I’ve *NEVER* shared this story in public before. This is a story about LOSS, FAILURE and sheer perseverance. I told this story to a few fellow startup founders last night, and it resonated - so I wanted to share on here.

Odd @FT hit-piece on @matthewclifford. Sounds like it was conceived (poorly) by an opportunistic bitter rival. Disappointed that the FT decided to publish such a biased piece, full of hearsay and desperate straw-clutching in order to weave a specific narrative. Having known Matt for over 10yrs, I'm sure there's 1000's of people who would attest to his character, integrity and patriotism towards the UK. How the hell is this country going to recover from the wreckage of the past 10yrs, if we are tall-poppy-hatchet-job-ing the individuals with the smarts, gumption and work ethic to turn this sinking ship around? Ridiculous. ft.com/content/6a30c6af-5f41…

Spot on.

.@easyJet your staff at Luton airport just sent my check-in baggage through without tagging it. It’s now lost in the airport! Absolutely ridiculous! No-one knows what to do now!!
