Does The UK Have an Immigration Problem? | Adam Lawrence

What the Government Gets Wrong About Business | Robert Blakemore P.t 2

Rob has built a business, flown commercial aircrafts, and worked jobs from McDonald's to petrol stations, so when he talks about tax, benefits, and the cost of running a company in Britain, he's speaking from experience, not theory. In this episode, Rob gives us an unfiltered business owner's perspective on the UK's economic and political landscape: why the tax burden is quietly crushing entrepreneurs, what 9 million working-age people on benefits really says about our incentive system, and why the so-called "safety net" may be doing more harm than good. We get into the real cost of employing people, the freedom vs. government control debate, and what Rob would actually do differently if he were in charge. If you run a business, want to run a business, or just want to understand why Britain feels stuck, this one's for you. _______________________________________________________________________ Follow Rob: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/robert-blakemore-78b647106/ Follow Dylan Russell: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-russell-b33512163/  Instagram - @_dylan_russell _______________________________________________________________________ See you next week, Dylan Disclaimer: This podcast provides general educational information only, not professional advice.

Does The UK Have an Immigration Problem? | Adam Lawrence

Britain is at a breaking point. The deaths of Henry Nowak and Stephen Ogilvie have ignited a national conversation that can no longer be ignored, and the questions people are asking are getting harder to avoid. Adam Lawrence returns to the podcast to cut through the noise on immigration: what the numbers actually say, what it means for British culture, and why the debate has never mattered more. _______________________________________________________________________ Follow Adam Lawrence: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamglawrence/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamglawrence/]  YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@propenomixwithadamlawrence [https://www.youtube.com/@propenomixwithadamlawrence]  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/propertyadam [https://www.instagram.com/propertyadam/?hl=en] Follow Dylan Russell: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-russell-b33512163/  Instagram - @_dylan_russell _______________________________________________________________________ See you next week, Dylan Disclaimer: This podcast provides general educational information only, not professional advice.

Most People Dream of His Job. He Quit It. | Robert Blakemore Pt. 1

Robert Blakemore had one of the most coveted careers on the planet, a commercial airline pilot. He handled emergencies at 30,000 feet, and lived the dream most people only ever look up at. Then he walked away to run a business. In this episode, Rob opens up about the moment he decided to leave the cockpit, the sleepless nights that followed, and what it really takes to go from a stable high-paying career to the uncertainty of entrepreneurship. He also gets into the tax burden crushing business owners in Britain today and part 2 is a political conversation that is worth the wait. _______________________________________________________________________ Follow Rob: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/robert-blakemore-78b647106/ Follow Dylan Russell: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-russell-b33512163/  Instagram - @_dylan_russell _______________________________________________________________________ See you next week, Dylan Disclaimer: This podcast provides general educational information only, not professional advice.

The Wake-Up Call That Made a Dentist Build a Business Before He Had To | Kaival Patel

In this episode, we sit down with Kaival Patel, dentist and founder of the Kana Health Group in Milton Keynes, to explore how he went from working as an associate dentist to building a multi-practice business alongside his wife. Kaival shares the real story behind the leap: the failed purchase two weeks before his wedding, the hard lessons of buying an existing business, and the eye condition during COVID that made him realise he needed to take control of his future before life forced his hand. From navigating NHS dentistry's frozen budget to mastering the identity shift from clinician to business owner, Kaival brings honest, practical insight that goes well beyond dentistry. Whether you're a healthcare professional, an entrepreneur, or anyone thinking about taking the plunge into business ownership, this conversation is packed with the kind of hard-won wisdom that no university course will ever teach you. _______________________________________________________________________ Follow Kaival: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/kaival-patel-12a1931b0/ Kanahealthgroup.com Follow Dylan Russell: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-russell-b33512163/  Instagram - @_dylan_russell _______________________________________________________________________ See you next week, Dylan Disclaimer: This podcast provides general educational information only, not professional advice.

A Reform Member's Journey From Property to Politics | Part 2 | Wendy Whittaker-Large

Wendy Whittaker-Large built a multimillion-pound property portfolio from scratch, starting with a single student HMO in 1997 and scaling to nearly 250 units. all while raising four boys, two of whom were diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. In this episode, she takes us through the real journey: the mistakes, the joint ventures, the council tax battles she actually won, and how financial freedom gave her the independence to start asking uncomfortable questions about the country she loves. That independence eventually led her to Reform. Wendy opens up about why she joined the party, what she really thinks about Britain's future, the HMO myths she's fighting to correct, and yes, she answers the question directly: are you racist? The common assumption of members of this party. This is an honest, unfiltered conversation about property, politics, and what happens when a mother decides the system needs changing. _______________________________________________________________________ Follow Wendy: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendy-whittaker-large Instagram - www.instagram.com/wendy_whittakerlarge Follow Dylan Russell: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-russell-b33512163/  Instagram - @_dylan_russell _______________________________________________________________________ See you next week, Dylan Disclaimer: This podcast provides general educational information only, not professional advice.
