Nihal asks, how do listeners respond to longer waiting times for non-emergency operations?

Nihal asks: What's your response to longer waiting times for non-emergency operations? NHS England boss Simon Stevens says there'll be a "trade-off" for improvements in areas including A&E and cancer treatment. Also, Swiss-Indian racing driver Neel Jani talks about being one of the most successful South Asian drivers in the world. Plus, actors Danny Ashok and Darren Kuppan discuss the play they star in, Guards Of The Taj, which looks at the consequences faced by guards and workers who tried to steal a glance of the Taj before building was completed. And our Unsung Hero for the week is Arun Kapur, who uses YouTube to deliver a powerful message about mental health, specifically for boys in the South Asian community.
