#fbpe. 30 years running a small UK biz. Escaped to Europe recently. Rejoin SM, CU and EU for a healthy future for our children and grandchildren. Truth matters. If you are unnecessarily rude about #FBPE I will just block.

Who knows it might be YOUR children or grandchildren who one day find themselves at the mercy of the generosity or otherwise of another country to give them help. Our guiding principle should be to treat others as we would want our own to be treated.

It’s amazing how quickly the global narrative has shifted; renewables now outcompete fossil fuels on cost, growth and jobs.
If governments get the policy right, the green transition could reduce inequality rather than repeat the mistakes of the fossil fuel era.

Weak, weak, weak. Looking back on electoral failure with the knowledge that you did what was fiscally right & necessary is very different from looking back with the knowledge that you bottled it.
Thanks to months of pitch rolling, the Labour government has now effectively told anyone paying attention that income tax rises are necessary, but they’re not going to do them because they’re politically weak. Let’s see how that plays!

Well, fine, let’s get rid of the BBC… but what, if anything, then replaces it? Murdoch? The same siren voices said ‘let’s get the EU out of our lives’ and now want nothing to do with international organisations and law. Easy to deploy the wrecking ball. So much harder to rebuild.

3. Kids put tuppence in slot machines in the hope of getting rich.
4. Farage probably has a gambling industry donor.
