A British soldier has described the moment he saw two colleagues killed in "friendly fire" in Afghanistan.

Sergeant Guy Bates said he heard the "whoosh" of a Javelin anti-tank missile, seconds before it landed.
Capt Tom Sawyer, 26, of Hertfordshire, and Cpl Danny Winter, 28, from Stockport, were killed in the explosion in central Helmand in January 2009.
Two other soldiers were injured in the blast, which was ordered by the Danish Army, the inquest heard.
The men were among a group of British troops taking part in a joint operation with the Danish against the Taliban, the inquest heard.
Sgt Bates, one of the men injured in the explosion, said the team were providing covering fire from a rooftop when mortars fired by the Danes started landing closer to their position.
"This was when the hairs on the back of my neck started to stick up," he said.
Sgt Bates, who has since left the Army, said that Capt Sawyer was on a radio alerting his superiors to the imminent danger when small arms fire started.
"At that point I was on my knees waving. It was not automatic, it was deliberately single shot and quite accurate," he said.
"I was pretty sure that we were going to get hit by something..."
"There was quite a bit of cursing: 'What do these plonkers think they are doing?'" he said.
"That message seemed to have got through because the small arms fire stopped."
But Sgt Bates said, a couple of minutes of later he heard a "whoosh" sound.
"I saw a light go into the air and I assumed that it was a flare," he said.
"Just after that I remember seeing the impact and just for a split second everything illuminated and I saw it hit Danny and everything went orange.
"I could hear Tom and I was scrabbling around in trying to find him. I applied a dressing to his head. I was also calling for a medic.
"I was expecting something else to come back down on us and I was trying to get everyone off the roof."
Investigations into the incident have shown that the missile was fired by British personnel, but that the order was given by a lieutenant in the Danish Army - referred to only as Soldier A.
The Danish soldiers have declined to attend the inquest and their evidence will be given through witness statements.
Sgt Bates told Wiltshire and Swindon Coroner David Ridley that he had concerns about a previous joint operation with the Danes.
British forces had created a "restricted fire area" to reduce the chances of friendly fire, he said.
Sgt Bates explained to the coroner that there was a "robust procedure" that British troops went through before firing artillery, mortar shells or calling for air support to target an enemy.
Asked whether the British troops were "properly resourced" in January 2009, Sgt Bates replied: "Not ideally.
"I think we were given enough to get on with the job.
"Were we properly resourced? We would always want something extra. The Americans call us 'The Borrowers' and we would make do with what we could get.
"Should we have had more specialist kit and more boys? Yes."
Capt Sawyer was serving with 7 (Sphinx) Commando Battery, 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery.
He was in Helmand province deployed on operations as a fire support team commander attached to Zulu Company, 45 Commando Royal Marines.
Cpl Winter was a specialist mortar fire controller and was serving in Helmand province with the mortar troop of Zulu Company, 45 Commando Royal Marines.


A landowner accused of manslaughter after a builder was electrocuted by a cable, has blamed a co-defendant.

Farm owner Roger Matthews told Truro Crown Court he did not want to tell other people "how to do their job".
Jason Morgan died when his ladder touched an 11,000 volt power cable at Great Brynn Barton Farm near Roche, Cornwall, in June 2011.
Mr Matthews, 48, said co-defendant Philip Tucker, 57, from St Wenn, had been responsible for health and safety.
Mr Tucker was hired to do the roofing on a large steel barn extension and in turn hired Mr Morgan's employer, Intanet Safety Net Ltd to install safety netting.
When asked by his defence barrister, Michael Vere-Hodge QC, who was responsible for health and safety during the project, Mr Matthews replied: "Mr Tucker."
He told the court: "It was very much that netting and roofing was a specialised job that required a competent person, ie Mr Tucker, to supervise it."
When asked what was in his mind as a landowner Mr Matthews replied: "I could not tell Intanet or Mr Tucker's men how to do their job."
The court previously heard Mr Morgan, from Bristol, was working on a 4m (13ft) ladder within 2m (6ft 6in) of the power cable.
Giving evidence Mr Matthews said as far as he knew "there was no need to be diverting the cable".
Mr Matthews and employee Norman Treseder, 55, from Wendron, deny a charge of manslaughter.
Matthews Plant Hire Ltd and Mr Tucker deny health and safety at work charges.
The trial continues.


A double from Dejan Meleg ended Gap Connah's Quay's Europa League hopes and sent FK Vojvodina into the third qualifying round 3-1 on aggregate.

The Serbia Under-19 international curled home a 25-yard free-kick after seven minutes for the visitors.
Wes Baynes saw his free-kick brilliantly saved as George Horan also headed narrowly wide for the hosts.
A Meleg penalty put FK Vojvodina 2-0 up, before Michael Wilde's consolation effort in Rhyl.
Connah's Quay manager Andy Morrison, who was sent to the stands during the game for what he described as "sarcastic comments", was nonetheless proud of his side from the north east of Wales.
"The timing of the first goal was a killer, the plan was to stay in the game," he told BBC Radio Wales Sport.
"It has absolutely killed us to concede.
"But I am proud of the side. They couldn't have given more.
"The spirit within our group, the heart and desire, we take a lot of positives from this run."
Gap Connah's Quay hads lost 1-0 in the second qualifying round first leg in Serbia.
Nomads held out until the 86th minute with Aleksandar Palocevic's winner denying them a draw following a brave defensive display.
FK Vojvodina will now face Dinamo Minsk of Belarus in the third qualifying round.
All the Welsh Premier League sides have now been eliminated from Europe after The New Saints were beaten in the Champions League.


Melissa McCarthy has overtaken Scarlett Johansson in Forbes' annual rich list.

McCarthy earned $33m (£25m) before tax between June 2015 and June 2016, making her the world's second highest paid actress, behind Jennifer Lawrence.
Johansson, who was placed second last year, dropped to third, earning $25m (£19m) across the year.
It tops off a busy year for McCarthy, which saw her appear in the all-female Ghostbusters reboot, as well as The Boss, which topped the US box office.
Johansson has appeared in Captain America: Civil War, the remake of The Jungle Book and the Coen brothers' film Hail Ceasar! over the last year.
Forbes reported Lawrence earned $46m (£34.9m) before tax over 12 months to make her the world's highest-paid actress for the second year running.
She appeared in the last film in The Hunger Games franchise and the Oscar-nominated Joy during that time.
Former Friends star Jennifer Aniston's earnings of $21m (£15.9m) scored her fourth place while Chinese actress Fan Bingbing was fifth with her annual takings of $17m (£12.9m).
The only new addition to this year's list was Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone, who earned $10m (£7.6m) to take 10th place.
According to Forbes, Padukone earns considerably less than her Hollywood counterparts for her on-screen roles, but supplements her income with multiple lucrative endorsements.
Charlize Theron, Amy Adams, Julia Roberts and Mila Kunis completed the top 10.
A separate list of highest-paid male actors will be published on Thursday.

Billy Connolly has been forced to give up playing the banjo and guitar because of Parkinson's Disease.

The Scottish comedian and actor started out as a folk singer before developing his stand-up act.
The 72-year-old often travelled with his banjo but now says he can no longer play as he prepares to travel across the US by rail for a new TV series.
Connolly said Parkinson's had particularly affected the use of his left hand.
When he was on Desert Island Discs, Connolly chose a banjo as his luxury item and he also has a banjo tattoo on his left hand.
In an interview in Canada to promote his stand-up tour, he said: "I'm starting a documentary series in a month's time following the railways around America. I'm going to festivals and state fairs and all that.
"I've been longing to do it for a long time. The only trouble is that we're going to bluegrass festivals and I've got Parkinson's Disease and it's really affected my left hand and I can't play the banjo or guitar any more, but I'll join in on the singing at least.
"It's been a rough go between that and the cancer. I kept telling my wife that haemorrhoids couldn't be far behind."
Connolly disclosed in 2013 that he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's and prostate cancer on the same day.
He has since been given the all-clear from cancer and will travel through 28 states and 8,000 miles by train later this year in new ITV documentary series Billy Connolly's Tracks Across America.


Two RAF fighters were scrambled in Scotland after two Russian planes entered UK airspace, the MoD has confirmed.

A pair of Typhoon jets took off from RAF Lossiemouth on Saturday morning.
An MOD spokesman said the fighters which were scrambled "in response to two Russian aircraft entering the UK's airspace", had both since returned.
The RAF and Royal Navy have been frequently called on to monitor Russian planes and warships in recent years.
Fighter jets were sent to monitor two Russian Tupolev TU-160 Blackjack bombers, which passed near UK airspace in February.
And in January, Type 23 frigate HMS St Albans was deployed to "man mark" the Russian aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov and its battlegroup as the vessels sailed close to UK territorial waters, returning from operations supporting the offensive in Syria.
The Kuznetsov group had previously passed through the Channel last autumn on its way to the Mediterranean and was escorted by Type 45 destroyer HMS Duncan and Type 23 frigate HMS Richmond.


A mechanic who admitted raping and strangling a family friend who he was living with has been jailed for life.

