Anxious Moments

Last week’s Business Eye Sustainability Awards at the Culloden Estate & Spa went off very well…..eventually. The tragic death of a motorist on the A2 road just yards from the hotel gates left us all with a bit of an issue. The road remained closed


Family Values

Some of our leading family businesses have been talking business in a unique series of interviews organised by Northern Ireland’s Family Business Forum. Six of the best have been chatting to two men who are among those who make the Family Business Forum tick –


Sunshine, Sausages & Suckling Pigs

We missed it last year because we had to nip off for a visit to Portugal, but we’ll be back for our annual trip to the Balmoral Show at the end of this week. As always, our trip will be courtesy of our good friends

So Rishi Sunak seems a bit bemused by the fact that, in his words, since the pandemic something has gone wrong. A whopping 850,000 more people are now ‘economically inactive’ in the UK as a whole than before Covid came a-calling. Bloody hell, Prime Minister,


Let’s Talk About Sex

Given that we were nearly cancelled a month or two back thanks to a harmless little quip about International Women’s Day, we’re a tad reluctant to delve into the thorny and hazardous subject of Relationships & Sexuality Education (RSE) in our schools, the topic of
