Lawson resigns from Sunday Telegraph

Dominic Lawson, long serving editor of The Sunday Telegraph , has resigned.

No reason has been given for the departure of the 48-year-old, who has edited the title for 10 years.

Sarah Sands, the current deputy editor of The Daily Telegraph has been confirmed as his replacement.

Murdoch MacLennan, the chief executive of the Telegraph Group, wished Mr Lawson well with his future plans.

He added: “Sarah will be responsible for reviewing the style and content of The Sunday Telegraph and its supplements. Alongside Martin Newland, she has done a first class job on the daily, boosting the sales of the Saturday edition. I have no doubt she will bring a new and different approach to the Sunday market.”
