alan sugar

I Wouldn't last 2 minutes with this guy, typical small man syndrome, like that little **** green, would you call them sir !!!! been surrounded by arse lickers all his life. your right, horrible little ****..

Like him or loathe him you have to admire him. From humble beginnings to where he is now is remarkable. From living in a council flat in Hackney, using his £100 savings to start a business one thing he is not is stupid. His performances on Apprentice are just that.

you,ll be telling us next you believed mick McManus really threw giant haystacks into row z

thought it was Jackie Pallo.

A prick of the highest order. Yes, Lord Sugar, it would make you laugh.

thought it was Jackie Pallo

Mcmanus i remember him

You're losing it anxious. The one who you remember is Michelle McManus (and there was a fearsome brute if ever I saw one)

He's donated a lot of money to charity, including millions to Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital.

adrian street

Ricky Star, the US ballet dancing wrestler. Steve Logan, Ski Hi Lee. Those bouts were better choreographed than Cats!!

Wasn't he the Chairman of Spurs at one time ? I don't think he lasted long before the fans shouted ... Your Fired

yup got soooooooooooo ficking lucky and now has he bbc and others grovelling to him  pathetic

I bet you would really lay into him Dragon if you didn't like him

His wife said she received a Christmas card from him one year signed, "from Alan Sugar".

surprised it didn't say sir

Has anyone ever bought his Amstrad stuff? I haven't as this from a man who has bought a Binatone record player.

the Brexit dividend has finally arrived
sugar leaving the uk if Corbyn becomes PM,lets hope he remembers to pick up Winston,caine,lineker and co on the way

Yep AS  will surely suffer if he leaves for his ten million pound pad in Florida

if it means no more apprentice, labour landslide

I just don't get what the drive is, for a billionaire, to make a commitment to his time, to bother with this sort of thing!

Just another ego trip, I guess.

Same thing with "The Donald"....except that the motivation, presumably, is power!

yes lady he has an ego as big as the Eiffel tower

I'm not a billionaire but I respect those who have made it.
Having said that I can't think of an "amstrad" product I ever bought! :)

But he's a good bell-weather imho, of business. I'm sure they've said
that they fear a corbyn government FAR more than Brexit, and that makes
sense.

In a wierd way brexit THEN Corbyn is the worst possible scenario for
people in this country who are successful, they are locked in THEN the
theft and the state sponsored attacks begin.

It's no wonder Corbyn and his soviet friends actually want Brexit, it's
a simple fact they couldn't start their year zero communist **** while
part of the EU.... The only reason they are pretending to be against
Brexit is to keep the support of gullible student types etc...

Hello Dragon, now if I said that about Sugar the monumental b0llox I would have got about being a racist, nice to know c untty just picks on me

Woops, I almost feel like a notorious anti semite conspiracy theorist special person who thinks
the jews are part of a global control network as he believes in the nutcase rambilings of David Icke
is close to a keyboard. Can't think why. I must adjust my tin hat.

talking of boring old c unts...its the hapless not checking

not checking im anti Zionist not anti jew, now I know you don't know this,or anything else for that matter but there is a difference, any chance for might understand that? Nah!

Lets just get his beginnings straight -/
The Jewish community support each other 100%
They buy from each other , deals are made in the Synagogue all the time..
This one would go ..
Alan’s  started up a small business ,see you support him ,
buy a few items off him get him going ..
yes, no problems ..
With each member tossing in a loose grand or so
This £100, would soon be £100k .,
If we could  ALL get that kind of back up support starting off
Then we could all be pretty comfortably off pretty quickly !!
Unless youve worked with the Jewish “club” you wont realise
howmuch they help a new “member” taking his first steps in business.
Be it a Solicitor, Jewel merchant or Trader .
Never has the term-  “ Born with a silver spoon in his mouth “ been more apt !!

scissors, have you got specific evidence that happened in the case of Sugar?

