and engineer numbers up 500%, and new apprentices coming onboard every month WEFIX London will soon be the undisputed industry champion. Since one of our founding engineers arrived in his electric van to our first job in Culloden Square […]
Britain’s NEET epidemic needs a cure, not another sticking plaster
The latest figures showing a fall in the number of young people not in education, employment or training have been greeted as good news. Well, forgive me if I don’t crack open the champagne. Yes, the number of so-called NEETs fell from just over one million to 981,000 between April and June. But it was […]
OBEs for Sale – Get Yours for £36k Before it’s Worthless!
Last week we saw just how desperate Labour are to raise a bit of cash – Andy Burnham is shameless to even consider doling out OBEs to pensioners who can afford to hand back three years’ worth of their state pension! In what world would anyone find this an acceptable way to scrape together a […]
If a Company Won’t DBS Check the Stranger It’s Sending Into Your Home, Ask Yourself Why…
There are very few occasions in life when we willingly hand complete strangers the keys to our castle. Yet every day, millions of us do exactly that. We invite plumbers, electricians, builders, heating engineers and other tradespeople into our homes, often leaving them alone with our families, our possessions and everything we have worked a […]
More Than Half the Cabinet Have Never Had a Real Job!
Britain is a country bursting with entrepreneurial talent. Every day, millions of people risk their own money, employ staff, meet payroll, solve problems and compete in some of the toughest markets in the world. Yet the people running our country have, for the most part, never experienced any of it. More than half of Andy […]
Pimlico call the Consultants to Figure out why the Phones have Stopped Ringing!
Lately people have been telling me they are seeing a lot more WEFIX London vans about the place in London than the once common Pimlico chariots. That’s me reporting what I’m being told, and it seems to match up with something else I’m hearing through the plumbers’ grapevine that my old firm has parked up fifty […]
It’s Time the So-Called ‘Patriotic Millionaires’ Put their Money Where their Mouths Are!
A lot has been written lately about the group calling themselves the Patriotic Millionaires, particularly their letter signed by around 120 members urging Andy Burnham to introduce a 2% annual wealth tax on assets over £10 million. The way I see it If they want to hand more of their own money to the Government, […]
Leopards Can’t Change their Spots & No Matter How Hard Andy Burnham Tries to Hide His He’s Still the Leader of an Anti-Business Administration!
Today the UK got a new Prime Minister, so why are a new wave of wealth builders, the ones who stayed, just in case Starmer and Reeves turned out to be the mythical spotless leopards, getting ready to quit the country? It’s simple, they were hoodwinked once and they’re not going to risk being mugged […]