Peter Kibisu was lodging with trainee lawyer Elizabeth Nnyanzi and her family at their Harrow home when he attacked the 31-year-old in her bedroom.
The court heard Kibisu, 24, had tried to cover his tracks after the murder in August 2015 but was caught when police found his DNA on the victim.
He was ordered to serve a minimum jail term of 27 years at the Old Bailey.
More on this story and other news from London
Judge Richard Marks QC said Ms Nnyanzi was an "outstanding young woman of immense talent and ability" who had died as a result of "unspeakable wickedness".
Mark Heywood QC told the court Kibisu had been living with the Nnyanzi family for nine months and was regarded as a younger "cousin" by the victim.
On 14 August the 24-year-old returned to the house after a drink and drug-fuelled night out to find Ms Nnyanzi alone, and raped and killed her.
He tried to cover his tracks by sending a text message to the victim while on the way to work later that day.
When he returned he called police to say he had discovered the victim in her room not breathing and the home's rear patio doors ajar.
Kibisu was arrested after a pair of bloodied boxer shorts were found in a bin and a tissue sample Ms Nnyanzi's fingernails matched his DNA.
Det Ch Insp Tim Duffield said the 24-year-old only admitted his guilt "when confronted with a whole raft of evidence".
In a statement Coleen Nnyanzi, the victim's mother, called Kibisu a "wolf in sheep's clothing" who had turned on a family that had "helped him in his hour of need."


A second independence referendum will not be held unless there is "public consent" for it to happen, the Conservative election manifesto says.

It also pledges there will be no vote on the issue "until the Brexit process has played out".
But the manifesto, which was launched by Theresa May in Halifax, does not specify what "public consent" means.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon wants a referendum to be held in the autumn of next year or spring of 2019.
Her call was formally backed by the Scottish Parliament in March - although it was opposed by the Conservatives, Labour and Liberal Democrats, with the Scottish Greens backing the SNP in the final vote.
The prime minister has repeatedly said that "now is not the time" for another vote on the issue, arguing that the focus should instead be on negotiating the best Brexit deal for the whole of the UK.
But Ms Sturgeon argues that the Scottish people should be able to choose which path to follow in the wake of the Brexit vote, and that blocking a referendum would be a "democratic outrage".
The Conservative manifesto claims that "some would disrupt our attempts to get the best deal for Scotland and the United Kingdom with calls for a divisive referendum that the people of Scotland do not want".
It goes on to say: "We have been very clear that now is not the time for another referendum on independence.
"In order for a referendum to be fair, legal and decisive, it cannot take place until the Brexit process has played out and it should not take place unless there is public consent for it to happen.
"This is a time to pull together, not apart."
Mrs May said the manifesto contained proposals that would "see us through Brexit and beyond", describing it as a "plan for a stronger, fairer, more prosperous Britain".
She has promised a "mainstream government that would deliver for mainstream Britain" if she wins the election on 8 June.
The manifesto includes a fresh pledge to curb immigration, and says the government will deliver a balanced budget by the "middle of the next decade".
On Brexit, it pledges to negotiate a "deep and special partnership" which will allow free trade between the UK and the EU's member states, but with the UK leaving the single market and customs union.
It also says there will be no increase in VAT, and promises to increase the national living wage to 60% of the median earnings by 2020.
And it says the so-called "triple lock" on pensions will be reduced to a "double lock" with the state pension to rise by the higher of average earnings or inflation - but it will no longer go up by 2.5% if they are both lower than that.
The manifesto says Scotland's economic growth has lagged behind the rest of the United Kingdom in recent years, but that the Conservatives "take seriously our duty to secure prosperity for the whole of the United Kingdom".
The document pledges: "We will, therefore, take concerted action to help secure the long-term sustainability of the Scottish economy. Scotland and Scottish industries will be central to our industrial strategy."
This action will include:
Scottish Secretary David Mundell, who was the only Conservative MP elected in Scotland in the 2015 general election, described the manifesto as a "plan that delivers for Scotland".
He added: "It shows that a re-elected Conservative government will continue to ensure that Scotland benefits from its membership of the United Kingdom."
The SNP said the Conservative manifesto was a "cruel and callous attack on families" with planned cuts that it said would hit pensioners, working families and public services.
The party's deputy leader, Angus Robertson, said: "The SNP already protect free personal care, free childcare, free school meals, and will stand up against these callous Tory cuts."
He went on to claim the Conservatives have "made a rod for their own back" over independence, because "if they now fail to win the election in Scotland they have no basis whatsoever on which to continue to thwart the will of the Scottish Parliament".
Meanwhile, James Kelly of Scottish Labour said the Conservative "ideological obsession with a hard Brexit" had allowed the SNP to kick-start a fresh campaign for independence.
He added: "This Tory manifesto means every Conservative candidate in Scotland is standing on a platform endorsing the abhorrent rape clause, the bedroom tax and swingeing cuts to social security payments.
"There is now a clear choice between a radical vision of a fairer UK with a Labour government, or Theresa May' Little Britain, closed off from the world and building borders as nationalist governments always do."


Babak Zanjani, sentenced to death in Iran for corruption, was an extraordinary person who went from trading sheepskins in the 1980s to becoming a key player in selling Iran's oil in the years when crippling international sanctions were imposed over the country's nuclear programme.

He called himself a hero, an economic soldier of the Islamic revolution who came to his country's rescue when the government could not sell oil or, even if they did, no international banks would agree to transfer Iran's money due to the sanctions.
He established one of the biggest enterprises in Iran's recent history, a holding that was involved in everything from transport to construction, from owning football clubs to selling oil, banking both inside Iran and abroad.
At one stage he valued himself at around $13.5bn (Â£9.5bn), an extraordinary figure for a country where most of the economy is owned by the state and the private sector is restricted.
It appears that he fronted his country in the markets, selling oil and returning money to Iran through a complex network of banks and businesses, some of which were set up and owned by his business empire, Sorinet Group.
For years things worked well for the businessman, who appeared in photos with high-ranking officials and was not shy of showing off his wealth, such as private jets and luxury cars.
But when the local media started to report on his wealth, he came under the spotlight and under suspicion.
Questions were eventually raised about how he could have made so much money so fast.
He was already under scrutiny when Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was in office and, a few months after the moderate government of Hassan Rouhani took office, Zanjani was arrested and accused of corruption and embezzlement.
The ministry of oil in the new government said Zanjani owed them $1.9bn in oil money and new claims were laid against him later on.
His defence team has always denied all the charges of corruption and says that, if he is released from prison and allowed access to his business network, he will return all the money he owes - something that sounds very unlikely after the death sentence announced on Sunday.
The sentence could have wider implications for Iran's economy, where many were involved in finding ways to avoid the sanctions.
Years of sanctions and the unorthodox ways that Iranian businesses found to get around the sanctions have created a situation where many business activities could fall into a grey area.


The leaking of a draft copy of Labour's general election manifesto is "far from ideal", the party's Scottish leader has admitted.

But Kezia Dugdale, who has been a critic of Jeremy Corbyn, insisted it included "a lot of really good ideas".
The document includes policies on renewing Trident nuclear weapons and opposing Scottish independence.
The SNP said the document showed the "chaos inside Labour", while the Conservatives said it was a "shambles".
The manifesto had been due to be finalised at a Labour meeting on Thursday, before being unveiled early next week.
But a draft version was obtained by media outlets, including the BBC, on Wednesday evening.
Labour's shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, has said he does not know who was behind the leak, which he called "disappointing".
Ms Dugdale told BBC Scotland that she had been "working very closely with the UK-wide team" on creating the manifesto, and said it was "very far from ideal" that it had been leaked.
The final contents of the manifesto were said to have been unanimously agreed at a meeting of the party's national executive committee (NEC) on Thursday afternoon.
Ms Dugdale did not take part in the meeting as it clashed with first minister's questions in the Scottish Parliament.
Speaking ahead of the NEC meeting, she added: "There's a lot of really good, solid ideas in there that all deserve to have their own ideas discussed in the pubs and town centres and streets of the country. It is a shame it has all been leaked in that sense."
According to the draft, Labour would:
The document also says Labour supports the renewal of Trident nuclear weapons, which are based on the Clyde, but that any leader should be "extremely cautious" about using the weapons - which are opposed by Mr Corbyn.
It commits Labour to opposing a second Scottish independence referendum, saying the party will "campaign tirelessly to ensure that the desire to remain a part of the UK is respected".
And it pledges to establish a Scottish National Bank, "under Scottish control", and backed by the National Investment Bank with Â£20bn of lending power to deliver funds to local projects and Scotland's small businesses.
Ms Dugdale said the renationalisation of rail and energy companies would "come with a price tag".
But she insisted: "The reality is that this is the message we have heard from the British people.
"They want to see these services work in their interests - they are fed up of private profits being the number one priority of the Tory government.
"That is why this represents a radical transformational plan for our country, and it is one that every labour candidate will be proud to stand behind."
Scottish Labour opposes Trident renewal - although Ms Dugdale has been in favour - but she said it had not been overruled by the UK-wide party.
And she said Mr Corbyn had made his opposition to both independence and a second referendum "very clear" as it would bring "turbo-charged austerity" in the form of "Â£15bn of additional cuts".
Responding to the manifesto leak, SNP candidate Tommy Sheppard said it demonstrated how "divided and chaotic the Labour party are".
He added: "Most of their MPs do not even support these policies.
"By contrast, the SNP have a strong track record of delivering for the people of Scotland, who are already benefitting from policies such as no tuition fees, free school meals, and votes at 16 - often in the face of resistance from Labour in Scotland.
"In particular, Labour have broken every manifesto promise they have made on tuition fees, so no one will believe a word they say now."
Scottish Conservative candidate Miles Briggs said: "Labour's leaked manifesto claims the party is opposed to a second referendum - yet we know Jeremy Corbyn has said he is "absolutely fine" with a referendum.
"Just as Labour can't seem to publish a manifesto properly, nor can we trust a word they say on the Union."
Tom Brake, the Liberal Democrat foreign affairs spokesman, said: "This manifesto became meaningless the day Jeremy Corbyn ordered his MPs to vote with the Conservatives and UKIP to give Theresa May a blank cheque on Brexit."


