Congratulations to Sir Alan and Lady Bates

I send my heartfelt congratulations to Sir Alan and Lady Bates following their marriage on Richard Branson’s Necker Island in a ceremony officiated by the Virgin tycoon.

Many of you will know the extraordinary story of Alan Bates and his wonderful partner Suzanne. Alan is a former sub-postmaster who has, with the support of Suzanne, remarkably led the campaign for victims of the British Post Office scandal.
