Central and southern england, strong gusty winds towards the North Sea Coast but towards the North And West turning largely dry, Clear Skies and locally quite a chilly start to the Day Tomorrow for some out towards the North And West. Underneath the Cloud And Rain of course it is mild and this is the position of the low pressure heading through tuesday.

Job for controversial billionaire elon musk. Here s ritika gupta with the details. The main highlight of donald trump s address was a push to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% for companies that make their products here in the us. This would be a big reduction from the current rate of 21%. A key policy victory from trump s own 2017 tax law set to expire in 2025. Now, while a 15% corporate rate would be a big win for large us companies, it would also contribute to rising deficits. It means big companies would end up paying far lower rates than smaller, privately held businesses, where rates can be as high as 37%.

We need to do it. Cant go on the way we are now. And elon, because hes not very busy, has agreed to head that task force. This comes as both Trump And Harris are ramping up their efforts to court Swing State voters as well as Business Exe
Shes urged the west not to recognise what will be putins fifth term as president. Our russia editor, steve rosenberg, is in moscow with more. Russias democracy is the best in the world, the kremlin says. And at Polling Station 38 in moscow, we found a choice of candidates and plenty of voters. Democracy in action, right . Not quite. Realistically, only one man can win this. Vladimir putin the man whos been on russias political stage for the last quarter of a century. Vladimir putin faces no serious challenger. His fiercest rivals are in exile or in prison. Not that this woman, whose son is fighting in ukraine, wants any change at the top. Of course i voted for putin, she says. I trust him. But not everyone who came out today was actually voting. This, one of a string of attacks on Polling Stations across russia. They are unprecedented. After chaotic scenes here. An arsonist is detained. And green ink poured into a ballot box. The authorities called the attackers scum. Some voters were