A statue by a renowned Victorian sculptor has been stolen from a park in his home city.

'Joyance', an 1899 statue of a boy by Sir William Goscombe John, was cut from the water fountain in Thompson's Park, Canton, Cardiff.
Sir William was one of the most prominent 19th Century sculptors and the theft comes in the 150th anniversary year of his birth.
Cardiff Council called it a "mindless crime". Police are investigating.
Executive member for sport, culture and leisure Councillor Nigel Howells said: "This is a mindless crime that has deprived visitors to Thompson's Park of a much loved feature.
"Security measures are in place at the park, with the gates locked every evening.
"This is an isolated incident and the matter has now been referred to South Wales Police".
2010 marks the 150th anniversary of Sir William Goscombe John's birth in Canton and a local pub is named in his honour, near where his street used to stand.
His statues and monuments can be seen in many places in the UK and abroad, including Westminster Abbey, St Paul's and Llandaff cathedrals.
Many remain in Cardiff, including the statues of Lord Ninian in the civic centre and 'The Elf' in St Fagans.
His father, John, was a woodcarver to the third Marquis of Bute and William assisted him with carvings at Cardiff Castle. Sir William, knighted in 1911, died in 1952, aged 92.
The statue, which is 4-5ft, was stolen in the early hours of Saturday, July 31.
A South Wales Police spokeswoman confirmed that officers were investigating.
Anyone with information is asked to call Canton Police Station on 029 2022 2111 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.


More than 4,000 warnings and 109 fines have been issued to Cardiff residents who put the wrong waste out for collection since new rules came in.

The notices have been given to residents for issues including overloading refuse bins, since waste collection changes started last July.
They included the roll-out of garden waste bins and smaller black refuse bins to boost recycling rates.
Cardiff council said residents had generally embraced the changes.
A total of 4,058 notices have been issued to households in the past six months warning residents about issues such as putting out the wrong type of bags or placing non-recyclable materials in a green waste bin.
Those who persisted to put out the wrong waste were given Â£100 fines, which could generate up to Â£10,900 for the council.
Most fines - 35 - have been handed out in the Adamsdown area of the city, followed by neighbouring Splott, where 28 fines were issued.
A Cardiff council spokesman said: "This city-wide process was always going to take time to implement due to the sheer scale of the operation. But it is essential that the council meets our statutory recycling target of 58% from all waste collected for this current financial year.
"Last October we announced that the "Stay out of the blackâ€¦ move into the green" campaign was working as tonnage of recycling material collected was up by 11% on the same time last year.
"Food waste had also increased by 15%. We'd like to thank residents for embracing the campaign and the need to increase city-wide recycling levels."
All councils in Wales must recycle 58% of their waste by March this year or face hefty fines.


Research into how computer games stimulate the brain could be used to help treat Parkinson's disease.

The study looked at the effects of touch screen "spatial reasoning games" on the part of the brain used to control movement.
Early research involving 16 people with Parkinson's showed it could help stimulate impaired areas of the brain and improve motor function.
The team, led by Bangor University, has received Â£33,000 for a second study.
Researchers at the university's School of Psychology have been working with Parkinson's experts at Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) and the Walton Centre in Liverpool.
The study required users to perform tasks like using mental imagery to rearrange shapes to fit a physical space.
The new funding, from the BCUHB Pathway to Portfolio Funding Award, will see 60 people with Parkinson's take part in another study which will explore further benefits of computer gaming.
Dr Charles Leek, professor of cognitive neuroscience at the university, said their research hoped to get parts of the brain "working more efficiently".
"These kinds of tests are incredibly simple and involve people making judgements about visual spatial relationships," he said.
"They involve the brain doing quick calculations of the dimensions of an object from a different orientation and how it will fit into the space provided."
Parkinson's is a degenerative disease of the nervous system which can cause muscle rigidity, tremor, poor balance and slow movement.
Claire Bale, head of research communications and engagement at Parkinson's UK, said: "So far, there is no conclusive evidence that brain stimulating computer programmes can be used as an effective non-drug therapy for people with Parkinson's.
"But we are keen to see what potential there is by using emerging technologies, such as brain training, to improve symptoms of the condition."


Midfielder Aaron Ramsey looks likely to miss Wales' World Cup qualifying matches next month.

Ramsey, 25, injured a hamstring in Arsenal's opening Premier League game of the season against Liverpool.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger said: "I don't think Ramsey will be available before the international break."
Wales opened their campaign with a 4-0 win over Moldova and play Austria on 6 October followed by Georgia in Cardiff three days later.
"There is concern because he has been out for so long," Wales assistant boss Osian Roberts told BBC Wales Sport before Wenger's latest comments.
"It's extremely disappointing after the magnificent tournament Aaron had at the Euros that he picked up an injury in the opening game of the season.
"It's a huge disappointment for him and for all of us. But let's just hope the situation improves for him."
Ramsey was Wales' outstanding player at Euro 2016, but was suspended for the 2-0 semi-final defeat by Portugal.


Huddersfield all but ended Leeds United's play-off hopes by coming from behind to win the West Yorkshire derby.

Stuart Dallas gave the hosts the lead with a header from Liam Bridcutt's deep cross, after Nahki Wells had seen an 11th-minute penalty saved by Leeds keeper Marco Silvestri.
Terriers skipper Mark Hudson levelled from Jamie Paterson's corner.
And Harry Bunn, Karim Matmour and Wells scored in eight second-half minutes to seal a comfortable win for Town.
The Terriers took the lead through Bunn's low strike in the 69th minute, before fellow sub Karim Matmour tapped home for his first goal for the club and Wells atoned for his penalty miss with his 16th of the season.
Leeds had gone into the match on the back of three successive wins but Saturday's defeat means they are now 15 points outside the top six with nine matches to play.
The victory lifted Huddersfield eight points clear of the bottom three in the Championship and avenges their 3-0 defeat in the reverse fixture in November.
Both teams face Yorkshire derbies after the international break, with the Terriers hosting play-off hopefuls Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds travelling to struggling Rotherham.
Leeds boss Steve Evans: "Huddersfield wanted it more than us in certain areas.
"When I joined the job was to keep Leeds in the Championship and that gets forgotten. We have become a mid-table side.
"It is easy to talk and harder to deliver, but I have a track record that I deliver.
"Days like today teach you more than the days when you beat Bolton and Cardiff."
Huddersfield head coach David Wagner: "This was a fantastic day. A brilliant three points, a massive three points, but I think we have played better games.
"We were very clinical. We always moan that we are not clinical enough, but the story of this game was something special.
"We missed the penalty, conceded a goal, but in the second half we were too quick and closed them down well.
"We knew this was a massive game for all the Huddersfield supporters. We knew we had to repair and correct the 3-0 (home defeat by Leeds)."


More than 100 people have been arrested in a crackdown on abuses in Thailand's multi-billion dollar seafood industry, officials say.

Last April the European Union threatened to boycott the industry unless it tackled illegal fishing and allegations of human trafficking.
On Monday, police said a taskforce set up since had investigated 36 cases and also rescued 130 trafficking victims.
Thailand is the world's third largest exporter of seafood.
Human rights groups have long highlighted abuses in the Thai industry, saying it is reliant on illegal fishing practices and overfishing, and involves trafficked workers from neighbouring countries who, they say, work in conditions akin to slavery.
Deputy National Police Chief Thammasak Witcharaya said that in the 16 months prior to the task force being set up only 15 cases were investigated, insisting that the crackdown had intensified.
He added that nearly all of the 102 suspects arrested were prosecuted and 36 sent to prison.
Analysis: Jonathan Head, BBC News, Bangkok
The problems in Thailand's seafood industry are complex and will not be solved quickly even with determined government effort.
There is the challenge of properly licensing thousands of fishing boats and reducing the fleet to a more sustainable size, but also of regulating a fragmented processing industry, one of the word's biggest, where endemic labour abuses exist.
Then there is the illegal but very profitable business of trafficking migrants through Thailand.
While these arrests are an improvement on previous years, it must be viewed in that context; it is progress, but limited.
The revelation last November that even a global brand as big as Nestle had discovered evidence of slave-like conditions in parts of its Thai supply chain is an indication of how deep-rooted the problem is.
The Thai military government, desperate to improve its ranking in the US annual trafficking report and to avoid an EU ban, seems willing to act. The real test will be the prosecution of those who are running illegal businesses.
Last year the inclusion of a senior military general among 88 people charged with trafficking was seen as a breakthrough, but Thai judicial procedures are slow.
Most damaging was when the police general who had led the anti-trafficking drive sought asylum in Australia in November. He claimed his superiors actually obstructed his work, and that a forced transfer to southern Thailand would have put his life at risk from trafficking networks.
The EU's warning to Thailand last April said it would block seafood imports unless Thailand implemented a tailor-made action plan within six months. About 15% of Thailand's seafood exports are destined for the EU.
The US also has Thailand on a blacklist for failing to do enough about what it called "persistent" labour abuses in the seafood sector.
Thai authorities have consistently said they are tackling the abuses and are confident they can address international concerns.
Rights groups have said that fishermen from Cambodia and Myanmar - also known as Burma - are trafficked and forced to work on the boats, and also highlighted the use of children working in the industry.


Rush-hour drivers were held up when an emu blocked a road after making a daring escape from its enclosure.

