Finally have the CCTV footage of the culprit who broke into our office and stole our camera equipment. £5k to whoever helps bring him to justice. Do you know this man?

Latest in the London crime wave: Someone broke into our studio in the office and stole 3 of our cameras yesterday. £10k+ of equipment. Reporting to police but doubt anything will be done. (Our office is a couple of hundred metres from Scotland Yard)

Germans are up in arms when it comes to making the gdpr an easy and convenient way of doing business on the internet - it’s cultural, coming from the Nazi-era surveillance times

VC's whining about losing deals because of valuation (i.e., the winning firm overpaid) is the moral equivalent of sales reps complaining about losing a deal because their competitor undercut them on price. Both are lies losers tell.

"Basically, expert input (other than to avoid things that are like actually fraudulent / wrong) is usually bogus at seed. You like the founders and directionally believe in the category or you don’t. It’s not that complicated." 🎯 @FinnMurphy12 on @drnovac's newsletter

The exit tax has been confirmed and is happening. 🤦‍♂️ Multiple credible sources say @TorstenBell is driving it with Minouche in support. Torsten... I get it. We just saw Nik from Revolut move to Dubai and pay zero capital gains tax. This looks like a simple solution. It's not.

Permitting reform means something different to everyone. Yet most agree that *something* must be done. In my debut for The Bully Pulpit, I broke down the history of where things went wrong, and highlighted what a deal should look like this Congress:
