Paul Doyle has changed his pleas to guilty on all 31 charges relating to the Liverpool parade crash in May, which include dangerous driving and affray. 

Doyle, 54, also admitted nine counts of causing grievous bodily harm (GBH) with intent, 17 counts of attempting to cause GBH and three counts of wounding with intent.

Doyle had previously pleaded not guilty.

Judge Andrew Menary KC has set a two-day sentencing date from December 15.

He remanded Doyle in custody, telling him he faces a "custodial sentence of some length" and that he should prepare himself for that "inevitable outcome".

More than 130 people reported injuries after a Ford Galaxy Titanium collided with crowds on Water Street just after 6pm on May 26.

The charges relate to 29 victims, aged between six months and 77 years old.