The bird is thought to have broken free from Highbridge Farm on Highbridge Road, near Eastleigh, Hampshire, at about 08:30 GMT.
Megan Strange, who was driving to work, snapped the emu as it ran among the cars.
A man ran after the bird and managed to catch it with the assistance of another driver and return it to its home.
Miss Strange, who works at the University of Southampton Science Park, said: "I was driving to my job as per usual and noticed there was a lot of traffic.
"Then I saw there was a big emu just running around."
According to the PR events executive, a man running after the emu could not corral it back into its enclosure.
She said: "Everybody was just laughing, it's an odd sight to see."
Miss Strange added that a female driver helped the man get the emu back on the farm before she drove off.


"Toxic" is how one minister described the government's dilemma over Heathrow.

In fact, the whole issue is so fraught that the country's most senior civil servant, Sir Jeremy Heywood, wrote to government ministers in the run up to the politically-charged conference season, warning them against speaking out.
Sir Jeremy's email said they could repeat statements they had made before the report was published in July, but urged them to keep quiet now.
It was received by some with deep irritation.
One cabinet minister told me it was "unprecedented". Other ministers believe the letter illustrates the political sensitivity of the decision.
The Cabinet Office said they would not comment on leaked documents, but the anxieties in government are real and are twofold.
There are concerns over any comments making the final decision more vulnerable to a legal challenge - tying up the decision in the courts for years to come.
And there is significant political opposition around the cabinet table, including from the London Mayor, Boris Johnson.
He, along with others, is all too ready to remind David Cameron of his own vow in 2009, "no ifs, no buts", ruling out a third runway at Heathrow.
But the business community is eager for a decision to be made, after decades of political dithering.
And the government, particularly the chancellor, have made big promises about pushing ahead with big infrastructure decisions, even citing the Airports Commission as an example of how the case for major projects should be independently made.
But resistance to Heathrow is passionate and powerful. The prime minister and the chancellor have promised to make a decision by Christmas, but that promise won't be easy to keep.


First Minister Carwyn Jones says Wales will miss out on important infrastructure projects unless his government has the power to borrow money.

He used the example of the M4 in Port Talbot, saying potential improvements would need funding with borrowed money.
The Welsh government is calling for borrowing powers as part of reforms to the way it is funded.
In a speech, Mr Jones also repeated a call for a written UK constitution.
The motorway in Port Talbot was likely to become "very crowded" in the future, prompting the need for money to be spent on it, said Mr Jones.
"The only way that can be done is through borrowing powers," he told a conference on constitutional reform and devolution in Cardiff.
Northern Ireland's devolved administration can borrow money and borrowing powers are being given to Scotland.
If the same did not happen for Wales there was a danger that schemes would not go ahead "simply because of their geography", the first minister claimed.
"That clearly cannot be right. We have to be in the same position as England, Scotland and Northern Ireland."
He said the Treasury had never contested the Welsh government's evidence that it is "underfunded" by the formula for handing out money to the devolved administrations.
A report commissioned by the previous Welsh government said it was being short-changed by the Barnett formula.
A separate UK government commission is looking into whether responsibility for some taxes could be devolved to Cardiff.
But Mr Jones said: "We can't go ahead with fiscal devolution without funding being addressed otherwise we risk locking ourselves into the current Barnett formula which is to our detriment."
In a wide-ranging speech, he said it was not fair that agriculture ministers from Westminster spoke for the whole of the UK at the EU.
He said: "There are four agriculture ministers in the UK and yet at the European Council of Ministers the politician who is effectively the English agriculture minister casts a vote on behalf of the four of us."
Defining what he called the "Bridgend question" - after his own constituency - Mr Jones said: "That seems to me increasingly unsatisfactory and unsustainable as time goes by."


This year's Autumn Statement will be the final one, the Chancellor, Philip Hammond, has announced.

Starting next year, the UK will have a Budget in the autumn, while a Spring Statement will be issued from 2018, replacing the March Budget.
However, this Spring Statement will be on a much smaller scale than the current Autumn Statement.
"No other major economy makes hundreds of tax changes twice a year, and neither should we," Mr Hammond said.
"This is my first Autumn Statement as chancellor," he said.
"After careful consideration, and detailed discussion with the Prime Minister, I have decided that it will also be my last."
The announcement means that the Budget statement due in March next year will be the last spring Budget.

The introduction of an autumn Budget means tax changes will be announced well in advance of the start of the tax year.
The chancellor said the change would allow for "greater Parliamentary scrutiny" of any changes ahead of their implementation.
From 2018 there will be a Spring Statement, which will be a response to forecasts from the Office for Budget Responsibility, but this will not be a "major fiscal event", according to the chancellor.
"If unexpected changes in the economy require it, then I will, of course, announce actions at the Spring Statement, but I won't make significant changes twice a year just for the sake of it," Mr Hammond said.
The chancellor said this was a "long-overdue reform" to the tax-policy making process in the UK.
This will not be the first time the UK has seen a Budget held in the autumn. There has been back-and-forth movement as governments have changed.
The practice during the Callaghan and Thatcher governments was for a Budget in the spring. It focused on taxation and was accompanied by an Autumn Statement setting out the government's spending plans for the next year.
In 1993, the then chancellor Kenneth Clarke merged tax and spending announcements into an autumn Budget. There was also a short summer economic forecast, when figures would be updated.
When Gordon Brown was chancellor, he reverted to a Budget in March and added a Pre-Budget Report (PBR), which was intended to be a short document reporting on progress since the Budget.
Without introducing any tax measures, the PBR was meant to assist the discussion of tax proposals, but it became for all intents and purposes a second annual Budget.
George Osborne changed the name of the PBR to the Autumn Statement, but the format was the same and it contained many tax measures, sometimes more than were included in the March Budget.
However, not everyone was happy with Mr Hammond's announcement to revert to an autumn Budget.
"The Autumn Statement has long been a Budget in all but name, and two Budgets a year are too many.  But the chancellor simply seems to be swapping the statements around," said Alex Henderson, tax partner at PwC.
"There's a good reason Budgets happen in March as that's when the government's fiscal year ends and there's adequate data to work with. March budgets date back to medieval times, for good reason," he added.


"To tell the truth, I didn't think I'd be alive," says Jason Wolfe, chief executive of GiftCards.com - the biggest gift cards website in the world - when asked if he ever dreamt he would end up as a successful entrepreneur.

That's because it is hard to imagine the future when you are 10 years old and your mother - disabled, on welfare, and struggling to cope with several children - sends you to live in an orphanage.
Mr Wolfe, now 45, says he spent his early years just wondering if he would make it into adulthood.
Today Mr Wolfe is the head of a successful firm that allows customers to buy pre-paid Visa or Mastercard gift cards that can then be personalised with a photograph.
And it's a booming business - between 2010 and 2013 Pittsburgh-based GiftCards.com saw its annual revenues rise by 72%, from $64m (Â£37m) to more than $110m last year.
Mr Wolfe says that while his upbringing might not have allowed him to dream about his future, it definitely helped prepare him for it.
"Going through difficult times as a young kid makes you resilient - so I felt like I could overcome pretty much anything," he says.
Mr Wolfe says that while he never set out to be an entrepreneur, he was inspired by the man who established his orphanage - the Milton Hershey School in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
The founder, Milton Hershey, was also the creator of Hershey, the famous US chocolate and confectionery company which is now worth an estimated $20.8bn.
"Probably subconsciously it was inside me that I wanted to walk in his footsteps," says Mr Wolfe.
He adds that the inspiration to get into the gift-giving business specifically came from memories of his childhood.
"I can remember lying under a blanket one Christmas Day because there was no heat in the house.
"Somebody knocked on the door and we looked outside and there was a box outside of gifts for us."
In 1994 Mr Wolfe graduated from Bloomsburg University determined to set up a coupons business, initially thinking he would sell them door-to-door to video stores.
However, he was then involved in a serious accident which put him in hospital.
Mr Wolfe says: "It was lemons to lemonade - I was recovering from spinal surgery, getting fusion in my neck, and I was just lying there.
"So I got a book and taught myself how to [computer] code," he says.
With his new found programming knowledge, Mr Wolfe decided to ditch his plans to focus on video stores, and instead be more ambitious and develop his coupons idea as a website. And so his first business was born - MyCoupons.com.
This was a a prescient move in 1995, when the internet was just getting off the ground.
Yet Mr Wolfe struggled to get the company up and running, making just $1,000 (Â£586) that first year. And then his girlfriend dumped him.
"I don't think she thought I was going to make out too well in life," he says.
As Mr Wolfe had been living with his girlfriend he suddenly found himself homeless, living out of his car for two months while renting office space from a friend.
Finally, he made a sale - to the owner of a company selling Italian espresso machines, who wanted to put a coupon on his website.
When the businessman said how much he was willing to pay MyCoupons.com for the coupon - $1,500 - Mr Wolfe said he knew the internet was his future.
From there, things picked up, and sister company GiftCards.com was founded in 1999 under its original name Directcertificates.com.
But only a year later near disaster struck when Mr Wolfe agreed to sell MyCoupons.com - which was by then getting 20 million page views per month - for $20m just as the dot-com bubble burst.
With the purchaser suddenly finding itself in financial difficultly, the payment was delayed, and Mr Wolfe ultimately only received $2m.
"I had to figure out how we were going to survive," says Mr Wolfe, who eventually trimmed his then workforce of 40 people to 14.
Mr Wolfe then successfully launched and ran a data tracking company, before taking a back seat from his business interests to help raise his son who was born in 2004.
"I grew up thinking that my father was dead - but he really took off when I was just four," says Mr Wolfe, adding that spending time with his own son was incredibly important.
However, when his son started going to school in 2008, Mr Wolfe decided to refocus his time and efforts on running GiftCards.com.
Last year, gift cards accounted for $118bn in sales globally - 90% of which was offline, at grocery stores and the like.
Mr Wolfe says he thinks sales will shift further to the internet in the next five years, and that GiftCards.com is well placed to take advantage.
And so far, he has refused any outside investment in the business.
"I want to control the outcome of it - I feel like we have something special," he says.


