The Tories are proposing a 'maximum extraction strategy' for ketchup and sauce bottles. New legislation will require sauce bottles to have a wide neck so that you can at least get a knife in, if not a spoon.


Britons are estimated to waste 40 tonnes of sauce a day because extracting the last bit is virtually impossible.

With the deadline for Russia to finish the war in Ukraine rapidly whizzing past, Trump has doubled down on the Russian President. He has ordered that tariffs (long spelling for import taxes) to be applied 'doubly, bigly and nowly' against non-existent Russian imports into the United States, adding to the huge hike in tariffs set against India for oil sold by India to Russia, presumably as long the oil is sold via the United States. Which it isn't, but hey-ho.


'We'll increase tariffs to one thousand per cent against anyone who says I don't understand how tariffs work,' quoted a spokesperson for the President.
