Media Coverage

“My first media interviews and profiles were as chair of Relate at a time of considerable heat over ‘get-married, stay-married’, the rights and wrongs of less adversarial divorce, and whether and how people could improve their relationships. None of the interviews from this period were publicly posted, being pre-internet, but they may be somewhere in the BBC, Channel4 or ABC archives. My more recent and available interviews are about politics and government, mainly in the periphery of the mainstream media. Established news channels have as much difficulty as the politicians seeing the real sources of problems. The UK is desperately short of original intellects.”
