I was fortunate in my career to work for/with a genuine, very high quality entrepreneur who built a $2 billion company from zero.
He once told me “we don’t fire people who make a mistake but we sure as hell do for making the same mistake twice.”

In my local tonight;
“I love Lee Anderson, he hasn’t paid his BBC licence for 10 years”.
“Suella Braverman is lovely, I really like her”.
“I only watch GB News now, at least they don’t pay Gary Lineker millions”.
These are normal folk I’ve known for decades and all former Tory voters.

This is seriously bad news. Trump’s policies don’t just affect Americans, they affect us all in the long run.
Moderna have announced that they won't run new phase three trials now with massive impacts for new vaccine development- why- its because of RFK Jr and his anti-vaccine campaigns and cancelling mRNA vaccine research which affect the sales the company can then make 🧪🧵 #PublicHealth

This reads like a breathless Reform press release.
Not the slightest reflection that being seen as a dumping ground for failed Tories might not be entirely positive.
Or that it might help Tories detoxify.
Or that Reform is ticking down in all recent polls.
Dismal stuff.

Some of the comments I’m seeing from many Green supporting accounts is really putting me off them as a party. They sound like the Corbyn lot with a different coloured flag.