Polish President Andrzej Duda has proposed a compromise over contentious court reforms, as thousands of people protested in the capital Warsaw.

Parliament recently approved a bill to give MPs the power to select members of the body that nominates judges.
Opponents say the move would erode the independence of the judiciary.
In a televised address, Mr Duda proposed that nominations to the body would need more than a simple majority in parliament.
It would mean the governing conservative and populist Law and Justice Party (PiS) would need the support of at least one other party to ensure its nominees are approved.
President Duda said that if the lower house did not approve his change to the bill, he would not sign a separate controversial bill on changes to the supreme court.
That bill would mean that all sitting supreme court judges would lose their posts and the National Council of the Judiciary would appoint new judges.
Mr Duda is a former PiS member who was nominated for president by party leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski.
However, relations between the two have not been good for some time, the BBC's Adam Easton in Warsaw says.
If President Duda had signed the bill as it stood, the Law and Justice party would be able to appoint members to the body that selects judges.
Opposition parties and human rights groups have said the reform erodes the independence of the judiciary because currently the council is selected by professional legal associations.
The government says the reforms are needed because the judiciary is corrupt and serves only the elite.
On Tuesday, several thousand people holding candles gathered outside the presidential palace to protest against the reforms.
Parliament has been cordoned off since Sunday when thousands staged demonstrations in Warsaw and other cities.


The creator of the iconic cartoon sitcom The Simpsons has finally revealed the inspiration behind the show's fictional town of Springfield.

Matt Groening told Smithsonian magazine
 he based the town on Springfield, Oregon, but since it is such a common US place name he knew many would think it was their own Springfield.
The Springfield question is one of the best-kept secrets in TV history.
The Simpsons is the longest-running animation on US TV, on air since 1989.
Characters in the show have often joked about hiding Springfield's real location.
"In anticipation of the success of the show, I thought: 'This will be cool, everyone will think it's their Springfield.' And they do," Mr Groening said.
There are thought to be at least 34 towns or cities called Springfield in the US.
Mr Groening also said he was inspired by the TV show Father Knows Best, which was set in a place called Springfield.
But the Springfield in Oregon is just 100 miles (160km) south of Portland, the city where Mr Groening grew up.
The Simpsons has sometimes given false answers to the question of Springfield's true location, leaving open the possibility that Mr Groening's latest comments are a continuation of the joke.
"Whenever people say it's Springfield, Ohio, or Springfield, Massachusetts, or Springfield, wherever, I always go: 'Yup, that's right,'" Mr Groening said.
In one episode, Marge and Homer Simpson's precocious daughter Lisa points to Springfield on a map, but the audience's view is obscured by Bart Simpson's head.
It appears that the town of Springfield, Oregon, has known of its connection to the sitcom since 2007, when Mr Groening visited before the release of The Simpsons Movie.
"Oh, okay, we knew that," a community relations manager told the Associated Press when she heard about Mr Groening's latest comments.


An unusual sweatshirt logo and "distinctive" tattoo could hold the key to a dead man's identity - after police were unable to establish who he was.

Officers said they have "drawn a blank" since finding the body in woodland off Peartree Avenue, Southampton, on Monday.
The man was wearing a sweatshirt from Zimbabwe, Hampshire Constabulary said.
He also had a tattoo on his upper right arm, drawn in "blue/black" ink, of an eagle's head with its mouth wide open.
The man was 6ft 3in (1.9m) tall, of "proportionate build", aged between 40 and 60, with a full head of greying hair.
His sweatshirt, described by police as grey, sports a badge showing a bird next to the words Mahenye Safari Lodge, Cona-re-zhou, Zimbabwe.
He was also wearing tracksuit bottoms bearing a Monster logo, and a pair of trainers.
It has not been possible to determine the man's ethnicity, and he does not match the description of anyone reported missing, the force said.
Launching an appeal for the public's help, Det Con Mark Blake said: "We are hoping that someone must know who this man is - someone must be missing him.
"He could be from anywhere, we just don't know."


When you're burnt out at work, it's easy to dream of quitting your job and going freelance.

Wouldn't it be great to ditch the micro-managing boss, take on exciting new projects whenever you want, and work the hours that suit you?
Well, thanks to the rise of on-demand talent marketplaces, the so-called "gig economy" is fast becoming a reality.
Cloud-based platforms are making it easier for firms to find the people they need from a global talent pool, and for freelancers to advertise their skills.
For example, Ying Li Looi-Garman, a freelance video producer based in Singapore, is one of millions of workers worldwide sidestepping traditional recruitment agencies.
She picks up around four to 10 jobs a month via 90 Seconds, a cloud-based video production platform with a network of over 5,000 freelancers in 70 countries.
A year after joining, all of Ms Ying's paid work now comes via the platform, where she has a profile page listing her experience and a showreel of her work.
"90 Seconds offers flexibility," she says. "I work from home and I can just accept work when I want."
Another advantage, she says, is that all the communication with the client is via one central hub.
"If there's a new script change or say I've made a video cut, the client gets updated through the platform."
For companies desperate for flexible workers, these platforms are both convenient and cost-effective.
"With millions of experts from all around the world, people can get help with their business within minutes of posting a project," says Matt Barrie, chief executive of Sydney-based Freelancer.com, whose clients include Nasa.
"They can scale up or down as needed. It offers flexibility of budget, space and time, and rates that people can afford, with lower overhead expenses."
Freelancer.com also offers a Local Jobs service which it describes as "Uber for local jobs", allowing companies to find freelancers within a 30-mile (50km) radius, and not just for the typical online work involved in the gig economy, but for location-based tasks, such as deliveries.
It is the easy access to specific skills that employers like, says Alex Abelin, chief executive of New York-based LiquidTalent, an on-demand marketplace for designers and developers.
"Many times, employers don't need full-time support, but rather targeted, objective talent infusion," he says.
"For example, at LiquidTalent, we are working on a six-week intense data project. We have a team of on-site and off-site support to make our data housing and reporting much more secure and visual.
"We don't need to hire this team full-time, but we do need them for six weeks."
Over in Raleigh, North Carolina, Elijah Windsor sits on both sides of the gig economy.
He finds work as a computer programmer through freelance software and engineering marketplace Toptal. But he also uses the same platform to recruit developers for his own tech start-up, Refined Edge Solutions.
Toptal is choosy about who it allows onto its platform - only accepting 3% of applicants on average.
"You can create your own work/life balance, choose your clients, and set your own hours," says Mr Windsor.
"If you only want to work part-time, that's fine, or you could work 80 hours a week if you wanted to.
"A developer I hired through Toptal recently lives in Germany, but he worked US hours so he could spend time with his family during the day."
Mr Windsor also rates the San Francisco-based platform highly for pairing companies with a "matching team" that often includes developers.
"Since they're in the field, they're not just throwing out bait to catch random fish - they know exactly what you're looking for," he says.
This on-demand economy is also leading to the rise of competition-based marketplaces such as Innocentive, where companies can post tough work challenges for innovators to solve in return for prize money.
"Our clients get fresh perspectives and a diverse range of creative solutions for their pressing organisational concerns, all in a very cost-effective way," says Innocentive director Greg Eredics.
"We've had clients solve problems they'd been working on for 15 years in just 60 days with our offering."
One of its clients, Italian power utility Enel, has been using the platform since September, and has found solutions to eight problems across areas from renewable energy to operations.
Enel's chief innovation and sustainability officer, Ernesto Ciorra, says the approach helps the company find the right people at the right time and improves "the speed of the innovation process".
But what are the risks of hiring people on the hoof?
"You might want to validate who the freelancer says they are and what qualifications and experience they have," warns Anne-Marie Malley, UK human capital leader at consultancy firm Deloitte.
"You should also be careful around what data you share because that person is not a full-time employee - they could be working with your competitors the following week.
"You need to be thoughtful as to where and how you share high-risk data."
Such concerns aside, the gig economy is clearly booming and set for rapid growth.
In the UK, the number of self-employed people has risen to nearly five million, approaching the number who work in the public sector. And in the US, around 54 million people are now freelance, roughly a third of all workers.
PeoplePerHour, an online freelance marketplace, forecasts that one in two people in the US and the UK will be freelance by 2020.
And the market for gig economy platforms and related services will be worth almost $63bn (£43bn; €56bn) globally by 2020, forecasts consultancy PwC. In 2014, this global market was valued at $10bn.
"The gig economy will also... see more professionals in sales, marketing, finance and law adopting a gig-economy mentality, not just the usual suspects of software development or event planning," says LiquidTalent's Mr Abelin.
"This trend affects us all and it's just getting started."

The head of the FBI has said the bureau has no evidence that Russia successfully hacked US President-elect Donald Trump's White House campaign.

