All this damage has to be paid for and we will all have to foot the bill

Hello a real Newbie here, but as I work for a major insurance company felt I had to comment.

You will be covered, but you must report all damage to the Police within 7 days. This does not mean that you have to contact your Insurance Company within those 7 days.

You will need to look at your policy docs or contact your Insurance Company to see if you have a postcode rated policy. If you have, then I'm afraid you could well be seeing a raise next year or even a decline for both household and car insurance :(
