DAY FIVE – Click or Clunk, where Big Brother meets the financial press, has taken an unexpected turn. There’s going to be a shock departure from the house.
After just four days of the reading public clicking to vote for their favourite City pundit, Click or Clunk is mounting a surprise eviction. One of our contestants, Nils Pratley at the Guardian, James Harding at the Times, Alex Brummer from the Daily Mail, Damian Reece at the Telegraph or Jeremy Warner at the Indy, must leave. Who has received the lowest number of clicks?
“Click or Clunk house – this is FT Alphaville. You are live online. Please do not swear. The clicks have been counted and verified and the first person to leave the Click or Clunk house is……Alex.
“Alex, you must leave the Click or Clunk house. You have thirty seconds to say your goodbyes. I’m coming to get you.”
The Mail man goes. But the game continues tomorrow. Read the selected snippets of business wisdom, and click to vote for your favourite City columnist.
