If you are able to, rent a cabin or house outside of your major metro area over the weekend. Bring a book or two. No laptop or tablet. Turn your phone off. Will feel amazing.

Several staff said Hands’ commented on the size of women’s breasts. Another said he told a story about a business associate masturbating in the bath.
They said he was volatile & unchallenged; “charming and charismatic” one moment, “harsh [and] domineering” the next.

NEW 🚨
In recent years, Guy Hands has focused on legacy. He retired from Terra Firma to focus on philanthropy, & last week ended a controversial deal with a £6bn swan song.
But former staffers described to me & @carolinebinham another side to Hands.

First up, @antoniacundy's portrait of three former Opus Dei assistant numeraries & the first women in the Western world to speak publicly about their treatment. A rich, triple portrait spanning some 30 years on.ft.com/4gkO3Qz

Huge admiration for @KirstyWark The predictable “it’s all woke” commentary has begun but as is often the case with cases such as these, it’s the older women speaking in defence of younger people which shifts the dial.
Retain older women in broadcasting.

I presented a show for the BBC on my work into the experience of assistant numeraries in Opus Dei.
This is Raquel's story. She was a member in Guatemala until 2019.
Have a listen. Huge thanks to stellar producer Rachel Briggs.

Staff at ITN have challenged execs over a report into its handling of grievances and NDA use.
"If this was a public sector organisation, we would say... I’m surprised there have been no resignations or firings," one star said.

The prosecutor's inquiry request was first reported in Argentina by @PaulaBistagnino in @eldiarioes.

Opus Dei said the accusations were a "complete decontextualisation" of "the vocation freely chosen by the assistant numeraries" and that after "three years of similar accusations made only in the media, the investigation is necessary to clarify the situation definitively." 4/5

🚨 Argentine prosecutors accused senior Opus Dei leaders of exploiting and trafficking women.
It's the first criminal proceeding to stem from a wave of public allegations *and* the first time OD's leadership has ever been legally implicated in them.
