My old E46 got hit with the Dart Charge while it was on the back of the truck taking it to be scrapped. Insult to injury. (Luckily they cancelled it)

Scammers targeted me when I sold my car β€” luckily I saw the signs Will Dron put his car up for sale online and received a call from an interested buyer within minutesΒ .β€Š.β€Š.Β but soon alarm bells were ringing

Encountered this car sales scam yourself? It seems that many people have.

I put an advert for my car on Autotrader and within minutes relieved a call from a buyer who wanted to see it ASAP. He had just one request...

People often don’t believe me when I tell them that even the Sun & the Mail greeted an interview I conducted with Nigel Farage, at his request, by condemning the obvious racism he displayed. I remain amazed that other interviewers still struggle to expose him. I won’t get another chance.

The deliberate destruction of Picturehouse Central - London’s best cinema and social space - by its rapacious landlords (the same guys threatening the Prince Charles) is an ongoing disgrace. So upsetting to witness. This place used to be thronged with people working and chatting and socialising.

Netanyahu’s plan to occupy Gaza is abhorrent and it's increasingly clear that his goal is ethnic cleansing.

The UK can't just sit on its hands. The Prime Minister must stop all arms exports to Israel and sanction Netanyahu and his cabinet.

This reminds me of when I buy my daughter a cheap magazine with a plastic toy on it to keep her quiet for half an hour.

Hammering up and down the Ardeches Gorge in a Liquid Yellow R26 Megane on the launch. It was a stretch of road so good we just had to do it repeatedly. Then saw lots of other journos doing the same thing. Also driving R8 at Portimao and F12 at Fiorano. Pinch me moments.

"This isn't about Hamas, this is the Israeli govt's agenda who want to displace and replace the Palestinian people - they have been trying this for 77 years!"

Husam Zomlot says the international community has had their eyes opened to Israel's "endgame".

Sure, the latest Teslas are still pretty good, but surely this kind of thing has to factor into people's buying decisions...

It says a lot about where we're going that the BBC is now running stories in which they ask lifeboat crews whether they will apologise for using their boats to save lives

For people who conflate Hamas with all Palestinians…

Hamas won power in the 2006 election

There have been no elections since

They won with 11% of the votes of the total population

11%

…and yet 100% are paying the price.

They’ve lost the Express. Maybe, finally, Labour will start to pay attention. They do seem to think of the Express as their moral guide these days.
