My Welsh grandparents used to keep my sister and I happy with bottles of pop (from the pop man’s van), walks in nature, putting my grandfather’s white hair in bunches (patiently borne) and generally the incredible warmth of being in the small home (cobwebby outside toilet for many years) of two people who gave us such unconditional love.
How rich we felt in their love.
I hate the John Lewis advert - ugly, materialistic, totally not getting the magic of grandparents.

At what point do we stop focusing on who needs to pay more tax and start asking where all of our tax money is going.

🚨 “STOCK UP ON EMERGENCY SUPPLIES!”
“PREPARE FOR THE NEXT CRISIS!”
“BUY BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!”
Everyone gets worked up.
I ask one simple question.
WHO BENEFITS?
Those selling emergency supplies.
Look what happened after the UK government warnings:
Torch sales up 284%.
Radio sales up 160% at one retailer.
Tinned food sales up 40%.
One emergency supplier reported a 650% sales increase.
Fear drives demand.
Demand drives sales.
Sales drive profits.
Profits contribute to GDP.
GDP generates tax revenue.
You don’t even need an emergency.
Just the fear of one.
Meanwhile, how many people are asking the questions that really matter?
Which think tanks or NGOs helped shape the policy?
Who funds them?
How did their recommendations reach politicians?
And how did those warnings become headlines amplified across the media?
And remember.
The same influencers driving you into fear today will have moved on to the next frightening headline tomorrow.
They benefit from your short-term reactions.
You protect yourself with long-term thinking.
Have a plan.
Prepare on your own terms.
Don’t let every headline dictate your next move.
Tune out the noise.
It’s not that difficult, people.

Starlink became a lifeline for rescuers in England.
A walker fell down a steep bank into a hornet’s nest near Wetheral.
The rescue team had no mobile signal where they were training. Starlink in their control vehicle got the emergency call through.
Rescuers reached the walker, used ropes to lift them up the bank on a stretcher, and carried them to an ambulance.
This is the life-saving power of Starlink. Keeping rescuers connected means people in danger can get the help they urgently need.

How about the robot is looking down while assembling a Swiss watch with one hand and then, without looking up, catches an oblique 100mph baseball with the other hand?
I also like the idea of juggling chainsaws on fire while riding a unicycle.

It's like they actually want everyone to leave. ...The HMRC letter asking rich people to reveal what they own

The number 1 reasons (by a long shot) entrepreneurs build a business is “to achieve financial freedom”.
The financial freedom motivation is 2x more than the second motivation “pursue a passion”.
Why do people buy a lotto ticket?? Because they want the prize! If you remove the prize, people wouldn’t buy a lotto ticket.
When the government removes the prize (as they are doing) then fewer people will start or grow a business in the UK.
As it currently stands …
- They take half the money you make while you’re earning
- even more when you spend it
- even more if you die
- even more if you sell the business
… where’s the prize for the winner???
Let me be clear, if they go ahead with this new tax on entrepreneurs I am on the record encouraging UK entrepreneurs and startups to seriously consider going elsewhere to start, scale, grow and exit.
We live in a global economy and many many countries are trying to win your business. If the UK Government doesn’t value the risk taking and effort required to build a business then let them deal with the consequences.

🚨🌍🇬🇧 Meanwhile in the UK
“We’re saying to People - Be Ready”
“Have 3 Litres of Water per Person per Day - it’s not just about the Weather - There are State backed Actors & Terrorists who wished to do our country harm”
Incredible - UK Defence Secretary Wes Streeting provides a list of items & reasons as to why Britain should be prepared.
You all know it’s already planned & The Government are employed by the people planning it - it’s important you understand this.

You wake up to a nightmare.
- You had £100k in an account but someone took £3500 from you and there’s nothing you can do. It will happen every year.
- someone has taken out £100k of debt in your families name. You’re on the hook for it. So are your kids. Every year the interest is due.
Both of these things are real. The UK has 3.5% inflation and £3T of debt (£100k per family).
