Would it be correct to say:

Capital belongs to a hundred families and none of them produce intellectual capital.

Then you go to ComicCon, Comic Expo, the Street Art Festival and other geek/fringe/niche gatherings, and you’re bowled over by the sheer creative energy. These people want to break out, but the system keeps locking them in.

The kind of picture that’s being painted for CHOGM business delegates is many things.

1) Lawyer’s paradise: financial services, tax haven.

2) Unimaginative: we’re interested in your money, not your creations. We’re accountants, not creators.

What it is not is modern, creative, forward-looking, innovative and inventive.

Oh and it is absolutely not inclusive at all.

Er, distinguish between ‘fin’ and not? When Nicolas de Piro himself publishes full-page spread of our Phyllis wearing a lace doily?

Not really, no. It’s one of the safest ways to end up looking like an upmarket secretary or school-teacher.

I really don’t feel like getting into this, though.

Shopping at the places you mention, and buying the brands you mention, does not constitute either good taste or style.
