Was such a pleasure to team up with my old colleague @Rachel_Spike to bring this story to a wider audience today in @mailonline. Happy to stand up and say the things that need to be said, even if they're a painful self-truth. Not enough of it going around any more. Thanks to everyone for the kind words. thisismoney.co.uk/money/bill…
