So long – it’s been great putting the case for Bradford

8:26am Wednesday 8th December 2010

Well, as the saying goes, “all things come to an end”.

Capital hears a strong case for investment

9:05am Wednesday 10th November 2010

I wrote this month’s column while sitting on a train heading north, leaving London feeling very proud of our city. I was part of a Bradford city delegation which went to the capital trying to drum up support for inward investment – and let me tell you if you had landed from a different planet you would be very clear where to invest.

The benefits of sensible lending

10:36am Wednesday 13th October 2010

We are one week away from the comprehensive spending review. I cannot remember a more anticipated government policy in the last 30-odd years or one that will have more far-reaching consequences.

Good progress at every turn

8:06am Wednesday 11th August 2010

I have been reviewing the agenda for the next Bradford Property Forum meeting, and it has brought home to me exactly how much does get done in four weeks and during the holiday season.

The best will not be beyond us!

10:53am Wednesday 14th July 2010

What fantastic news that the coalition Government spent its first Cabinet meeting outside London in Bradford.

Responsibility to the young

3:59pm Wednesday 9th June 2010

I was recently at the Variety Club Property Awards, which I thought were brilliant for two reasons.

Conciliation is good to see

8:24am Wednesday 19th May 2010

It took nearly a week following polling day before we finally knew what the new Government would look like. Opinions differ on the political to-ing and fro-ing, but it was very refreshing to see the mature nature of the discussions between the parties.

Key weeks for property industry

10:34am Wednesday 14th April 2010

As a student of politics in the 1980s, I was fascinated by the machinations, the pomp and ceremony and the wonderful history that our parliamentary democracy held.

Lights, camera - now for the action

8:36am Wednesday 10th March 2010

Last week brought what seemed like the first real sunshine in a long time, and a proper thaw in seasonal temperatures. A seasonal change like that often brings with it a change in mood and attitude, and Bradford has more reasons than most to kick on from that.

Much to feel good about

3:23pm Wednesday 10th February 2010

I can’t help it, but driving home from work last Friday in the daylight for the first time in five months just made me feel better.
