Gary Neville's apology after 'driving ban' for speeding

Gary Neville has issued an apology after revealing he will be banned from driving after speeding.

The former footballer took to Twitter on Saturday afternoon in response to a tweet by Paul Waugh, a journalist at The i newspaper regarding the Partygate fines, the MEN reports. In his reply, he revealed he was recently caught speeding and is "banned" from driving as he is "so sorry".

Following reports that Prime Minister Boris Johnson could receive three more fines over the partygate scandal, Mr Waugh quoted an ally of Mr Johnson who is reported to have given "NO10 defence". He tweeted: "If you’re caught speeding at 35mph four times, that doesn’t mean that you were speeding at 140mph. It doesn’t mean that you really endangered life because the cumulative effect of all your speeding in 30mph zones amounts to 140pmh, does it?"
