There is no denying things are tough.

The situation we face was recently described as “a correction on top of a correction, on top of a correction”.

The #metoo movement triggered a significant shift in attitudes towards sexual harassment and since this watershed in October 2017, we have had several high-profile cases of sexual harassment that have been poorly handled by organisations and employers.  The media industry gets particular attention, partly due to the profile of those involved but also because of our spectacularly bad track record for brushing things under the rug.
