We turned on paid subscriptions on Substack yesterday and discovered subscrbers’ notes! It’s been incredibly heartening to hear directly from people who have been following my work and now want to support it.

Hallo

Today I start using Substack

I used to like Twitter but always felt very constrained by the 144 limit

This brought problems for the irony-challenged, who misunderstood a lot of what I was trying to say

This is a particular problem for me because I seem to be regarded as ‘on the left’ by people on the right, and' ‘on the right’ by people on the left

Apparently this makes me controversial, and therefore box office poison

On this day 40 years ago, on January 20th 1985, Paolo Maldini made his AC Milan debut in a game against Udinese.

Maldini went on to play 902 club games, all for the Rossoneri, and became one of the greatest defenders in football history.

Legend. Icon. One-club man.

Umm I have found almost 1000 new readers in the last 24 hours and I’m very confused but incredibly touched too. I’ll do my best to explain what’s happening to the NHS, and will share my personal perspectives too. I worked as a doctor for ten years before giving up my medical career to fight for the NHS. It’s so important that everyone understands what’s happening x
