After 12 fabulous years I’m leaving Auto Express and Autovia at the end of March.
I've had an amazing time doing some incredible things.
Sad to be leaving the team and titles I love, but the car business and people who work in it are awesome and that’s where I’ll be staying.

Emergency legislation - to exonerate all sub-postmasters/mistresses at a stroke, to enable faster compensation, and to lay out how those accountable will be pursued - is only option after 20+ years of this

This denial by Vennells in 2015 is sickening. @ITV’s #MrBatesvsPostOffice has exposed so much rot. Compensating victims isn’t enough. Every senior person involved in the #PostOfficeScandal should be jailed and left penniless, as were their victims.

Well said @charlesforsdick about boosting take-up of languages. “Life is a vocabulary test,” as one of our German teachers quoted to us !
The Times and Sunday Times@thetimes
Experts warn that teenagers, especially boys who are less likely to study a language at A-level than girls, risk becoming “little Englanders”, who do not know the basics of how to communicate in France, Germany, or any country where English is not spoken #Echobox=1691861288-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thetimes.co.uk/article/german…

🚨OPINION THREAD: By 2030 the UK will only sell electric cars. BUT only 1 in 5 women have considered electric. I had the opportunity to go to @forduk's #WomenDriveElectric event for a peak at the new #Explorer. After weighing up the pros and cons, here is why I would go electric:
