‘More to do' on US steel tariffs than Trump and PM can resolve, minister signals
The Prime Minister will attempt to hammer out a deal on steel import levies when he meets the US president at Turnberry, Mr Trump's Ayrshire golf course. Sir Keir and Scotland's First Minister John Swinney also plan to urge the US president to apply pressure on Israel to allow more humanitarian aid into Gaza, where the population is facing starvation. When the UK and US signed a trade deal in June, it reduced tariffs on car and aerospace imports to the US. But agreement on a similar arrangement for Britain's steel imports was not reached, leaving tariffs on steel at 25%. American concerns over steel products made elsewhere in the world, then finished in the UK, are said to be among the sticking points. Sir Keir is expected to spend most of the day with President Trump on Monday, when he will have a chance to press the president on a steel deal. But Business Secretary Mr Reynolds suggested it may take more than a meeting between the two leaders to resolve the matter, telling BBC Breakfast: 'We were very happy to announce the breakthrough that we had a few months ago in relation to sectors like automotive, aerospace, which are really important to the UK economy. 'But we always said it was job saved, but it wasn't job done. There's more to do. 'The negotiations have been going on on a daily basis since then. There's a few issues to push a little bit further today. 'We won't perhaps have anything to announce a resolution of those talks, but there's some sectors that we still need to resolve, particularly around steel and aluminium, and there's the wider conversation about what the US calls its reciprocal tariffs.' It comes after Mr Trump announced he had agreed 'the biggest deal ever made' between the US and the European Union after meeting Ursula von der Leyen for high-stakes talks at Turnberry on Sunday. After a day playing golf, the US leader met the president of the EU Commission to discuss the broad terms of an agreement that will subject the bloc to 15% tariffs on most of its goods entering America. This is lower than a 30% levy previously threatened by the US president. Sir Keir is also likely to use his time with Mr Trump to raise the starvation faced by the population of Gaza. The Prime Minister has condemned Israel for restricting the flow of aid into the territory, alongside the leaders of France and Germany. The UK will take part in efforts led by Jordan to airdrop aid into Gaza, Sir Keir said over the weekend. Elsewhere, he is facing pressure from more than 220 MPs to immediately recognise the state of Palestine, something which French president Emmanuel Macron has promised to do. The US is the country 'with the leverage' to make a difference in the conflict in Gaza, the Business Secretary suggested. Mr Reynolds told BBC Breakfast that Gaza would 'of course' be on the agenda for the meeting of the two leaders, adding: 'The intolerable scenes that we're seeing, the world is seeing, are the backdrop to that. 'And of course, the US has itself secured on two occasions ceasefires in the conflict, so they have been actively engaged in it, working with Egypt, the Qataris, and other key partners in the region.' Mr Swinney also promised to raise Gaza with Mr Trump, as it was 'causing deep unease and concern and heartbreak within Scotland'.

Berlin brand Saint Sass secures investment to fuel US expansion
Saint Sass, a Gen Z-centric Berlin fashion brand, has secured an investment from Swiss firm Infinitas Capital and German investor Bronk Venture Capital. The funding – the value of which was not disclosed – will be used to accelerate the company's international growth, particularly in the US, which has emerged as a key market for Saint Sass. In a release, the brand, which reported 'extraordinarily fast traction across Europe and the US' since its founding in 2021, said it intends to focus on e-commerce as it moves into its next phase of growth. High-end retail is also on the agenda, with 'selective placements in luxury environments' planned for the long-term. The investment, structured as both a primary and secondary, will also aid in Saint Sass' product expansion. The brand revealed that it is preparing to launch a broader fashion lingerie and lifestyle collection of bras, slips, sleepwear and swimwear, reaching 'every part of a woman's daily life'. In a statement, Larissa Schmid, who co-founded Saint Sass alongside Vivien Wysocki, said: 'Too many investors across DACH do not think outside those Continental markets, setting our new partners apart. They also understand that people follow people, not products. That underpins our vision. We remain true to who we are; and now we have the capital and conviction behind us to go global.' Schmid added that with the US serving as a key market, 'we are doubling down on bold design, sharp storytelling and cultural instinct'. She continued: 'As we grow, we will keep doing what has made Saint Sass resonate: creating products and a brand that stands for confidence and self-determination.' Founder of Infinitas Capital, Robin Lauber, stated that the firm was proud to partner with Saint Sass to 'support their vision to further drive expansion outside Germany'. He added: 'It is a sharp, modern label with the kind of relevance that international markets are hungry for. We are here to help scale it, according to the principles that continue to serve the business well.'
