McDonald's confirms change to McChicken Sandwich
McDonald's has confirmed a change to the fast food giant's "classic" McChicken Sandwich. The iconic burger, a staple on UK McDonald's menus since the 90s, features crispy chicken with lettuce and a special "sandwich sauce", all nestled in a soft sesame seed-topped bun.
And for one day only, McDonald's is to tweak its McChicken Sandwich offering. On Monday, August 11, fans can snap up the sandwich for £1.39, which could mean a saving of as much as £3, depending on local restaurant pricing.
A spokesperson for McDonald's explained: "This McDonald's classic is available both in restaurant and on McDelivery via the McDonald's App", further noting that diners can "get familiar with the Deal Drop platform" and will be prompted to check out deals through the app or via email.
The £1.39 McChicken Sandwich can be claimed in the "offers" section of the McDonald's app, and is valid from 00.01am to 04.59am, and from 11am to 11.59pm, on Monday August 11 for those aged 18 and over. McDonald's notes that this deal is "one-time use during the promo period" and only at participating outlets.
The offer is also "subject to availability and restaurant opening times". McDonald's points out that promotional offers are not automatically included in your order and must be selected through the offers section of the McDonald's app. When placing an order at a kiosk, counter or drive-thru, you're advised to "use the 4-digit offer code or QR code (where applicable) ... if the offer showing in your McDonald's (UK) app account provides that functionality".

Toyota warns of £7.1bn hit from Trump tariffs as it cuts profit forecast
Toyota has warned it faces a 1.4tn yen (£7.1bn) hit from Donald Trump's trade tariffs, as the Japanese company reported a drop in net profit and cut its guidance for next year. The biggest carmaker in the world said it expected to make an operating profit of 3.2tn yen in its financial year to March 2026, down 16% on previous guidance of 3.8tn yen. The anticipated annual hit from US tariffs includes the impact of the levies on car imports, higher material prices and a stronger yen. The figures were reported as the latest wave of country-specific tariffs came into force, with dozens of countries facing higher taxes on their exports to the US. This includes Japan, whose baseline rate rose from 10% to 15% under the terms of a framework agreed between Tokyo and Washington last month. Under the deal, Japanese automotive exports to the US are to face a 15% tariff, down from previous sector-specific levies that added up to 27.5%. The timeframe for when the change comes into effect has yet to be announced. Toyota's operating profit fell by almost 11% to 1.17tn yen in the three months to the end of June compared with the same period last year. Its figures came a day after the rival Japanese carmaker Honda reported a 50% drop in profit in the same quarter, to 244bn yen. That was mainly because of a 124bn-yen hit from US tariffs, the company said. The global car industry has been one of the hardest hit by Trump's trade wars. The sector accounts for 8% of jobs in Japan, with vehicles and automotive parts making up more than a quarter of all the countries exports to the US. As part of last month's bilateral deal, Trump said Japan would invest $550bn (£410bn) in the US. The president also claimed that Japan would open its market to US products such as cars, trucks, rice and certain agricultural products. Despite the trade turmoil, Toyota reported record sales in the first half of the year, up 5.5% to 5.1m vehicles, supported by demand for hybrid cars. Shares in the company, however, have dropped by more than 10% this year over tariff uncertainty.
