My heart sank when I heard a trail for “A discussion of the implications of the hacking scandal for the shape of power in Britain” to be broadcast on Radio 4 at 9am tomorrow – surely this subject has been done to death for now?
But it lifted again when I heard that Onora O’Neill will be one of the participants – I still remember her Reith lectures from nearly a decade ago. And it should ensure it's not a programme only for navel-gazing media types.
