London Press Club

Press Club hosting debates, Q&As and social events in exclusive London venues.

[Robert Forrester @vertumotorsCEO]

An early start with Nick Ferrari on LBC this morning, discussing what tomorrow’s Budget could mean for Britain’s motorists and our industry.

As I said at the London Press Club Awards last week, we need to look at the cumulative impact of policies affecting drivers. The car remains essential to millions of people for work and family life, creating freedom through mobility. Let’s hope tomorrow’s Budget recognises that. Listen to the full interview below 🎙️

We were delighted to return to Stationers' Hall today as headline sponsor of the 2026 @londonpressclub Awards, celebrating excellence in British journalism and recognising the individuals whose reporting helps inform, challenge and engage the public.

All guests arriving were welcomed by two of our outstanding cars, and even an amazing @DucatiUK bike, showcased in the Hall’s historic courtyard.

As part of the afternoon, I had the privilege of speaking and presenting awards alongside journalists, editors and media leaders from across our national press. The event was a fitting celebration of the professionalism, integrity and dedication that underpin a strong and independent press.

At @VertuMotors, we recognise the vital role journalism plays in explaining complex issues. As a business that has evolved significantly since its founding - two decades ago this year - we have seen first-hand the importance of accurate, insightful reporting in telling not only our story, but the story of the wider automotive sector during a period of considerable change.

From the transition to electric vehicles and evolving Government policy, to wider shifts in mobility and consumer behaviour, informed and insightful reporting has been instrumental in bringing complex issues to life, challenging policy, scrutinising decisions and ensuring informed public debate.

Following today’s speech, I have been quoted in @motortradenews and @CarDealerMag this afternoon, if you’d like to read:
