Pain for thee, of course, and not for he. Tim Gurner is not talking about restraining his own material aspirations. He’s not suggesting he reinvest profits in his workforce to encourage productivity. He doesn’t plan to offload anything like thehe’s photographed with in a Daily Mail article, or cut back bonuses to executives, or in any way restrict the greed of the corporate class he represents so elegantly.
According to a piece last year about his investments in an exclusive luxury wellness brand, Gurner has apparently been on a “personal wellness journey” these last few years. As he brags about “mass layoffs” delivering “less arrogance” from the employment market, no less than the, Professor Steve Robson, has suggested Gurner may be encouraging his victims on a “wellness journey” in the opposite direction.
But the risk of someone like Gurner influencing policy discussions isn’t limited to degrading markets, or even to the ruin of individual human lives, their families or communities.
