Entrepreneurial socialism, how business can help the homeless | Lawrence Kenwright | TEDxNorthwich

[@Wirralwonderer]

The world needs more selfless people like Lawrence. He was also the first person that gave me a break in my career.

[@johnroberts5886]

It’s great to see what Lawrence does for the city, he has built a great concept in our city and probably one of the only guys that puts his knowledge to work to create jobs and helps us scoucers keep some of our iconic buildings alive and helps others on his way. Very proud of you Lawrence Kenwright 👍👍

[@garysee2819]

Powerful words!!! The title of this talk, gets you thinking straight away. How can two words with such differing points of view come together. This talk sets out clearly how with the right morals and values you can achieve great things. Being entrepreneurial doesn’t mean you forget where you come from, it enables you to do good things for those less well off. A true socialist in what he does and how he does it... well done Lawrence, keep up the good work supporting those who are less well off and often have nothing at all. Imagine what could be achieved if the same morals and values Lawrence owns, were shared by the millionaires!?

I done a 6 weeks training course with signature living and honestly had the most amazing experience and met some off the most nicest people ever!! It was a great opportunity and i learnt so much from them. Most genuine people.Amazing xxx

[@kimsmith3982]

Keep drinking the kool-aid. Google the name of Signature Living and Lawrence Kenwright and check out their media coverage in the BBC etc. You, too, will get scammed by them one day, as they do everyone else.

The world needs more like Lawrence Kenwright, and I for one will follow in his footsteps.

[@jennycarline5675]

Such an amazing man in so many ways he loves and cares with all his heart he gives and asks for nothing in return I’m so proud to know him 😊👍

[@kevindermotodoherty5312]

I love TED Talks. Liverpool is so lucky to have Lawrence! He has passion, commitment and common sense. He cares about the people he works with and the environment in which he operates. He’s someone who changes people’s lives; not destroys them. He represents a new hope.

Interesting Ted Talk and some interesting concepts to test us for the 21st Century. Would like to hear more about entrepeneurial socialism

[@veronical.lianmaseras4543]

Mr Kenright, If you were Armenian or African Entreprenuer in Liverpool, you would be welcomed with the open arms. Why Liverpool Leaders not like people from Liverpool?

[@joshuagharis9017]

Socialism: democratic economy Capitalism: undemocratic economy Simple choice 👌

[@psychobudgie]

Excellent Ted Talk with some interesting ideas and insights.

[@markcynic808]

Nowadays he's spending every last penny of other people's money. I'm glad I'm not one of those who "invested" in his businesses and is looking to "fill the void" in their savings.

[@scottc8549]

Let's see how long your comment stays here for

[@markcynic808]

@@scottc8549 You shouldn't worry yourself with such a trivial thought. Worry about the scores of gullible idiots and their unfounded belief in the worthless chatter of Kenright.

Boo mark. Most of us "common folk" don't have extra funds to "invest" schmuck

listened to this a few times now. great insight.

A new vision at last!!

[@kimsmith3982]

Shame on Lawrence Kenwright for sullying the brand of Liverpool. Scousers are unfairly seen as being thieves and Lawrence Kenwright defrauding tens of millions of pounds from lenders hasn't helped with that stereotype. Have some shame and pay back your lenders who trusted you Lawrence!!

[@roseyedwards3140]

You must work for the City Council criminals! THEY have sullied the Liverpool brand! You Kim Smith don't know the meaning of 'shame' clearly! If you cannot speak Truthfully, with Integrity say nothing! There are those of us from outside of Liverpool who can see and smell the corruption in this city BECAUSE we are not from here! Liverpool has at least 4/5 generations where criminality is the norm. Sad but true. We have young people, children who have never been given any opportunity to see that they can achieve anything they want in life, because all they have been shown are criminal behaviors, negative stereotypes etc. If you are able to critically analyze Kim Smith then try NOT to listen to the BS about Mr Kenwright as there IS a poliTRICKal agenda against him BECAUSE he unwittingly challenged the foul poliTRICKal criminality by exercising his humanity to the homeless. Understand what Entrepreneurial Socialism is instead of posting biased and libelous comments!

its about tome business did more to help the homeless crisis.

[@kimsmith3982]

Your reputation is in the gutter Lawrence. You have stolen millions of pounds of other people's money. Your previous business went bankrupt also owing millions. You can try hyping yourself up and some fools will get sucked in by you but if anyone Googles your name or company name all they see is reports from the BBC etc. about you failing to pay back your lenders. You've been making excuses for months to your Loan note lenders. The only way to regain even a gramme of your reputation is pay them back *today*.

[@enoch327]

Sounds like paternalism to me. Economic power still concentrated in the hands of a few business leaders.

[@kanenewman5517]

This is an oxymoron and business and socialism has irreconcilable class interests that are at odds.
