What’s ahead for 2017
After the US election, I was certain that 2016 would be remembered as the year when politics became predictably unpredictable (here’s a blog I wrote last month).
The landscape in the UK has changed significantly in the last twelve months. The UK voted to leave the EU, we said goodbye to David Cameron, and now we have a new Prime Minister who has promised to trigger Article 50 before March 2017. Yes, we live in interesting times.
