@TomFornelli Would have been a hell of a lot worse if everyone else had imploded like Spieth and allowed him to fall over the winning line. Danny went out and won it on the back nine, richly deserved.
Jimmy Carr just dropped a radical rethink of taxes, education, and national wealth:
- No tax for anyone under 30 → let young people keep every penny they earn and actually start their lives.
- University should be free… but only for STEM fields that grow society (not a luxury item for 50% of kids).
- Over 60? No tax either — stop pretending we can pay endless pensions with fewer young workers.
- Sovereign wealth fund from UK oil, gas, wind farms, and mobile masts — assets that should belong to everyone, not just the Crown.
On AI and the future:
We need flexibility of thought. Old ideologies won’t cut it when everything changes.
Why does everything have to come from taxing workers? Why not undercut Ireland on corporation tax, mine Bitcoin with idle power stations, or treat national resources as shared wealth?
Do you think no-tax zones for the young and old + free STEM education could actually work?
Or is this too radical for a country stuck in old thinking?

Back on the road for five weeks… It was a shorter trip home than expected after the @TGL semi-final win.
Busy few weeks ahead starting with the TGL final tomorrow and Tuesday, Easter holidays with the family and a few big tournaments in April!!
I also wanted to share something really meaningful that happened while I was home. A couple of close friends saw that the original @british_masters trophy was going up for auction and without me knowing bought it for me as a gift…
It means so much, I was actually lost for words. It’s the only professional win my late father was there to see. Truly special 🙏
@BenGrahamUK It's not rocket science to understand. Since Covid19, Commuters are working from home 2-3 days per week, and online shopping is killing town centres.
NCP has gone into administration.
They’ve been running car parks since 1931, and somehow ended up £305m in debt.
Surely the maintenance for a car park is simple: ticket machines, barriers, lights, and occasional cleaning.
How can a business model literally based on people paying to park go bankrupt?
