I won an exhibition at the Middle Temple but couldn’t afford to pay for Bar finals or pupillage. Serendipitously, the UK was making the transition from imperial to metric and therefore to decimal coinage. So, I got a job in the City through my brother-in-law selling electro-mechanical accounting machines for Burroughs Corporation – prototype comput...
After a couple of lucrative years in the City, I saw an advert for a job at Ford, working with modern accounting methodology, and they took me on. My job involved getting to know all the Ford dealers in the South, persuading them to disclose their sales figures and feeding these into a central database. They could tell if they were doing better or ...
I wasn't a political hack at Oxford. I wasn't an Oxford Union groupie. Looking back, I suppose I was politicised by those mainly Labour years from 1964-1979. The unions had a stranglehold over the country. Tax rates were unbelievably high. And listening to Labour, I remember being made to feel that I was part of the problem when as a single man fro...
By 1996, I could see that a Labour government led by Tony Blair was going to be in power for a long time. Being on the opposition bench earning next to nothing was not for me.
Absolutely not. It would involve a lot of hassle and disruption to people's lives…knocking down a thousand houses and destroying a community, for one. It will cost north of £20 billion and how would this be paid for? The cost could never be recouped from landing fees. It makes much more sense to add a brand-new runway at Stansted for say £5 billion...
I do think some changes to our working pattern are now permanent. But here again we know that for older workers, particularly those who already work solo, the absence of the daily commute is terrific, while we also know that younger people are much keener to get back to the office where they meet their friends, partners even, and can enjoy a drink ...
'Edgy not sleazy". We definitely don't want drugs, minor theft or protection-racketeering on our patch. However, neither do we want to over-sanitise the place and to drain away its individuality. The Soho Summer Festival and Madame Jojos will give you a flavour for the type of vibe that Soho Estates thinks is right for the area, that preserves its ...
Obviously, COVID will impact on the amount of space a company needs and how that space is valued. Flexible workspace will prompt a shift to short-term leases. A good manager of flexible workspace, with a great order book, may still only take leases that last a year. It'll take adjustments on the part of potential investors to get their heads around...
I'm in the process of setting up a think-tank on urbanisation, where my interests in infrastructure, real estate and politics dovetail: a non-political organisation to look at what works in cities around the world, from Mumbai to Paris, and what doesn't. How do we integrate communities? How can we improve getting private finance involved? How do we...
