How Britain's richest man is so secretive even his receptionist hasn't heard of him

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 16, 2024
Ask anyone if they know who Michael Platt is and they will probably reply: 'Michael Who?' In fact, he's the richest person in Britain. But unlike, say, petrochemicals tycoon and Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe (£13.1 billion) and inventor James Dyson (£10.8 billion), who occupy second and third place in the UK wealth league, Michael Platt has remained intriguingly under the radar.

ALEX BRUMMER: Bank of England: The bank of England needs to lead and give the country a chance of flourishing

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 20, 2024
Headline inflation, which excludes energy and food, is down, core prices (which exclude electricity and food) are decreasing, service sector costs are on decline, and some fresh food prices are declining. All of this before the Bank of England's financial squeeze had enough time to function. There could not be a better time for the Bank of England to get up to the game than today.

As he blames Charles Dickens' portrayal of entrepreneurs, James Dyson says'snobbery' is holding back British industry

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 23, 2023
'People like to make things, and suppliers want to grow and love manufacturing,' James Dyson (left) said often. But the 76-year-old said, "We don't have it here." In an interview with the Daily Telegraph, he continued: "It's sad." I always blame people like Charles Dickens (right). Entrepreneurs [in Dickens] weren't middle class, they were lower-middle class, and they were not middle class.'
