The Washingtonia Robusta is set to "transform your garden into a tropical paradise", as this striking plant is celebrated for its towering height (up to 4 feet) and massive fan-shaped leaves that sway gracefully in the breeze.
This palm tree, which will transform your patio or garden into a tropical haven, would normally cost £32.98, but thanks to this Wowcher deal, it is currently available for £19.99.
Sure to become a stunning focal point of your outdoor area, this Skyduster palm reaches 3-4ft, making it the perfect addition for gardens, patios, or decks. Touted as hardy and resilient, this palm tree thrives in UK climates, even as temperatures drop to -8°C, making it ideal for sunny, well-drained spots all year round.
Offering a vibrant, exotic touch, whether indoors or outdoors, this palm tree originated in Mexico and has become famed as the Hollywood palm in California. It adds an LA vibe to your outdoor area, regardless of where you live.

Preferring sunnier spaces and set to thrive in fast-draining soil, this palm tree will transport you and your garden to the sun-drenched landscape of South America, without costing a fortune.
That said, the best time to plant this palm to be rewarded with the results of its tropical look is during the springtime. But that shouldn't stop you planting in the summer months, as it's recommended to pop this gem in the ground when there's no risk of frost.

Mexico exports 39% less crude oil in June, lowest level in decades
MEXICO CITY, July 29 (Reuters) - Mexican state company Pemex exported 39% less crude oil year-over-year in June, reaching the lowest level in decades, official data showed, as processing at local refineries and fuel production increased significantly. It exported 458,103 barrels per day (bpd) in June, compared to 753,539 bpd in the same month a year earlier, company data updated late on Monday showed. This was the lowest level since records started in 1990. In May, Pemex's international trading arm, PMI, forecast that the company would export less this year because more would be sent to local refineries, including to its new Olmeca refinery in the port of Dos Bocas. Pemex gave no explanation for the decline. However, in its quarterly earnings report on Monday it said it imported less gasoline and diesel because more was being refined locally. In June, it imported 475,047 bpd of refined products, a 38% year-over-year decrease. Pemex, which owes about $120 billion to both investors and suppliers, has also struggled with a sharp decline in production. Its seven local refineries processed 1.12 million bpd, helped by the new Olmeca refinery, which took in 191,585 bpd. In recent years, the Mexican government has sought to achieve what it calls "energy sovereignty" by drastically reducing exports of crude oil and refining it locally. Pemex executives reiterated to investors after the quarterly earnings report that the company was working towards achieving its production goal of 1.8 million bpd. Mexico is still far from reaching this goal. Production of crude oil and condensate has been declining, hovering around 1.6 million bpd. The government and Pemex executives have said that production will rebound with the help of partnerships with private companies, but have not shared details.

From tablets to AirPods to Macbooks, there is a bargain available for everyone who is happy to use an older, refurbished piece of tech. All of these devices have been treated by experts, so shoppers should only notice some cosmetic wear on the device as it has had a previous owner. Apart from this, they should operate just like they did when they first came out of the box. For students who are looking for a cheap device to use during classes and to store their notes, Wowcher currently has a cracking deal on a Chromebook. Originally priced at £99, savvy shoppers can now grab a Lenovo Chromebook 11.6" 100e Laptop for only £44.99. Described as being perfect for students, professionals and anyone on the move, this 'high performance' Lenovo Chromebook features an efficient MediaTek processor, a crisp HD display and a variety of robust, durable features, reports the Liverpool Echo. As the device is run by Chrome OS, shoppers need to be aware that the keyboard features a slightly different layout than Windows and Apple laptops, which could take a little while to get used to. Additionally, this model was first launched in 2018, so shoppers shouldn't expect crazy fast speeds if trying to multitask. One of the appealing features of this laptop is that it is equipped with 360 degree flexibility. This means users can fold the screen to switch between using the device as a laptop or a tablet. This also means that while in tablet mode, shoppers can use the base of the device as a stand for a more comfortable experience.

The Lenovo Chromebook has been refurbished by Renew Electronics, which has received a variety of reviews from previous customers on Trustpilot. One happy shopper said: "Can't really fault them.. ordered a 'good' Apple Watch Series 4, arrived a few days later than it advised but I think that was a Royal Mail issue, customer service good and helpful." With another five-star reviewer adding: "Order arrived promptly. The packaging was excellent and the laptop was better than I expected." However, one shopper had an issue with the delivery, writing: "Computer fine. Delivery awful. Waited in on arrival when notified. Never appeared. Computer was sent to Airdrie instead of Coatbridge. Once again never arrived when notified. Took 8 days to get it." While another shopper noted: "I did have a slight problem with start up, however it was a problem of my making. I emailed the company but never received any communication back, which was rather disappointing. Got the problem sorted myself." Despite this, another pleased customer wrote: "Bought a cheap Chromebook from these guys … and for the price I paid it's amazing. Doesn't look like a refurb, runs well, and everything I needed was in the box. Great buy." While a sixth person was happy with the customer service, writing: "It was easy, there was a small issue with a charger and it was replaced right away, the replacement arrived within 3 days."

Donald Trump in Scotland: Why Scotch whisky industry speaks for us all on tariffs

When Donald Trump visited the UK in 2018, he criticised the then Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit plan and said Boris Johnson would make a 'great Prime Minister'. Yesterday, however, the US President managed to get through a lengthy press conference without sparking a diplomatic incident or seriously undermining Keir Starmer. Even when asked about Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, whose party is currently ahead in national polls, Trump was polite. 'I like this man [Starmer] a lot, and I like Nigel,' he said. He also largely dodged a question about Scottish independence, and instead spoke about his love for Scotland, saying it would benefit from 'a lot' of the trade between the US and UK. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Of course, one of the most important Scottish goods that we export to the US is whisky. Trump appears to be open to negotiations over an exemption for Scotland's national drink from the UK's blanket 10 per cent tariff and, if genuine about his desire to see this country 'thrive', he should be. Donald Trump plays a round of golf at the Trump Turnberry course (Picture: Christopher Furlong) | Getty Images 'Zero-for-zero trade' In a joint statement, the Scotch Whisky Association and the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States welcomed his conciliatory tone, but added that they stood 'shoulder to shoulder on the issue of tariffs' and wanted 'a permanent return to zero-for-zero trade which has driven the success of our industries'. It is a message that the majority of industries on both sides of the Atlantic would echo. Tariffs are bad for business, with relatively free trade one reason why the West became wealthy after the Second World War while the communist bloc stagnated behind its walls and curtains, both real and metaphorically iron. As a significant barrier to trade, Trump's tariffs are effectively an attempt to extend his Mexican border wall right round the US, closing it off from the rest of the world. And we will all pay a price. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad
