A good distillation of the various facets and factions, but I don't quite see 'what really drove him to leave'.
Headings & standfirsts are put on at the office. I never choose them.
A small group of us on the steps of the Royal Albert Hall were told by Sir Simon cheerfully that we were mad. My reply that as some of us were Scousers what did he (a former Prommer and a Scouser) expect. The boy done good.
