0:00.0	But yet it's interesting that some people coming out of the UK have sort of disproportionate
0:06.1	results, especially given how poor the sort of entrepreneurial spirit is in the UK.
0:12.4	They tend to leave.
0:14.2	Look, there's you, Jay Shetty, there's now, well, Ali Abdal, there's now Stephen Bartlett.
0:23.9	Yeah, what's going on?
0:25.5	What do you make of the state of the UK at the moment?
