Hello, I've been unfairly dismissed in my redundancy process, no questions, but I do have an unemployment insurance. Now, it makes me think that my insurance will investigate if it's unfair or not, because they wouldn't normally insure an unfair dismissal.

Car insurance in a hurry
I am buying a new car, and I’m not trading in the old one. I need insurance for the new one, but I need to keep the old one insured until I can sell it. That could take a few weeks.