James Comey said some local Republican campaign systems were hacked, but damage was limited compared to the attack on their Democrat rivals.
Intelligence chiefs blame Moscow for the hacking of Democratic Party emails, aimed at damaging Hillary Clinton.
Russia has described the allegations as a witch-hunt.
Mr Trump accepted a report into the hacking released by intelligence chiefs on Friday but declined to single out Russia as being behind the hacks.
He has accused Democrats of being "careless" for allowing the leak.
Meanwhile CNN quoted unnamed US officials as saying that during a meeting with the intelligence chiefs last month Mr Trump was given documents that included allegations of compromising material about the president-elect held by Russian agents.
The FBI was investigating the accuracy and credibility of the allegations, the network said.
Testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee, Mr Comey said state and local Republican campaigns were broken into, as well as some email domains formerly used by the Republican National Committee (RNC).
But "we do not have any evidence that the Trump campaign or the current RNC systems were hacked," he said.
Meanwhile Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told the committee that the hacking report was based on a combination of human sources, technical data and open-source information.
An unclassified version of the report has been published but Gen Clapper said much of it was classified to protect sensitive sources and methods.
Russian agents are alleged to have sent stolen Democratic emails to WikiLeaks to try to swing the vote for Mr Trump.
Russia has denied any involvement in the hacking and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange says Moscow was not the source for the site's mass leak of emails from the Democratic Party.
According to CNN, the Washington Post and NBC News, citing intelligence sources, agencies had intercepted communications following the election which showed senior Russian government officials celebrated Donald Trump's win over rival Hillary Clinton.


Nicky Deverdics' goal proved enough to secure victory at home to relegation-threatened Halifax and keep Dover in National League play-off contention.

Deverdics drilled in a 20-yard strike after Halifax failed to clear a corner in the eighth minute.
Jordan Burrow almost salvaged a point for the Shaymen late on when he headed against the bar.
Dover leapfrog Tranmere into fourth place, while Halifax drop to 22nd, a point off safety.


Emmanuel Macron has won the French presidential election, defeating his opponent Marine Le Pen.

Mr Macron won by 66.06% to 33.94% to become, at 39-years-old, the country's youngest president.
He said that a new page was being turned in French history.
"I want it to be a page of hope and renewed trust," he said.
Mr Macron's supporters gathered in their thousands to celebrate outside the Louvre museum in central Paris and their new president later joined them.
In his speech to the crowd, he said: "Tonight you won, France won. Everyone told us it was impossible, but they don't know France."
But not everyone was happy with the result. Almost 150 protestors were arrested in Paris after they were accused of throwing missiles at police and damaging property.
Demonstrators were protesting both against Macron and against his defeated rival, Marine Le Pen.
Macron has promised to unite the country and "do everything I can over the next five years to ensure that people no longer have any reason to vote for extremes."

Emmanuel Macron has never tried to be president before.
He used to be a banker, before becoming an economic advisor for the current president Francois Hollande.
He then got the job of economic minister, which is more senior government role, in 2014.
Despite being a minister for the Socialist party, in April 2016, he set up his own political movement called En Marche!. This means 'On the move!' in French.
Many people did not agree with what he was doing and became cross with him.
He ended up resigning from the government in August. He said it was "a new step in [his] battle and to build a project... that isn't compatible with being in government".
During the election campaign, there were certain things Emmanuel Macron promised to achieve if he became president, including:
Losing candidate Marine Le Pen thanked the estimated 11 million people who had voted for her in her speech to supporters.
She also said she had wished Mr Macron success in tackling the "huge challenges" facing him.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump tweeted his congratulations to Mr Macron for the "big win" and said he looked forward to working with him.
UK Prime Minister Theresa May said: "France is one of our closest allies and we look forward to working with the new president."


A scheme to recruit good teachers to work in deprived areas has been dropped, the government has confirmed.

The National Teaching Service was announced by England's then Education Secretary, Nicky Morgan, in 2015.
The plan was for 1,500 outstanding teachers and leaders to be deployed by 2020 "to the schools that need them most", with a pilot in the North West.
But following the pilot "we can confirm that we will not be progressing", said a Department for Education spokesman.
The original plan was to send "the country's best teachers and leaders to underperforming schools that struggle to attract and retain the professionals they need", according to a speech made by Mrs Morgan to the Policy Exchange think-tank in November 2015.
The initiative was part of a government plan "to give every child an excellent education".
"Too many places are lagging behind, meaning young people in these areas are not being given a fair shot," said the government at the time.
NTS staff would work with schools for a period of up to three years in a bid to drive up standards.
An initial pilot was launched to enlist up to 100 teachers and leaders to work in primary and secondary schools in the North West from September 2016.
But according to the Times Educational Supplement, just 54 teachers were recruited after only 116 applied.
The government says the pilot was launched "to test the concept of how a National Teaching Service could work".
"We are pleased with the level of interest in the pilot and the calibre of the successful candidates," said a Department for Education spokesman.
"However, following a review of the outcomes, we can confirm that we will not be progressing with the further rollout of the National Teaching Service
"We recognise that it is vitally important that schools, particularly in challenging areas, can recruit and retain excellent teachers, and we are determined to continue to support them to do this.
"We will use the lessons learnt from the pilot to secure a better understanding of to support schools in the future, and will set out future plans in due course."
On Thursday, Ofsted's annual report highlighted serious problems in recruiting teachers and school leaders, particularly in northern England, where, it said, heads were reporting an "auction" for teachers.
Labour's shadow education secretary, Angela Rayner, said Ofsted's verdict on the government's teacher recruitment record was "damning".
"We now learn that they've are scrapping the much lauded National Teaching Service after just a year," she said.
"Last week, we learnt that the Tories have missed their recruitment target for the fifth year in row.
"And last year, the highest number of teachers left the profession in a decade."
"The chronic teacher shortage continues to threaten standards under the Tories, and they are completely failing to take this crisis seriously."


Footage of a masked man wearing sunglasses and wielding a gun has been released by police after an attempted armed robbery at a jewellers.

The man was filmed by CCTV in Coopers Jewellery in Barnstaple in Devon on Thursday.
Owner David Bruce said he "chased" the suspect from his shop with a baseball bat following the attempted raid.
Devon and Cornwall Police said they believed the would-be robber's "weapon was some kind of blank firing firearm".
Det Insp Praveen Naidoo said: "The offender may well have received injuries as a result of this incident and it is likely that someone in the community knows who is responsible.
"Whilst the coat appears darker in the images, witnesses describe it as a light sandy colour."
Anyone who has found the mask, which Mr Bruce described as a "full latex" one, is asked to contact police.


Fifty pairs of false eyelashes and 30 boxes of fake tan have been stolen from a beauty salon in Belfast.

Police said there were seven burglaries and attempted burglaries at shops on the Ormeau Road over the weekend.
Cash was also taken from a number of the shops.
Det Con Ciara Mullan said: "We believe that approximately two or three males were involved in these burglaries and tools were used to force rear and front doors in the various premises."
Police have asked for anyone with any information to contact them.


A 31-year-old man has been charged with conspiracy to murder following a shooting in Bury St Edmunds.

The victim, a man in his 30s, was shot in the stomach at an address in Forum Court on 4 August, and remains in hospital in a stable condition.
Simon Webber, of Sydenham Close, Bridgwater, Somerset, has been remanded in custody and is due in front of magistrates in Ipswich on Wednesday.
Five other people arrested have been released on bail.
A 58-year-old man and two women, aged 59 and 28, all from the Needham Market area, and a 34-year-old man from Dorchester were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to murder.
A 39-year-old man from Dorchester was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.
Police found a shotgun in a burnt-out car in Rushbrooke Lane shortly after the shooting.


Scotland has voted in favour of the UK staying in the EU by 62% to 38% - with all 32 council areas backing Remain.

