♈ ARIES March 21 to April 20 Try to sew up family agreements in the morning, as Pluto’s influence may try to push people apart – but your love is stronger. Later in the day a moon of pure creative pleasure shows you an activity or interest that clicks instantly – and fits your personal skill set perfectly. Love is all around, so look again at "P". ♉ TAURUS April 21 to May 21 Perhaps you are trying to talk yourself out of taking a big step, signing up for something new. And this keeps you stuck. Break free by trusting your own judgment and ability to make things work. The rest can follow. In love terms, beware of too much, too soon. Pace passion to enjoy the experience, together. ♊ GEMINI May 22 to June 21 Gather together all the information you need to make a love, or work, case for yourself. Then share it, in positive ways. Two sides that seem so far apart can find many ways to be close again. Your learning zone is lit up until … [Read more...] about Horoscope today, Wednesday February 24: Daily guide to what your star sign has in store for your zodiac dates

Coronavirus: Durex enjoys ‘double-digit’ revenue growth in Reckitt Benckiser sales boom
The maker of top cleaning brands including Dettol and Cillit Bang, Reckitt Benckiser (RB), has reported a recovery in condom sales thanks to relaxed coronavirus restrictions. The FTSE 100 company, which has been among the few winners in the COVID-19 crisis to date thanks to its household hygiene and healthcare products, reported a 9.5% lift in net revenue to £3.5bn during its third quarter. RB said that was mainly driven by continued strong demand for disinfectants - with sales of Dettol-branded sprays, wipes and liquid up more than 50% on the same July-September period last year. Like-for-like sales were almost 20% higher in the company's hygiene business and 12.6% up in its health division, which includes Durex condoms and Mucinex cold medicine. RB had pointed to a sharp drop in demand for condoms during the spring virus lockdowns across Europe.

Met Police chief Cressida Dick ‘absolutely outraged’ over hit show Line of Duty
Metropolitan Police chief Cressida Dick has said she was "outraged" by BBC drama Line of Duty despite the programme leading to an increase in applications to the force. Ms Dick said she was unimpressed with the portrayal of corruption in the hit police show. "I was absolutely outraged by the level of casual and extreme corruption that was being portrayed as the way the police is in 2018," she said. "It's so far from that. The standards and professionalism are so high." Line of Duty follows an anti-corruption police unit, whose aim is to uncover corrupt officers that have links to organised crime groups. Advertisement The show has been a ratings hit, picking up nominations at the BAFTAs and National Television Awards. Ms Dick said she had no idea of the popularity of the show until she met one its lead actors, Vicky McClure, at an event.

Man ordered to pay ex-wife £5,000 for years of housework and childcare in landmark Chinese court ruling
A MAN has been ordered to pay his ex-wife thousands of pounds for the years of housework and childcare she did during their marriage in a landmark ruling. The Beijing divorce court decision - believed to be the first of its kind - has sparked a heated debate in China , as the man has been told he must pay his former spouse 50,000 yuan (£5,460) for five years of unpaid labour. It comes after a new civil code came into force in the country that seeks to better protect the rights of individuals. The legislation allows people to appeal for compensation from their partners in a divorce if they have shouldered more responsibilities - including housework. According to court records, the man, listed as Mr Chen, filed for divorce last year from his wife, listed as Ms Wang, after they married in 2015. She was reluctant at first, but later requested financial compensation and division of property, on that grounds that her ex had not taken on any housework or childcare … [Read more...] about Man ordered to pay ex-wife £5,000 for years of housework and childcare in landmark Chinese court ruling
The latest unemployment figures should send a chill down Chancellor Rishi Sunak’s spine
Don't max tax THE new unemployment figures should send a chill down Rishi Sunak’s spine. His upcoming Budget could so easily make matters worse. The Chancellor is focused on jobs, and rightly so. But almost every day brings a new leak of a worrying Treasury plan to raise this tax or that. Our views on the madness of hammering working people with extra fuel duty are well known. But hiking corporation tax from the low levels which helped the Tories conjure a job-creation miracle in the last recession is similarly crazy. Unemployment is at a five-year high . Once the furlough ends, the dole queue is likely to lengthen dramatically. Mr Sunak must learn from history. In the decades after World War Two, the US and West Germany encouraged the free market with lower taxes and far less state intervention. Britain maintained high taxes and a big state controlling vast swathes of the economy. America prospered. West Germany rose from its ruins to become … [Read more...] about The latest unemployment figures should send a chill down Chancellor Rishi Sunak’s spine
