A brave, sensitive & deeply moral man. The greatest investigative journalist of his age, no one did more to expose abuse of girls by rape gangs, or so loathed grandstanders & political opportunists. Proud he was our Times colleague & very sad to lose him. thetimes.com/article/c589b0…

I wrote this during the Paris Olympics about the travesty of refusing to sex test boxers fighting in the female category. It explains the importance of World Boxing’s change of policy yesterday. All too late for the women cheated out of Olympic medals.

A moving correspondence between the novelist Kate Mosse and an Afghan woman author, which is also an exquisitely beautiful piece of online storytelling. The Taliban letters: one woman writes in freedom, the other in fear. The Times and The Sunday Times thetimes.com/article/5a3a45…

If you want to ignite an abortion culture war saying you're "comfortable" with women terminating a pregnancy at 37 weeks, is a can of petrol. Yet this radical change is set to go through with almost no debate. And I'm a life-long, pro-Choice advocate. thetimes.com/article/ive-al…

Arguments I never want to hear from law-makers again *That thing you're concerned about may never happen *There will be v few cases *It's already law in X "It's 'international best practice' *Only the Right/Christians/etc make your points Sound policy stands on its own merits
