News about Andrew Marvell

I have always enjoyed working alongside men, even at the Sunday Telegraph in the 1980s, where I edited their now quaintly named women's pages. Every day, the news editor would barrel past with his exclusively male cohort on their way to a three-hour liquid lunch, gaily chanting: 'Women's ghetto, women's ghetto!' However, working in Downing Street was horrendous, considering the information provided at the Covid Inquiry last week by former Cabinet Secretary Helen MacNamara about the behavior in No. 10 during the pandemic crisis. WhatsApp is a misogyny. Male egos are unconserved. Rampaging mayhem. All of this fit the increasingly common term "culture of toxic masculinity." No one working there has ever expressed concern about such an environment. Did they not notice it?Didn't it bother them?Or did they just want to keep their heads down? It's also reasonable to say that they were all as appalling in their attitudes as Dominic Cummings.
