pick up

Photos shared by the department show a Ford pick-up with severe damage to the front driver’s side of the vehicle and a flat tire.

Alex Rose, 30, deliberately drove his black pick-up truck into William Birchard and Darren George while driving the wrong way down a motorway slip road in Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey, in July last year.

The cuts come off the back of a $12bn income tax giveaway announced in February and lower interest rates from India's central bank, all of which bode well for a consumption pick-up.

Companies that make consumer goods are also upbeat about a pick-up in demand.

Business and leisure travel are showing signs of a pick-up after a weak start to the year.
