Congratulations Martin.

Having attended LSE in the 70s I very much enjoyed your story - made me laugh!

I always knew I liked this site, now I like it even more.

Well done.

Well done!

I've just applied for a job at LSE, so maybe you can pull some strings for me.

martin, we, as readers and users of the site have a fair idea of of what you believe, but it would be interesting to understand where the altruism comes from. maybe this site ain't the venue for it.

See, i just find it striking that sooo many students that were prominent in their Students' Unions back in the day end up either as captains of industry or toady politicians. You have risen and continue to rise to something far greater for this country than either.

it would just be interesting to learn what epiphanies lead you to your current role.
