 Observer | Lawson is engulfed by the Sands of time
Dominic Lawson isn't your average hack (doomed to endure an average hacking).
No sooner was Dominic out than his successor, Sarah Sands, deputy editor of the daily, was in - and walking her new editorial floor.
They seem to have spent time getting Lawson moving that way (though there's no doubt that he did move, and that his team's results were deemed promising).

Her father is Dominic Lawson, a professed atheist who was then the editor of The Spectator, a highly-respected weekly opinion journal (it was England's 1995 Magazine of the Year—Lawson has since become editor of The Sunday Telegraph).
Lawson's story caused a great deal of comment, and many letters, some of which were printed in The Spectator.
In his account of her birth, Dominic Lawson wrote of seeing for the first time her extra fontanel, enlarged tongue, and asiatic eyes—the "stigmata of Down's syndrome." Lawson's description brings to mind a true story, worth mentioning here, about markings of a different kind.

LAWSON: What’s important, I think, is accuracy and reliability, and it’s possible as it were to have a certain lack of impartiality but still to be accurate and reliable and I don’t think really one can have bitter complaint against that.

 Sibling loyalty: Nigella bites back at 'Telegraph'
Although representatives for Ms Lawson were at pains to stress yesterday that a "personal commitment" had led to her withdrawal, almost everyone else assumed it was because her brother Dominic Lawson stepped down last week as editor of The Sunday Telegraph, without advance warning and after 10 years at the helm.
Ms Lawson has already showed her backing to her older brother by turning up to prepare the smoked salmon bagels, served alongside the champagne, at the "farewell party" thrown by Lawson and his wife, Rosa Monckton, at their Chelsea home after his abrupt dismissal.
Like her father and brother, Ms Lawson began her career as a journalist and was once restaurant critic for The Spectator, which the Telegraph group owns and which both her father and brother also edited at different times.

Lawson’s Telegraph then published a hatchet job labelling Gilligan an “insecure, arrogant, overindulgent and controlling Humpty Dumpty-like figure”.
