Hello, I'm Josh Funnell
I'm experienced at joining up the dots between Westminster and business. I take complex issues and communicate them as compelling stories. You can see some of those stories below.
Video
These days, there's so much information. It's difficult to know where to start. But cutting through to what's important is crucial for businesses and politicians alike. Video bridges that gap — transforming abstract policy and complex corporate strategy into human stories. Content I've produced has generated over 35 million impressions on social media. Here's some below.
Speeches
Speeches are a long form way of communicating your message. They can be intensely political and detail heavy. But they're easy to get wrong. Below are three speeches I wrote that were written in the context of landmark political moments, and aimed to strike an authoritative tone whilst conveying our narrative.
Business Builds Britain
A keynote address on the role of private enterprise as the driver of national growth.
Steel Industry (Special Measures) Bill
An opening parliamentary speech scrutinizing the rushed nationalisation of UK steelmaking and its economic consequences.
Supporting Seasonal Work & Hospitality
A parliamentary closing speech defending the hospitality sector against punitive taxation and rigid employment laws.
My OpEds
I've ghost written and placed OpEds regularly across the national press. They are brilliant way to communicate a message in writing, and to use a spring board to develop your story once they're published. Here are three examples of some of my work.
Angela Rayner is about to launch a devastating assault on business
The gap between what Britain needs and what this Government is offering grows with each passing day.
Labour has landed itself in a steel crisis of its own making
Nationalisation should be a last resort, but steel is vital for our security, resilience and economy.
Only business can generate growth, and only the Conservatives can be the party of business
Plummeting confidence under Labour promises a ‘January of discontent’
