At least not yet! <br /><br />I remember Richard Branson being interviewed a couple of years ago. The interviewer pointed out that he (Branson) could phone the Prime Minister at almost any time and get a reply. Branson agreed with this and put it down to his position and Virgin.<br /><br />Emma Harrison is in a similar position. Whilst she is a bad role model for any budding entrepreneur (unless making money at any cost is the overiding factor), she can always come back to the point that A4e helps those out of work. This will always get her a willing audience. And of course, the unemployed are an easy target. Compare this to my efforts of tring to get on radio phone ins about unemployment. On one the couple of occasions I did get on the air, I sploke to former employment minister, Tony McNulty. When I told McNulty of my New Deal experiences, he totally dismissed it all. If I were a well known multi-millionare businessman, I'm sure he would not have been quite do dismissive.imattnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941116624675227992.post-21505750585320229232009-10-01T15:48:09.874-07:002009-10-01T15:48:09.874-07:00I can't believe mainstream media journalists r...I can't believe mainstream media journalists really believe the stuff that Emma spouts about her vision in light of the contradictions exposed in the Benefit Busters series on Ch4.Jeremynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941116624675227992.post-85527456935211172462009-09-30T18:06:48.204-07:002009-09-30T18:06:48.204-07:00I've rejected a couple of comments on this pos...I've rejected a couple of comments on this post because, while I might agree with them, they go beyond what I'm prepared to publish.
