Martin Lewis explains car finance mis-selling case as Supreme Court to deliver verdict
Martin Lewis has explained what the car finance mis-selling case is as the Supreme Court is set to deliver its verdict. The judgement will be delivered on Friday afternoon, which could pave the way for a massive redress scheme potentially affecting millions. It will rule on a shock Court of Appeal ruling last autumn that all car finance agreements with hidden commission were unlawful. The outcome of the ruling could have major consequences for the industry, with the FCA telling the Supreme Court last year that almost 99 per cent of the roughly 32 million car finance agreements entered into since 2007 involved a commission payment to a broker.

Rachel Reeves rejects Donald Trump's call to halt ‘unsightly windmills' in North Sea
Rachel Reeves has rejected Donald Trump's call to halt the spread of 'unsightly windmills' in the North Sea and drill for oil instead. The US president took aim at wind turbines within hours of landing in Scotland last week for a trip that included a meeting with Sir Keir Starmer. But the chancellor has insisted that there is no "either/or" choice between renewable and non-renewable energy sources on her visit to Lossiemouth on the North Sea coast in Moray, on Friday. Mr Trump hit out at one of the Labour leadership's flagship strategies, on net zero, when he told Sir Keir to 'stop with the costly and unsightly windmills ' and instead forge ahead with more drilling for oil in the North Sea, in May. Earlier this week he criticised Sir Keir's taxes on North Sea oil, just hours after praising the prime minister when the two met at Trump's Scottish golf course. Mr Trump said the resource was a 'treasure chest for the United Kingdom' as he urged Sir Keir to 'incentivise the drillers'. It came less than a day after Mr Trump described Sir Keir as 'strong' and 'respected' in an impromptu press conference, and even said that he wanted 'to make the prime minister happy'. Asked whether ministers would 'unlock" the North Sea "treasure chest", as the US president suggested, Ms Reeves said: "Oil and gas are incredibly important for the UK and our energy security. And oil and gas is going to play an important role in our energy mix for decades to come. "...But it's not either/or. At the same time, we're investing in clean homegrown energy, including at Berwick Bank in Scotland, which will create thousands of new jobs and power millions of homes. "And that's what we need to do to make sure that our economy has this energy security that we need, that we bring down bills and bring more good jobs to Scotland." The US president has previously ranted about 'big windmills' that 'destroy everybody's property values, kill all the birds'. He has also claimed that they are unreliable energy sources, once bizarrely saying, 'and then, all of a sudden, it stops; the wind and the televisions go off. And your wives and husbands say, 'Darling, I want to watch Donald Trump on television tonight. But the wind stopped blowing and I can't watch. There's no electricity in the house, darling'.' Conservative shadow Scottish secretary Andrew Bowie has written to Sir Keir, calling for a review of policies affecting the oil and gas industry. "As President Trump has said, the UK's 'very high' tax on oil and gas companies is a deterrent to investment," he wrote. "The extension of the energy profits levy (EPL), coupled with uncertainty around future licensing and investment signals, has created a climate of instability that threatens jobs, innovation and the region's economic resilience. "President Donald Trump's remarks during your visit - calling Aberdeen the 'oil capital of Europe' and urging the UK to 'bring it back' - reflect a sentiment shared by many in the region. "May I urge you to consider the president's call to 'incentivise' domestic production of hydrocarbons? "Oil and gas still have a vital role to play in our energy mix and economic future; British people would rather see the UK benefit from domestic exploration and drilling than import more from Norway and Qatar."

Huge celeb star is opening new UK bakery that's ‘better than Greggs' with ENORMOUS sausage rolls & doughnuts galore
A BAKERY hailed by fans as 'better than Greggs' is opening a brand new branch in West Sussex – and it's serving up giant sausage rolls and doughnuts galore. The latest Coughlans Bakery is set to open in Horsham on Friday, August 22. 3 3 The business is part-owned by local comedy star Romesh Ranganathan, who joined the family firm in 2024. In a video posted to Facebook, Sean said: 'Exciting news! We've just picked up the keys to a new shop.' "We've just picked up the keys to a new shop,' adding: 'We've wanted to come to Horsham for a long time. "We've got family down here and love this place.' The new site will be located at 102 Blackbridge Lane, and Sean described it as a 'quirky little site' that he hopes will be a welcome addition to the community. 'We're all about community and we love little community shops,' he told the County Times. The opening marks a full year since the family-run bakery launched its first Sussex branch in Maidenbower, Crawley, and the team say they've had their eyes on Horsham ever since. Coughlans, founded in Thornton Heath, south London, back in 1937, has grown into a fan-favourite across the south-east. Despite flying under the radar for years, it now boasts 31 shops and a loyal following. The bakery is famous for its enormous sausage rolls, eye-popping doughnuts, indulgent cakes, and extensive vegan range – all made fresh daily using traditional recipes passed down through three generations of the Coughlan family. Greggs Steak & Cheese roll appeal Romesh joined the business in 2024 after falling in love with the bakery's values – and its baked goods. Not content with just investing, the Weakest Link host rolled up his sleeves and served behind the counter at both the Crawley and Dorking shops earlier this year. Sean said: 'He likes to get stuck in.' Romesh, who lives locally, said at the time: 'I'm the most excited about this announcement because there is something that I've wanted to get involved with for a long, long time and it is... Coughlan's Bakery.' He joked alongside Sean in a clip: 'I'm gonna be doing more baking, he's going to be doing more stand-up comedy.' Coughlans has earned cult status online, with fans on social media boldly claiming its sausage rolls are 'better than Greggs'. One fan said they 's**t all over Greggs,' while others insisted the taste and size are in a different league. Still, customers do pay more for the artisan goods. A small sausage roll at Coughlans costs £2.05, compared to £1.65 at Greggs. Other items, like the tuna mayo salad baguette, can also cost over a pound more. But many loyal customers say it's worth it. Despite its rapid growth, Sean says the bakery is still rooted in the same values Jack Coughlan started with: good-quality handmade food, supporting local suppliers, and putting community first.