But the UK as a whole has voted to Leave - raising the prospect of Scotland being taken out of the EU against its will.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said Scotland had delivered a "strong, unequivocal vote" to remain in the EU.
The result prompted David Cameron to announce he would step down as prime minister by October.
Speaking in Downing Street, he said he would "steady the ship" until then - but would hand over to a new leader in time for the Conservative Party conference.
Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson said he had served the office of prime minister "honourably".
She added: "His decision to remain in post over the short term is the right one, and will help ensure greater stability in the days ahead.
"It is right that he has already spoken to Nicola Sturgeon to ensure the Scottish government is involved in the negotiations that will follow.
"Our two governments need to work together for the benefit of all people in Scotland, and they will. All of us need to take stock of this decision, and put the stability of our country first."
US presidential hopeful Donald Trump, who has arrived in Scotland to visit his Trump Turnberry golf resort, meanwhile said it was a "great thing" that the people of the UK had "taken back their country".
With all the votes declared, the Leave side won by a margin of 52% to 48%.
Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon told a media conference a second independence referendum was "highly likely" after the UK voted to leave the EU.
The SNP manifesto for May's Holyrood elections said the Scottish Parliament should have the right to hold another referendum if there was a "significant and material change" in the circumstances that prevailed in 2014, such as Scotland being taken out of the EU against its will.
At a news conference in Edinburgh, Ms Sturgeon said: "It is, therefore, a statement of the obvious that a second referendum must be on the table, and it is on the table."
Her predecessor as first minister, Alex Salmond, was quick to suggest there should now be a second Scottish independence referendum.
Mr Salmond told the BBC:  "It means that Nicola Sturgeon has to go forward with the manifesto, which as you remember said the Scottish Parliament should have the right to call a second referendum on Scottish independence if there was a material and significant change in the circumstances, like Scotland being dragged out of the European Union against the will of the Scottish people.
"Now that has happened and I'm certain that Nicola will go forward on that manifesto commitment."
Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale described the result as "distressing" but said the priority now was best summed up by the Scottish phrase "keep the heid".
She said: "First and foremost our priority must be to stabilise the economy - to reassure people about their jobs, about their pensions and about the opportunities that are yet to come.
"It's going to be a long drawn out process now."
Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie said he was "angry that we have lost our place in Europe".
He said: "It is bad for our country and the people who live here. It means cutting our ties with our biggest economic market despite the consequences for trade, business, jobs and incomes.
"It means we are turning our back on co-operating with our closest neighbours on security, peace, the environment and workers' rights."
Scottish Green co-convenor Patrick Harvie said Scotland "must keep open every option for protecting ourselves from this threat" and said it was "devastating to see that the deceitful, manipulative and at times downright racist Brexit campaign has succeeded south of the border".
Tom Harris, of Scottish Vote Leave, played down the Remain majority in Scotland, and said more than a million Brexit supporters in Scotland had made a "huge contribution" to the overall result.
He told BBC Scotland's Good Morning Scotland programme: "It's not the case that Scotland voted one way and England voted another. The voice of more than a million Scots cannot be simply be dismissed."
Earlier, Mr Harris predicted there would not be a second independence referendum after the EU result.
The Scotland Stronger In Europe campaign said the scale of the Remain majority in Scotland was "exceptional".
Spokesman John Edward said: "We are proud that every single local authority area in Scotland voted Remain with an overall lead of 24 points over Leave - that clearly stands out as an exceptional result compared to the rest of the UK.
"Scotland even recorded a higher level of support to stay in the European Union than in the 1975 referendum.
"We are pleased to have won well in Scotland, but of course the only result that decides the issue is the UK-wide vote."
Overall, 1,661,191 voters backed Remain in Scotland, with 1,018,322 voting for Leave.
Glasgow voted by 168,335 (67%) to 84,474 (33%) in favour of Remain, although turnout was relatively low.
Edinburgh backed Remain by 187,796 (74%) to 64,498 (26%), but results in England and Wales were much better for Leave.
Moray saw the closest result in Scotland, with Remain finishing just 122 votes ahead of Leave.
But there were big wins for Remain in heavily-populated areas such as Aberdeen, Dundee, North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, Fife and West Lothian.
Another day, another constitutional crisis.
The final results from the EU referendum weren't even declared before there was discussion of what happens next in Scotland.
Scots have been to the polls five times in the span of just over two years. Many may now be wondering if they'll be back again soon.
The overbearing theme in the counting halls was one of tension.
Remain knew they had done well north of the border, but were startled by the strong showing Leave recorded in the early results across England and Wales.
In Edinburgh, for example, Remain scored a whopping win. But the cheers from the gathered few observers were rather muted, with the national result hanging in the balance.
The pattern was repeated across the country - albeit with smaller margins of victory in some places, such as Moray, where less than 200 votes separated the sides.
And in the end, when the Scotland-wide result was announced in Grangemouth, it was the Leave side who were slapping each other on the back and jumping for joy, despite losing the Scottish vote by 62% to 38%.
This result will raise a lot more questions than it answers in Scotland.
Orkney became the first Scottish area to declare its result at about 00:05, with Remain winning 7,189 votes (63%) and Leave on 4,193 (37%). Turnout was 68.4%.
It was followed by Clackmannanshire, which backed Remain by 58% to 42%. A majority of voters in Shetland, the Western Isles and the Scottish Borders also backed Remain.
YouGov had published an on-the-day poll which had Remain on 52% and Leave 48%, while an Ipsos-Mori poll from Wednesday and Thursday put Remain on 54% and Leave on 46% - but the pollsters got the result badly wrong, as they had done in last year's general election.
About 46.5 million people were registered to vote - including four million in Scotland - in what was the third nationwide referendum in UK history.

Snow in parts of Northern Ireland is causing difficult driving conditions, some disruption to train and bus networks, and school closures.

The Met Office issued yellow "be aware" weather warnings for wind and snow.
Newtownhamilton High School, Carnalbanagh Primary School, St Joseph's Primary School, Bessbrook and Cortamlet Primary School are closed.
Transport NI advises motorists to "exercise caution, especially when travelling on untreated roads".
It has salted roads on its scheduled network.
Road temperatures have dropped below freezing with a resultant ice hazard in addition to snow, especially on untreated roads.
The Met Office warning is in place for Counties Antrim, Armagh, Down, Londonderry and Tyrone until midnight.
Snow showers from the north-west spread across the entire province overnight with accumulations greater on high ground, but showers have reduced this morning.
Transport NI had been expecting to deal with 1-3cm of snow at "low levels" and about 3-6cm in higher ground.
In County Armagh, black ice caused difficulties on roads in Lurgan and Portadown, while in County Antrim, the Upper Carneal Road in Larne was closed due to dangerous driving conditions.
Translink says snow is causing disruption to some Ulsterbus services. The following routes are affected:
Some London-bound passengers at Belfast City Airport also faced disruption, as Flybe's 17:35 GMT flight to London City Airport was cancelled on Thursday evening.
The National Trust said Springhill in County Londonderry and the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge in County Antrim were closed on Thursday as a result of the weather.


The success of clean air legislation in western developed countries is evident in the results from a 10-year study by a US space agency satellite.

The Aura mission has been tracking trends in emissions of nitrogen dioxide since its launch in 2004.
It has seen big falls in the pollutant in the US and Europe, while at the same time recording significant increases in some developing nations, such as China.
NO2 is produced in large part as a result of the burning of fossil fuels.
Key sources include the tailpipes of vehicles and the exhaust stacks of coal-fired power stations.
The yellow-brown gas will, in the right weather conditions, promote the production of ground-level ozone, which is a severe respiratory irritant.
Scientists working on the OMI instrument on Aura have analysed the whole period from 2005 to 2014, and have presented their findings here at the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union - the world's largest annual gathering of Earth scientists.
In the US and Europe, which remain big emitters of NO2, they find there has been nonetheless considerable success in constraining the problem.
Levels have fallen 20-50% across North America over the study period, and in Europe by as much as 50%.
Environmental legislation is undoubtedly behind the declines, say the researchers, together with technology improvements that have helped scrub emissions.
In a series of trend maps produced by the OMI team, the reductions are seen in blue.
The reds, on the other hand, denote increases in NO2 emissions. These are most obvious in developing nations.
A good example is China and its northern plain, which has become a major global manufacturing hub during the OMI time series.
"Nitrogen dioxide levels here have increased by 20-50% over the last decade. And the reason for this is that China's economic growth is being fuelled by its cheap and abundant coal," explained Bryan Duncan, an atmospheric scientist with Nasa.
Dig a little deeper into the data, however, and anomalies become apparent.
In China, some of the major cities have actually witnessed improved conditions. In Beijing and Shanghai, and in some of the cities of the Pearl River Delta, including Hong Kong, levels are down by up to 40%.
"This is local and regional governments working together to reduce their pollution," said Dr Duncan, "and a new affluent middle class demanding cleaner air."
Something similar is seen in southern Africa, where the Johannesburg-Pretoria metro area's emissions have bucked the rising trend of more industrial locations on the Highveld, the country's inland plateau.
And in the US, the general trend of success is contradicted in regions such as Texas and western North Dakota, where oil and natural gas exploitation has seen NO2 emissions rise.
"What's causing that increase? One is simply the heavy machinery - the trucks and all sorts of vehicles that are used in oil and natural gas extraction," said Anne Thompson, another Nasa atmospheric scientist.
"The other thing that happens is that not everything that is extracted is wanted and in a region like western North Dakota it [is] maybe the methane that comes up with the petroleum, and if they don't want it - they flare."
The scientists displayed pictures from another satellite, Suomi, which captures night-time lights. It easily picks out from space this practice of burning off unwanted gas.
The Middle East is an interesting case. Post 2005, NO2 increases are recorded in countries like Iraq, presumably because of economic growth picking up after the war years.
Conversely, declines have been seen in Syria of late.  Researchers put this down to the collapse of economic activity and mass emigration as a result of the country's great upheaval.  Corresponding spikes are seen in neighbouring nations, such as Lebanon and Turkey, where many of the displaced people have gone.
Omi is actually a Dutch and Finnish contribution to Aura.
European scientists are already working on its successor - an instrument called Tropomi, or "Super-Omi", which will fly on the EU's forthcoming Sentinel-5 Precursor satellite.
Pieternel Levelt from the Dutch Met Office told BBC News: "This new instrument will go to much higher resolution. That means 7-by-7km, so it's six times better. And it will also be more sensitive. This will allow us to see smaller sources."

People in Scotland diagnosed with the six least survivable cancers have only a 12% chance of living for five years or more, according to new analysis.

The research looked at patients with pancreatic, liver, brain, lung, oesophageal or stomach cancer.
The Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce (LSCT) will tell MSPs later that more research is needed into the diseases.
The Scottish government said it had invested Â£100m in cancer services over the last five years.
Patients with other forms of cancer have a 67% chance on average of living beyond five years, the LSCT found.
The analysis shows the six less survivable cancers cause 54% of all deaths (7,000) from common cancers in Scotland per year.
LSCT - which is made up of Pancreatic Cancer UK, the British Liver Trust, The Brain Tumour Charity, Action Against Heartburn and Core - linked the death rate with a lack of research.
The charities claimed that over the past 12 years the six diseases received just 17% of UK research funding for common cancers, with the remainder dedicated to the 14 more survivable common cancers.
The taskforce is hoping to encourage more research and give patients the same chance of surviving as those with the more survivable cancers, which include prostate, breast and bowel cancer.
Motherwell and Wishaw MSP Clare Adamson, who is supporting the taskforce, said the figures were "disgraceful".
"In the last 40 years, the five-year survival rate has almost doubled for breast cancer and tripled for prostate cancer," she said.
"Yet in the same period, there has been precious little progress for people with these six less survivable cancers."
The LSCT is calling on MSPs, policy-makers, research funders, GPs, nurses and other healthcare professionals to raise awareness of the cancers.
The group want to ensure patients have access to new treatments and clinical trials as well as receiving treatments swiftly.
They have also called for the setting of government-backed targets to improve survival rates and an increase in research funding applications from scientists.
A Scottish government spokeswoman said: "Our 'Beating Cancer: Ambition and Action' strategy recognises the need to reduce the variation in survival rates of different types of cancer as much as possible.
"The strategy is accompanied by Â£100m investment over five years, and serves as a blueprint for the future of cancer services in Scotland.
"We're also supporting a national quality performance indicator programme which aims to drive improvement in the outcomes and survival rates for cancer, including those cancers noted by the Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce."


