@StephenSmithWDS I enjoyed most of Michael Sheen’s programme,but it seemed to focus (very strongly) on the “why” but - did I miss it? - where was the “how”? How did his company actually buy and wipe out the debt? 🤔

I’m incredibly sad to hear the news about Paddy Barclay. He was a very kind man, always on hand with a word of encouragement, always very supportive and great company. I was interviewed by him many times and then enjoyed working alongside him in the media. My love and condolences go to his family and friends

Processed food manufacturers rake in billions selling crap laden with sugar, salt and fat and then big pharma cleans up with weight loss drugs. That's what's wrong with capitalism.
