Osborne begins new era

Great to see my old colleague and sort-of boss Alistair Osborne kick off his new job at The Times with a cracking column on the Pfizer/AstraZeneca takeover situation.

Alistair is a professional wind up merchant and I was regularly on the receiving end of his wrath (any minute now I'm sure I will receive an email from him telling me off about my poor English/grammar etc) but I have to admit he is one of the finest business journalists I have ever worked with. Here is a link to Alistair's column that was published in The Times today: http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/business/columnists/article4093361.ece.

Also, I recommend reading Gary Parkinson's trade secrets piece on the "cocktail bar kings are back" for some insight into the grimy side of stockbroking and dealmaking. Here is a link to Parky's column: http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/business/columnists/article4093271.ece
