Hostilities broke out at Norwich Union's annual jolly to the Alpine slopes for the Army skiing championships this year.

Two prominent figures in the UK's broking community skirmished on the slopes, when, it seems, one made comments about a character from The Simpsons running a broker. The other took great offence, believing that he was being identified. The result: plenty of glowering on the piste and a few choice words exchanged aprés ski.

Many people in this industry fall out, but forget their differences after a few beers. But this one, I am assured, looks set to run and run.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
