Delighted to have been elected as @LdnConservative Deputy Chairman Political!
Nothing like a General Election to start a new role…

We're used to witnessing peak performance from NBA players, musicians, etc, but the top 1% of white collar professionals often operate behind closed doors.
I'd love to see more public examples of this in business/tech. I think that's partially why @TechEmails is so popular.

And today, because of the decisions this Labour government has made, the energy price cap has lowered by £117.

+73

🚨Angela Rayner, the Deputy Prime Minister, has signed off a HUGE 10% tax increase for councils across the country.
You’ve been lied to on an industrial scale by the Labour Party.