If it were that easy they'd all be high fliers in business.

Scissors, I only had to get as far as your 2nd line. The Jewish community certainly do not support each other 100 percent. I had a London residence for some time in a Jewish area and I know that I am correct. However, I would point out that you have made a valid point about today's society possibly without realising it. When the Jews arrived in the UK escaping from Europe in the 1930s, they either helped each other and/or worked very hard to earn enough to live without income support or other benefits. When the Hindus got kicked out of Africa in the 1970s/80s, they helped each other and/or worked very hard to earn enough to live with MINIMAL benefits. But today, these people arriving on boats-mainly adherents of the Religion of Peace- land on the beach, are spirited away for medical treatment, given places to live and food. These people are using up resources that the indigenous UK homeless should be given.


I heard on LBC this morning a do gooder from some local charity in Kent. It make me nauseous. These boat people are landing in the UK illegally. Therefore they are criminals. And how are they punished? With food, healthcare and places to live. I would not rescue them, but let them drown. The word would soon get back that the 3 grand they pay the people smugglers is wasted and that the UK is no easy pushover. It would soon stop. How would you like the last bed in your local hospital taken up by one of these criminals when your nearest and dearest needs it. Cue all the human rights Guardian readers!

I did like the wizard of OZ,.... and that my friends is wasted

When the Jews arrived in the UK escaping from Europe in the 1930s, they either helped each other and/or worked very hard to earn enough to live without income support or other benefits.

I would suggest that most of the Jews in the UK today are descended from those that arrived between 1880 and 1900 fleeing Russia but the same would have been true then.

I was referring to the Jews who arrived in the 1930s because it is more recent. I did not mean that ALL Jews came at that time. In fact Jews can be traced back to William the Conqueror. I bet they didn't live on benefits!

As posted the wizard of oz was a good film

Actually, around 100,000 Jews came here in the 1930s - I didn't think it was that many.

About 140,000 arrived in the late 19th century.  Before 1880 the Jewish population of the UK was around 46,000.

The first Jews did arrive in Britain with William the Conqueror but were expelled in 1290. They were not permitted to return until the 1650s.

Scissors your not correct when it comes to Alan Sugar, he originally lived round the corner from me & he was not given a big helping hand at the start, he built his business up starting from absolute nothing with a few quiz in his pockets & that's a fact.

quiz !! quid

I read his biography some years ago and iirc, his early childhood years were in Stepney. The family later moved to a council flat in Hackney (possibly Dalston?) which AMS said was luxurious compared to Stepney.

I think he moved out to north east London in his early 20s.

He said he didn't receive a lot of love from his parents which is "maybe why I'm the way I am."

However, I seem to recall that his father helped him out to buy a car or a van when he said it would help him with his business.

All in all, I like the guy.

All this Lord nonsense we must be the only country in the world that calls people sir and lord, absolute ridiculous .

Quite right your Grace....

Think his first house was in Marlands road in Clayhall  Redbridge two minutes from me, obviously not known back then but I remember being about ten & knocking on Trevor Brookings door when I was about 10 on a Sunday afternoon for his autograph,he also lived in Marlands Road.

Mentioning I was 10 twice, this man flu is playing with my head

putting 250 grand into an apprentice winner who,s sold 400 bikini,s in 3 years and who,s USP is having reversible G strings and budgie smugglers,
call me thick but I,m sure theres a very good reason that hasnt dawned on sugar or his new partner, why the greatest designers and fashion houses in the world have never went into reversible underwear,

2019s time for the Grand National will be longer than the existence of this winning business.

I think that this year was another great success in promoting women in business by Sir Alan and his team. I look forward to attending lots of student pool parties next year to support the brand and the feminist movement.

don't think the sisterhood will be impressed by one contestrant berated for having a soft porn advert in her interview and last nights winner having a 1970,s robin asquith confessions of a swimwear salesmen as her pitch

hes ganna love the reversable swim wear market ffs
