Expected to be working on ⁦@TimesRadio⁩ ‘s excellent Spring Statement coverage. Instead it’s nil by mouth, a long, ongoing wait for emergency surgery and being looked after by fantastic NHS staff. Never had an operation before either. Wish me luck.

"Not all men" - but so many men helped Gisele Pelicot's husband: The 73 men who came to her house and raped her. The 3 men who left - and didn't call the police. The thousands of men who saw the ads on the website - and didn't call the police. theguardian.com/world/article/…
