    You mean like a government getting elected mostly by the young with a mandate to soak the asset rich and invest in the young? ;)

    The blame for hard Brexit lies with the ERG for me. They pushed May out and held Johnson’s feet to the fire on it. Why now they’re an irrelevance we still persist I don’t know.

    It unique cos my place is based in Leicester and has a high Asian employee count, but we’re about to trial a bank holiday swap system where people who don’t celebrate Christmas can have another holiday off instead. Nice and woke but also spreads the staffing around much better from a starting...

    You’re wrong. This predates both. Both have hurt us but it’s out fundamental issues around poor productivity and low growth that have been an issue since the 2008 crash. Lockdown is a red herring. All the data shows even without official lockdown people avoided crowded places during the...

    It’s lumpy though isn’t it? Office working wealthy people are living longer and enjoying extended retirements in good health, others aren’t. I don’t know how you fix it. We’ve got 70 year olds running for the most important and demanding job on the planet, and 80 year olds who seem just as...
