New Website of the Week 

EP are delighted to launch a new website promoting industry entrepreneurs and innovation this week.It can be hard to truly innovate. Inventing the future is never easy. The future often comes from unexpected sources. Innovation may come from within a business but for many they do need support. Innovation can simply mean thinking differently in the way an organisation approaches problems. Today, new ideas must be designed to combat issues and also create solutions to problems that may be faced in the future.

Brexit Comments of the Week

“It's taken for granted that the EU wants to punish the U.K. for deciding to quit, partly to teach other restless members to behave, and partly because Britain just has it coming. I see the reason in such thinking -- but it doesn't advance the EU's larger purpose of a closer union based on popular consent. You can strengthen obedience by making examples and threatening reprisals, but you don't build loyalty that way, and loyalty is what the EU most sorely lacks.Britain's tactical choices have been terrible and it faces severe consequences. But, judging by this process so far, the EU isn't much better at seeing where its interests really lie.”
