Spineless interview this morning on GMB @SDoughtyMP - talking in political circles to give non-answers. Poor show of any form of leadership. No wonder the people don't trust their representatives anymore. Contradictions and waffle. Horrible interview.

Welcome new ppl! My recent post got a bunch of new followers so I thought I'd post this next... brandmylaptop.com/ash With a global network of 25k+, LinkedIn at 10k+, 150+ events a year, plus ~360 days of public working, it's not only fun but great ROI too. Get involved!

Me: "Ok cool but I won't be able to prioritise the time for this just FYI" Billion dollar company: "Hey why aren't we getting clicks?" Me: "Because activating marketing campaigns take time & money and you gave me neither"

Imagine asking Zuck "can you just put this on Facebook and I'll pay you if I get some clicks?". Why do we expect the same of small, indie, community orgs that exist to help others [and not manipulate global policies]? Smh...

I'm sorry but investors gave this person how much money? Do they just ignore gut feel in DD now? This is the scariest trailer I've seen and it's a documentary, not a horror movie ๐Ÿ’€ youtu.be/GGJSRFWALTI?si=T5xvโ€ฆ

Startup founders should remember that nobody really knows what theyโ€™re doing at the beginning.

Hey team, flight next week with a ~7 hour layover at Glasgow. It's a self transfer so I'd like to check in early and use the lounge while I wait. How do I do this? I couldn't check in any earlier than 3 hours with Icelandair today so wanted to get ahead of it! @GLA_Airport

England choked so fucking hard after the first goal. Became a voluntary cuck to our own loss. Embarrassing to just sit back like that. Didn't want it.
