This is serious. 400 academic jobs! The closure of vital schools. I’m glad to see this response and I hope they will keep pressuring university management to change course.

If you can get tickets to see Jenufa at the Royal Opera House, go. It is phenomenal and worth every one of your pounds. Superb in every single respect.

This one has hit the stands and I am delighted. It's Leighton's work through and through with me doing bits and bobs. Some papers are a pleasure to work on and working with Leighton is always good for the brain. Good for the soul too.
