When I sold my old business, which I built up over more than 40 years, the plan was to retire from the business I’d been part of since the late 1960s when I started my apprenticeship. I always intended to stay in business, but a return to plumbing game was not in my plans. But […]
The Chancellor’s Hair-brained Youth Jobs Plan Proves Yet Again that Labour has No Clue about Business!
Almost a million young people are sitting at home not in work, study or training, and the best Rachel Reeves can come up with is a half-arsed scheme that looks like it was scribbled on the back of a fag packet in the back of a cab. Resentment not Productivity Her big idea? Force kids […]
WeFix London – Kicking into High Gear in Under a Year!

Inheritance Tax: An attack on entrepreneurs, family firms and economic growth
Inheritance Tax (IHT) is often described as unpopular. I’d go further: it is the most economically damaging, counterproductive, and morally indefensible levy in the UK tax system. It is, at its heart, a tax on success. It punishes those who have built businesses, created jobs, and generated wealth legally and transparently, simply because they die. […]
My Mate James Whale MBE
It’s a week since we said goodbye to James’ and the world seems a bit of a strange place without him, and that went double of Friday night in the TalkTV studio, James’ studio, a place I instantly realised I’d never been without the Whale calling the shots. Last week there was lots of media […]

Keir’s Chaos: Scandals, Freebies & Fist Fights as Ministers Run Amok! Britain plundered in biggest cash raid since the Vikings Age
RAYNER SETS THE TONE Angela Rayner, stamp duty dodge, forced her to quit. That was the starter pistol on Starmer’s circus. If the Deputy PM can’t keep her own tax affairs straight, what chance has she got running the country!? ROGUES’ GALLERY And the chaos doesn’t begin and end with Rayner’s tax fiddle.

Today the UK bid goodbye to the most anti-business deputy PM in history – what a great result!
Angela Rayner’s belated resignation as Deputy Prime Minister shows this Labour Government is rotten to the core, and that the rot has festered to the very highest levels of its Cabinet. Starmer said his deputy leader has done the right thing in resigning, this from the man who for days refused to admit what the […]
Time to Flush Rayner Out
Deputy PM Angela Rayner’s dodgy residency row stinks worse by the day. From Manchester to Brighton, her story leaks like a burst pipe, and if Keir Starmer won’t wrench her out of Cabinet, the voters surely will. If you ask me, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner’s number’s up. She’s clogged the system, sprung a leak […]
