    Thanks, Martin. I’m not going to argue with a word he’s said here. He continues to do incredible work. I’d love to be able to help him even more.
    Consumer journalism “absolutely, manifestly, directly impacts the lives of our viewers.” Watch @MartinSLewis' rousing speech from last night’s RTS Television Journalism Awards, where he won the RTS Special Award @MoneySavingExp #RTSAwards

    Steve Wright was the voice of Reading’s 210. He spoke to us as kid Journos at BBC Local Radio. He was unfailingly kind and generous to me whenever we met. A generational talent. Smart, funny, warm. He cared. I’m so sad today.

    Travel providers ranked on their response to Covid and refunds. Great work, Martin!
    New. The 50 best and worst travel firms ranked for refunds. Big ones at the bottom incl Ryanair & TUI, at the top Hays & Jet2 holidays. See how yours fared (& get refund help)... moneysavingexpert.com/news/2020/05/m…

    Replying to @StephLunch
    She should know by now that mixers are only for spirits.

    Don’t ever get fobbed off onto the manufacturer if your white goods go wrong. It’s the retailer’s job to put it right - regardless of warranty, guarantee or company policy. It’s the law.

    Meet #gizmo, the dog we bought from a puppy farm. He's now in much better shape i'm happy to say. #RogueTraders

    So. To be clear. No company policy or membership scheme guidance can take away your rights in law. You don’t have to accept a voucher or credit note in exchange for your holiday or flight. And right now I wouldn’t.

    One of the reasons the travel refund matters: at a time when we are being asked to obey laws old and new, it’s important to show that the same is expected of businesses. Otherwise respect for the law breaks down. #RefundPassengers #RefundRefusers

    No landlord should be able to discriminate against a prospective tenant because they receive benefits. #EndDSSdiscrimination

    I know what you're thinking. @Rylan and I must be brothers separated at birth. He's on #roguetraders this week!
