Donald Trump denies fresh allegations of sexual misconduct



Donald Trump has denied allegations from a number of women that he sexually assaulted them, calling it a 'total fabrication'

Speaking at a rally in Florida, the Republican Presidential candidate said he was the victim of a politically motivated attack.

Trump's lawyers have called on the New York Times, which published accusations from two women who say they were molested by Trump, to retract the story.

Other women have since come forward with similar accounts of alleged inappropriate behavior by the New York tycoon.

These latest revelations follow the leak of an audio recording in which Donald Trump boasted about groping women.

UNILEVER: MARMITE ROW 'RESOLVED'

A row which led to some of Britain's most famous brands running low at supermarket Tesco has been resolved, according to consumer goods giant Unilever.

The two firms had been arguing over wholesale prices with Unilever claiming its costs were increasing as the British pound slumped after the UK's Brexit vote.

That caused brands like Marmite, Ben & Jerry's ice cream and Hellmann's mayonnaise to disappear from Tesco's online store.
