Daily Express editor Peter Hill has left the Press Complaints Commission.
The move follows two months after his newspaper (along with its sister Sunday and the Star and Sunday Star) published front page apologies and paid the parents of missing child Madeleine McCann £550,000 in libel damages.
He’s replaced on the 17 strong commission by Mail on Sunday editor Peter Wright.
