I think the whole country will breathe a sigh of relief with a change of government. There’s already 1 good indicator that things will improve with a change of government in that the markets didn’t soil their pants on the announcement of a GE and the very obvious certainty that there’s a change...

I don’t understand the opposition to a coalition government. The last time we had anything near to resembling a functioning government it was a coalition. Regardless of what you thought about the politics the one thing that they did do was get on with the business of Government without the...

I was reminded recently that Starmer represented 2 green piece activists pro bono in what was apparently known as the longest libel case in British history (some 10 years) against McDonalds. Quite a famous case known as McLibel. Sorry but if you think someone who would do that is anything like...
