election " what the hell next "

Many years ago, I was probably early thirties and running our business, my mum (a staunch Conservative and a 'party worker') introduced me to our local MP - I was there supporting my mum as my dad had just died. She thought I would like to meet our MP for business reasons.

In a short conversation I told him perhaps more politely than I would today that our business exists despite the Government, not because of it. He walked away.

That's still one of my mantras - you can't rely on any government to make your life sucessful or your business profitable - you just paddle your own canoe - and most of us that do run businesses, no matter how small, are pretty good at that. :001_smile:
