Simon Lucy<p>The conversation on the Emperor's New Clothes over the new tech billionaires on <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/StartTheWeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StartTheWeek</span></a> is sprightly and sprinkled with the example of Lot.</p><p>I would like to hear how tenuous the wealth of these billionaires actually are. For a good deal of them it's made out of perceived value, leveraged debt and the complexity of paper.</p><p>These are not well founded empires.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BBCRadio4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BBCRadio4</span></a></p>
Simon Lucy<p>Ah the myth that the Conservative party has only recently governed for 13 years from Thatcher onwards. Which misses out the 51-63 Conservative govts which apart from the important interregnum of Atlee had continuity with the Baldwin/Chamberlain prewar administrations.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/StartTheWeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StartTheWeek</span></a></p>
