She will apparently be on the programme tomorrow talking about the impact of her report a year later.

I won't be able to listen but just a heads up if anyone else is interested.

She tackled the BMA objections very elegantly. 'I'm not sure what it is they object to - more services, better training, better research? They haven't said what their problem is.' Nuala reads out a statement saying Cass should have listened to those with 'lived experience, which HC then answers with a raft of specific examples, showing the depth and breadth of her evidence-based research.

TRAs are used to arguing in soundbites and slogans. Cass has got a 400 page peer-reviewed report.

Cass - project was 'fulfilling' but disinformation was 'disappointing'.

Now taking public transport again, thank goodness for that.

She's just so good! Measured, calm. Makes the BMA look like the petulant children that they are.

Thanks, OP.

Presented by Nuala McGovern - is she new?
