On this day 40 years ago: Local Hero was released in UK cinemas. Featuring a host of well-kent Scottish actors and Hollywood legend Burt Lancaster, it's something of a cult classic. Have you seen it? (Psst... watch it on Amazon Prime the noo for 99p)

Noticed a plane making an early right turn out of Glasgow airport just a minute ago and that’s likely due to the large cumulonimbus cloud ahead. CBs as we call them, can cause very uncomfortable turbulence and pilots try and avoid them when they can.

Prime Minister Liz Truss says "we get it and we have listened" and "the abolition of the 45pc rate had become a distraction from our mission to get Britain moving" – as the Government scraps the plan to cut the 45p top rate of tax
