The White Company's Clayton Table Lamp, currently priced at £110, has been popular for its minimalist design.
The upmarket home brand advertises the lamp as a versatile piece made from natural linen, ideal for bedside tables, consoles and sideboards.
B&M claims to offer a knockoff of the sought-after lamp.
The discount chain shared a video on social media promoting its own white lamp, with on-screen text that reads, "White Company who?" and "£20 base & shade".
The post drew comments from shoppers tempted by the bargains displayed in the video.
One user wrote: "I've got to stop looking at these posts, too much temptation."
Meanwhile, B&M shoppers can buy a three-person tent for just a fraction of the cost of the North Face equivalent.
B&M is selling the Outdoor Adventure 2-3 Person Camping Tent for £18.
North Face's Stormbreak 2-Person Tent is currently available for a total of £225.
Offering a similar capacity, the more expensive model is described as water-resistant, breathable and lightweight.
B&M launches their children's outdoor range which is perfect for summer - there's a £2 bargain that'll easily keep the kids entertained

The Louise chair, available in cream and green, measures 58cm wide, 72cm high and 68cm deep, and supports up to around 100kg.
Meanwhile, a garden gadget is available for just £1 at B&M.
The Modern Solar Table Lamp has been further reduced to £1, down from £1.50.
The lamp is 21cm tall and has a rechargeable battery, making it an affordable way to light up an outdoor space on summer nights.

Harry and Meghan considered changing surname to Spencer

However, this plan was apparently shelved after the UK passports for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet were issued almost six months after the initial applications. The passport application was apparantly delayed (Image: Dominic Lipinski/PA) A source claimed that the duke and duchess feared that UK officials were delaying the process because of the applications included HRH titles (His/Her Royal Highness) for both children. According to The Guardian, a source close to the Sussexes said: 'There was clear reluctance to issue passports for the kids." However, after three months without receiving the documents because of "technical issues," it is understood that Harry and Meghan reapplied using the 24-hour passport service, only for their meeting to be cancelled because of a "systems failure". The source claimed: 'The king hadn't wanted Archie and Lili to carry the titles, most of all the HRH, and the British passports, once created, would be the first and perhaps the only legal proof of their names'. They added: "Harry was at a point where British passports for his children with their updated Sussex surnames (since the death of Queen Elizabeth II) were being blocked with a string of excuses over the course of five months. 'Out of sheer exasperation he went to his uncle to effectively say: 'My family are supposed to have the same name and they're stopping that from happening because the kids are legally HRH, so if push comes to shove, if this blows up and they won't let the kids be called Sussex, then can we use Spencer as a surname?'' It is understood that Prince Harry wants his children to have the HRH titles so that they can decide for themselves in the future if they want to be working royals.

The application time starts when the Passport Office receives an applicant's documents.

Would a £15bn investment in public transport ‘level up' the red-wall areas?

Would a £15bn investment in public transport ‘level up' the red-wall areas?

The chancellor, Rachel Reeves, has announced a £15bn investment in public transport projects in the English regions. Albeit her commitment to restore the pensioners' winter fuel payment (in whole or part is not known) has grabbed much of the attention, these plans for enhanced light rail, bus and tram links will no doubt make an impact. She said: 'We know the potential that exists in all of our towns and cities … I can tell you today that we will be making the biggest ever investment by a British government in transport links within our city regions, and their surrounding towns; £15.6bn in transport funding settlements, to be delivered by our regional mayors – more than doubling real-terms spending on city-region connectivity.' But it is not quite what it seems to be. Is this new money? Not exactly. Much of it is effectively a reannouncement of the schemes unveiled by Rishi Sunak at the Conservative Party conference in October 2023. That was when he announced, to no one's surprise but still widespread disappointment, that the HS2 high speed rail link between Birmingham, Manchester and beyond was being cancelled, but the funds would be redistributed to a wide variety of smaller transport schemes (some of which, embarrassingly, were to repair roads in the South). At that time, the figure of £13.8bn was allocated to the 'City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements 2' – ie public transport improvements controlled by the various elected mayors in Greater Manchester, Teeside, West Yorkshire and so on. Reeves says that these were never properly funded by the previous government, and she put them on hold when she came to power last year. Now they have been defrosted, topped up and presented as Labour achievements. They may turn out to be, but it will take years for them to come to fruition – as with earlier announcements focused on the South, such as the Heathrow expansion. And, just for the record, there's no prospect of the HS2 Northern extension, nor the potentially revolutionary (for growth) Northern Powerhouse east-west fast rail link between Liverpool and Hull via Manchester and Leeds ('HS3'). So, is it good for growth? In principle, yes, but building new tramways, say, doesn't necessarily leverage commensurate private investment or create new jobs. One of the more consequential of Reeves's announcements was that she's reviewing the criteria the Treasury uses to approve large-scale infrastructure projects, contained in the so-called Green Book. She wants civil servants to recognise the benefits of investment as well as the cost. This is fine in principle, provided the government's economists are not pushed into politically useful wishful thinking about regeneration projects that turn into white elephants. History is full of such prestigious (but in the end futile) dreams. As with the 'raid on pensions' – where funds are to be directed to invest in certain UK assets – the net effect of any misallocation of resources would be to reduce productivity rather than boost it. Is it good for Labour? Politically, the point is that it shows Labour cares about what used to be called 'levelling up' in 'left behind' areas, especially in Labour's red-wall areas previously taken by Boris Johnson and now vulnerable to challenge from Nigel Farage and Reform UK. The recent local elections showed just how deep and widespread the discontent can be. (Lisa Nandy, cabinet minister and MP for Wigan, has been warning that social pressures are so intense it could mean northern England could 'go up in flames'). Labour MPs representing marginal seats in the North West and the Midlands will thus have at least something to show for their efforts – or at least the prospect of improvement. However, it will be some time before any tangible improvements will be felt. And the irony? If Labour loses the next election, all the dividends of its investment in transport, housing and green power will be enjoyed by the Conservatives or, more remotely, Reform UK.
