Days after losing Terry, his widow Janet received a letter making an offer of compensation – far below the amount the couple had claimed. She describes the offer as a "slap in the face," and says it's prompted her to share their story publicly for the first time. Terry used redundancy money to take over the Hockley Post Office in Stockport in 2005. But less than two years later he was suspended for alleged shortfalls.

Terry Walters, who was 77, died last month after years of ill health. He was one of the former sub-postmasters who took the Post Office to court in the landmark case led by Sir Alan Bates, which helped expose the scandal.

Homeowners who say their houses are being destroyed by unsuitable insulation are missing out on measures to fix it as the work was carried out too long ago. The government has found a "serious systemic" issue in homes fitted with insulation under two of its own schemes since 2022 – and ordered installers to put it right.

So sad to hear this news. Nick was a powerhouse of Welsh political journalism who was extremely generous with his time and knowledge. Thinking of Nick’s family and everyone who was lucky enough to work with him.
We are deeply sad to hear about Nick’s sudden passing. Having joined HTV Wales in 1988,he played an instrumental role in shaping our political coverage since the early days of devolution. A friend & colleague to so many of us, he'll be very much missed. https://t.co/waUd08pOgT
