Never trust any politician. You will always end up disappointed.

Alexander Boris De Pfeffel Johnson is the least trustworthy of them all

As you don't actually employ anybody you wouldn't understand how competitive it is to find and recruit talented people - offering worse terms than a rival is hardly going to help your recruitment position and the overall competitiveness of your business - take it from someone who employs 300+ people. This is not some free market think tank this is the reality in the trenches - you should try it some time!!

You're ignoring, probably wilfully, the fact that in a bonfire of regulations, the recruits you currently have to fight for, won't have better options; hence why it is often referred to as a race to the bottom.

And before you start rattling on about your business empire - yes, I employ people, in large number.

Of course you do - but it wont be your money at risk or your business!! - there will always be a scramble for talent business is a game played by people simple. Good employers will always compete for the best people its how business grow and prosper its the quality of the human capital that people invest in. The only way this changes is if you nationalise everything and then you will a reduction in quality opportunities.

Wrong; you really should stop this assumption habit - it's bad for your argument.



That literally makes no sense - at all.

Jeez I'd better tell the people in the 2,500 strong payroll I sign off every four weeks!
Fortunately not everyone who does well out of the economy is blind to the reality of the many and, oftentimes, the good fortune of the few.

Wow, you do all that on your own. I prostrate my self in admiration. That micky mouse degree you got worked at well after all.

I think you're confusing me for Sal, who appears to think that everything he got in life was due to his hard work and anyone who didn't have any success has only themselves to blame.

Absolutely not - yes I have worked really hard but I have had my share of luck along the way. There is no reason why the vast majority of the population could achieve what I have. I was born in a back to back house in Bradford with an outside toilet. I went to one of worst comprehensive schools in Bradford and I didn't go to university. There are people in society who are incapable either mentally or physically from working and we need to look after them but they are a very small minority. There are plenty of examples of people from humble backgrounds making good through their own hard work - that should be applauded not roundly condemned.

The worst kind of Tory (and I've never yet met a good type).
How are the Jonese's next door.

It's got nothing at all to do with envy - it's about fairness; the view that everyone can be successful if they work hard, often parroted by people who have never had to work hard because they made money by having money, is a myth, designed to keep people in wage slavery.

It has everything to do with envy - it is true there are hundreds of thousands of examples of people who have started with nothing who have done very well - SME's are lifeblood of our economy they make up 99.9% of all businesses they account for 60% of private sector output and they employ 60% of all private sector workers i.e. c17m. Very few of these businesses will represent money on money.

The idea that we shouldn't have any billionaires is complete madness and contradicts - there is a surprise - what Corbyn has previously said. As everyone knows the top 1% contribute 30% of the income tax take - how much more do you want them to pay?

So you start a business and it is successful and it grows and it continues to grow to a point where you are a billionaire due to the perceived value of the company - no chance they will be liquid billionaires - what do you do stop working stop trying to grow the company further - allow the competition to catch up - where do you stop?

He's right. It's pure envy.
If only I could come back next time as a jerk- off a la Boris, JRM or IDS, imagine how more fulfilled I'd feel?
