Irregular Thoughts

Exploring mistakes in regular thinking …

I am a writer, speaker and adviser. I work mainly with regulatory bodies and professional organisations. I also write for newspapers and professional journals.

Topics I have tackled in my writing range from social media harm to Prince Harry’s bottom; from the offside rule in football to Microsoft’s anti-competitive behaviour. Topics I have written about here include:

• why Covid lockdown rules need to be less fair, not more so

• when legitimate businesses make themselves look like internet scammers

• how proportional representation ensures that promises will be broken

This blog used to be located on my professional website, where you can find an archive of articles.

I also have a site called I learned to write. As you might guess from the title, it’s a story about learning to write. But not as a 5-year-old child, forming letters and words. It’s the story of my time as a 25-year-old business consultant, a 35-year-old writing in the Financial Times and a 55-year-old teacher in business school.
