Andrew Tate‘s multi-million-pound supercar collection has reportedly now been seized by authorities in Romania following his arrest.
Yes that’s right.
The very same collection of cars that caused the whole Andrew Tate vs Greta Thunberg saga at the end of 2022, which, if you’ve somehow already forgotten, saw the 36-year-old former professional kickboxer turned controversial media personality – and self-professed misogynist – bizarrely, and rather unnecessarily, pick a back-and-forth Twitter fight with the 19-year-old Swedish environmental activist, has now been seized.
The 11-piece seized car collection is believed to be worth over five million euros in total.

It’s apparently not just cars that authorities have seized from Tate either, as a number of buildings – including one where he lived and allegedly held six young women – have also been taken, according to the local news report.
The seizing of the car 11-piece collection comes after Tate and his brother Tristan were arrested in Romania on 30 December 2022 on suspicion of human trafficking, rape, and forming an organised crime group.

The brothers are currently being detained for 30 days by Romanian authorities, alongside two other Romanian suspects, following their arrest.
Prosecutors in the country said Tate and the other three suspects “appear to have created an organised crime group with the purpose of recruiting, housing and exploiting women by forcing them to create pornographic content meant to be seen on specialised websites for a cost”.
Prior to his arrest, Tate – who grabbed headlines several times last year due to his misogynistic comments, which have previously seen banned from Twitter, Instagram, and most notably TikTok – took to Twitter to direct a message at Thunberg gloating that he currently has 33 cars with “enormous emissions” and that “this is just the start” of his growing collection.

Thunberg’s unimpressed viral tweet reply calling out Tate’s “small d**k energy” has since become one of the top 10 most-liked tweets of all time, and prompted Tate to hit to Thunberg with a bizarre response video.

It’s been widely reported that the pizza boxes which featured in the video alerted officials to Tate’s whereabouts and lead to his subsequent arrest – although this has not been confirmed.
Home Bargains has announced a special two-day closure of all UK stores

Home Bargains has, once again, announced it’ll be closing all its UK stores on both Boxing Day and New Year’s Day this year.
And it’s to make sure staff get a ‘well deserved break’.
After what has been yet another busy year for the retail industry, many workers have been left feeling like they could do with a little extra time off, which is why Home Bargains is following on with what has become a now-annual tradition by shutting up shop on two bank holidays.
All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day & New Years Day.
Announcing the move in a post on social media, the discount retailer confirmed: “All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day and New Years Day. We would like to thank all our colleagues for how hard you have worked this past year, and want you to relax and enjoy the Christmas break with your loved ones.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time the retailer has kept its doors shut on bank holidays.
Many shoppers will recall it has made the same decision to give hardworking staff a break every year since 2019.
Explaining a little more about the decision taken to close all its stores, Home Bargains said: “As a family-run business, we know the importance of being together at Christmas with those we care about most, now more than ever.
“This is our way of saying thank you to our colleagues for their continued hard work and dedication.”

Two Greggs in Manchester will be serving their breakfast menu in the evening next week

Who says breakfast has to end at 11am?
In news that’s set to be music to the ears of breakfast lovers in Manchester, Greggs is giving them exactly what they want.
We all know that brunch is a ‘thing’ by now, so now it’s time for brinner to make a name for itself instead, as Greggs has teamed up with Heinz to bring its much-loved breakfast menu back for tea time, kicking off from 4pm onwards.
The move comes as a new survey has found that the majority of Mancs (69%) admit to enjoying eating breakfast food in the evening, saying it’s ‘convenient and comforting’ – even ranking breakfast as a ‘more important’ meal than tea, as well (38% vs 36%).

Greggs says it has ‘lost count’ of the amount of customers that have tried to order breakfast items after the usual cut-off time, especially in Greater Manchester.
But luckily for those breakfast-loving Mancs, they can finally get their favourite breakfast and sauce pairing long after the morning rush is over next… but only at two Greggs branches, and only for a very limited time.
On Wednesday 14 and Thursday 15 October, the Heinz x Greggs Brinner collab will be available at Greggs St Mary’s Gate and Greggs Oxford Road, from 4-7pm only.
“We’ve lost count of the number of customers who have tried their luck ordering breakfast after 11am, so when Heinz came to us with the idea of making Brinner a reality, it felt like the perfect excuse to give the people what they want,” explained Zoe Harris, who is the Customer Director at Greggs.
“And let’s be honest, a Greggs Bacon Roll just wouldn’t be the same without a squeeze of Heinz Tomato Ketchup.”
