North American miners are striking gold, literally and figuratively. $2.9B raised in 185 deals this October, the fastest pace since 2013. From gold to copper and uranium, investors are piling in. When the miners boom, markets listen.

The business rates system needs to change. We've called on the Chancellor to act in the Budget to make a positive difference to thousands of local shops. You can get involved by sending a letter to your MP here: https://t.co/O9IPlLM0O6

Local convenience stores are facing huge obstacles, including the Government’s increase to employer NI contributions and organised shoplifting. I recently had the pleasure of visiting one of our local stores, ran by three generations of the same family, to discuss their concerns.