Littlehampton RNLI is to say goodbye to its Blue Peter lifeboat, almost 50 years after the programme's appeal bought its first boat for the station.

The first Blue Peter 1 began service when the lifeboat station reopened in 1967. It has since been replaced with three others bearing the same name.
The BBC children's programme's appeals went on to fund seven RNLI lifeboats stationed around the country.
The current Blue Peter 1 is due to be retired in May or June, the RNLI said.
The boat may be kept by the charity as part of its relief fleet, or to be used for training purposes, a spokesman said.
The first Blue Peter 1 lifeboat and its later replacements have launched on average 70 times each year, he said.
Littlehampton RNLI station was established in 1884, but closed in 1921 due to a reduction in shipping at the port, and difficulties maintaining crew numbers.
It was re-opened in 1967 with the first Blue Peter 1 - a D-class inshore lifeboat.
Nick White, lifeboat operations manager at Littlehampton RNLI, said: "It is with a tinge of sadness that we say goodbye to Blue Peter 1.
"From my generation onwards as children we all watched Blue Peter; the presenters were our distant friends."
He said the lifeboat was being replaced by a craft with "enhanced performance and additional capability" funded by a private donor.


A war of words has erupted between Scotland's former first minister Alex Salmond and US tycoon Donald Trump.

Mr Salmond decided to speak his mind about the US presidential hopeful after a supreme court decision on a contested wind farm development.
The SNP MP said Mr Trump was a "three-time loser" who was having a "damaging impact" on the Scottish economy.
Mr Trump hit back at Mr Salmond calling him "a has-been and totally irrelevant".
The US businessman's legal challenge to a planned offshore wind farm off the Aberdeenshire coast, close to Mr Trump's Menie golf course, was rejected by the UK's Supreme Court.
This led Mr Salmond to launch an attack on Mr Trump's impact on Scotland.
He accused Mr Trump of "condemning" Turnberry, the Ayrshire golf resort he bought in 2014, to "Open Championship oblivion".
Earlier, the chief executive of the Professional Golfer's Association said Mr Trump's comments on the presidential campaign trail were "not a positive thing for golf", amid speculation the Open Championship will not be hosted at Turnberry in light of his controversial statements.
Mr Trump has attracted even more controversy that usual in his campaign seeking the Republican nomination for the US presidential race.
A petition to have the billionaire barred from entry to the UK gathered hundreds of thousands of signatures after he called for a temporary halt on Muslims being allowed to enter the United States.
SNP MP and MSP Mr Salmond said as he was no longer first minister he was now free to speak his mind on the "damaging impact" of Mr Trump's "interventions" on the Scottish economy.
He said: "By his unacceptable behaviour he has condemned Turnberry, one of the outstanding golf courses on the planet, to Open Championship oblivion.
"There is no way the R&A will go near the Ayrshire course while Trump is in charge. As a result Scotland stands to lose the Â£100m economic return from a Turnberry Open."
Mr Salmond also said Mr Trump had "failed to meet the claims he made for the Menie Estate Golf complex" in Aberdeenshire.
He said the "fine golf course" did not have a permanent club house, "far less the claims of thousands of jobs and billions of investment", and said his legal challenge to an offshore wind farm near the course was "deeply damaging".
A spokesman for the Trump organisation hit back at Mr Salmond, saying: "Does anyone care what this man thinks? He's a has-been and totally irrelevant.
"The fact that he doesn't even know what's going on in his own constituency says it all. We have a permanent clubhouse and the business is flourishing.
"He should go back to doing what he does best - unveiling pompous portraits of himself that pander to his already overinflated ego."


A man has won a 16-year dispute over a laptop which he bought from the Aberdeen branch of PC World.

Richard Durkin claimed the HFC bank ruined his credit rating after he tried to pull out of a credit agreement when he returned the £1,499 computer.
Mr Durkin, 44, took his case to court and initially won damages of £116,000 but that ruling was overturned.
By Clive ColemanLegal correspondent, BBC News
Today's judgment is a significant victory for consumers, but rather a hollow one for Richard Durkin.
The judgment establishes that if you buy goods using a credit agreement, and then validly terminate the contract of sale by rejecting the goods, you can also validly end the credit agreement.
More significantly, it establishes that any lender who wants to blacklist a consumer's credit rating, when they are asserting that they've terminated the credit agreement, owes that consumer a duty of care to ensure that they are genuinely in default of the credit agreement.
Mr Durkin had told HFC bank that he'd ended the credit agreement.
The court found that, in the light of that, HFC were under a duty to make the appropriate enquiries to establish if he had.   They did not do so.
Mr Durkin had originally been awarded £116,000 in damages, but that sum was dramatically reduced on appeal at the Court of Session in Edinburgh.
Sadly for Mr Durkin, the Supreme Court in this type of appeal is unable to reassess the damages in the case, and so he was left with just £8,000.
However, his legacy will perhaps be that banks and others extending credit to purchase goods under what are known as 'debtor, creditor, supplier' agreements will have to be exceptionally careful before informing credit agencies that the customer is in default.
If they get it wrong and are negligent, they can be sued by the customer.
The Supreme Court in London has now allowed his appeal and ruled he should receive £8,000 in damages.
Mr Durkin said the ruling was a victory for the consumer but a blow for him personally.
He had handed over £50 and signed a credit agreement with HFC in 1998, but said he was told by a sales assistant at the store in Aberdeen that the laptop could be returned if it had a problem.
He discovered the laptop did not have an inbuilt modem.
Mr Durkin was eventually paid back the £50 by PC World but HFC said he was still required to make payments under the terms of the credit agreement.
In 2008 Aberdeen Sheriff Court ruled that he was entitled to reject the laptop and cancel the sale and the credit agreement and awarded damages of £116,000.
The decision was overturned later by judges at the Court of Session in Edinburgh after Mr Durkin himself appealed against the size of the damages.
Delivering the Supreme Court conclusion, Lord Hodge ruled: "I would allow the appeal and declare that Mr Durkin was entitled to rescind and validly rescinded the credit agreement by giving notice to HFC in about February 1999.
"Damages resulting from HFC's breach of its duty of care are confined to injury to Mr Durkin's credit in the sum of £8,000.
"I would give the parties an opportunity to agree the date from which interest should run and the rate or rates of interest to be applied."
Lord Hodge said the Supreme Court did not have the power to restore the damages originally awarded to Mr Durkin.
Mr Durkin said: "I am disappointed that the Supreme Court was unable to restore to me the full damages awarded by the sheriff - even though it was clear that they were sympathetic to my position on this.
"This decision is a great victory for all consumers and I am proud to have been the driving force behind it.
By James CookScotland Correspondent, BBC News
Richard Durkin is far from victorious today.
In the kitchen of his modest terraced house in Aberdeen he shook his head repeatedly as he watched the Supreme Court judgment.
This battle has dominated 16 years of his life and the stress it has caused him is clear in his eyes.
Mr Durkin directs his anger at PC World, HFC bank and the justice system.
He says he is "a quarter of a million pounds down," and the award of £8,000 will make little difference to him.
Above all he says he is struggling to understand how the Supreme Court can rule in his favour and yet fail to right the wrongs of his case.
"As a result of the decision, no consumer will have to endure again what I had to put up with - the loss of the ability to buy a family home because of wrongful blacklisting of me."
He added: "Taking a case to any court is a huge stress, but taking it to the highest court in the land with all the risks that go with it was the most stressful thing that anyone could voluntarily put themselves through.
"But sometimes you have to do what is right, and not what is easy."
Mr Durkin said: "I am grateful to my legal team, and to the Law Society of Scotland who funded the court fees which I could not afford.
"But I am most grateful for an end to this matter now, having fought a long and difficult battle which at last is over."
A statement from HSBC - which now owns HFC - said: "We note the court's judgement and are pleased that this matter has finally been resolved."
Lawyers for Which? magazine are assessing the ruling and its possible implications for consumers.


Bolton boosted their League One promotion push with a 2-0 victory at struggling Shrewsbury.

Second-half goals from Mark Beevers and Adam Le Fondre wrapped up a fifth successive win for Phil Parkinson's in-form side.
Bolton defender David Wheater saw a shot deflected over the crossbar, before skipper Darren Pratley tested Shrewsbury goalkeeper Jayson Leutwiler from distance.
The Shrews gradually settled and almost took the lead when Louis Dodds, fed by Tyler Roberts, saw his high shot acrobatically clawed away by Bolton keeper Ben Alnwick.
Joe Riley then drilled in a shot from the edge of the box which was comfortably gathered by Alnwick.
Bolton took the lead in the 51st minute as a long throw from Filipe Morais saw central defender Beevers nip in ahead of Leutwiler to head home from 12 yards.
Alnwick saved from Freddie Ladapo and Roberts either side of Bolton's breakthrough, before the visitors doubled their lead in the 66th minute.
Morais broke down the right and picked out Le Fondre, who controlled the ball and smashed into the roof of the net from close range.
Shaun Whalley fired a late effort over the bar for Shrewsbury, who are just a point outside the relegation zone.
