Inheritance Tax is the most hated of all taxes – should it be overhauled?

It's official: IHT is the country's most hated tax. That's according to the Office of Tax Simplification, who have been looking into the quirks of the system at the request of the Chancellor.

Elsewhere, we update on what's going on at Deutsche Bank as thousands of jobs across the globe are axed.

And on the topic of green, we have details of the first all-electric Mini – how much will it cost, what is its range and most importantly... is it any good?
