Steve Tomlin, who runs a Renault dealership in Britain, says sales of the Zoe small electric car have shot up this year, a turnaround he partly puts down to a fading of “range anxiety”, the fear of running out of power mid-journey. The revamped model, which has accounted for a third of Tomlin’s sales for a couple of months this year, has a range of 400 km (249-mile). By contrast the previous model, which drew much lower sales, offered 300 km when fully charged. “Range anxiety has gone away and once you explain how easy it is to live day…

Oil prices fell 4% on Monday on worries that widening coronavirus lockdowns in Europe would weaken fuel demand and amid concerns about turbulence over this week’s U.S. presidential election.

Countries across Europe have reimposed lockdown measures to try to slow COVID-19 infection rates that have accelerated in the past month. Global oil…

Religious groups in England have strongly criticised the new lockdown rule banning communal worship. England’s four-week lockdown will see most religious services banned. Funerals will still be allowed, with a maximum of 30 attending. The Catholic Church described the ban as a cause of “anguish” and demanded the government gives its reasons for stopping services. The Muslim Council of Britain called for an urgent review of restrictions. The Catholic Church Bishops’ Conference said communal worship had helped many during the pandemic. Cardinal Vincent Nichols and Archbishop Malcolm McMahon, president and vice president of the association, also stressed that churches had…

POGBA FAILS TO TAKE HIS CHANCE – AGAIN Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer gave Paul Pogba another chance to stake his claim for a regular starting place in his midfield but was let down by yet another poor display from the Frenchman. After last week’s goalless draw with Chelsea, in which Pogba started on the bench, there were calls for the United boss to find a way to get him back in the team. Pogba started in midweek against Leipzig in the 5-0 Champions League win but delivered a sub-par performance against Arsenal and gave away the penalty which…

 Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage will relaunch the group as an anti-lockdown party called Reform UK in an attempt to fight anti-coronavirus measures imposed by Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government. The new party will back a policy of focused protection from the coronavirus for only the most vulnerable, and allow the rest of the population to develop herd immunity, Farage and party Chairman Richard Tice wrote in an opinion piece in The Telegraph on Sunday. Papers seeking the name change have been submitted to the Electoral Commission, they added. The Brexit Party was set up in early 2019 by Farage,…

 A senior German government official said on Friday he was “deeply concerned” about the lack of progress in trade talks between the European Union and Britain given the heavy reliance of German companies on funding in the City of London. The City of London is Europe’s biggest financial centre but faces being largely cut off from the bloc when Britain’s post-Brexit transition arrangements expire on Dec. 31. Britain and the EU have entered an intensive phase in talks on a free trade deal, though EU access for financial firms in Britain is being dealt with separately by Brussels. “German corporates,…

A flurry of goals either side of halftime from Eddie Nketiah, Joe Willock and Nicolas Pepe gave Arsenal a comfortable 3-0 Europa League win over Irish side Dundalk on Thursday that puts them top of their group after two games. The 2019 League of Ireland champions defended bravely, but their resolve was broken in the 42nd minute as goalkeeper Gary Rogers failed to get enough on the ball when punching away a corner and Nketiah fired home from close range. Willock added a second before the break, snapping up the rebound from a blocked shot by Pepe and slamming the…

Total TOTF.PA trimmed its 2020 investment target on Friday after a sharp drop in third-quarter net profit, though the French oil and gas producer maintained its dividend. The company cut its investment target to $13 billion from $14 billion and said it was keeping a lid on operating costs too, even as it strives to grow in renewable energy and electricity markets. Energy companies were hit hard by COVID-19 lockdowns and the related collapse in fuel demand. The price of Brent crude has largely stayed above $40 a barrel since June, though Total on Friday said the market remained uncertain. France entered…

Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has said the main reason clubs on the continent are keen to establish a new European Super League is because they cannot compete financially with their rivals in the Premier League. Manchester United and Liverpool are reported to be in talks over the creation of a new $6 billion (4.6 billion pounds) breakaway tournament that would feature up to 18 clubs from Europe’s top five leagues. The founding members are aiming to get the tournament underway in 2022 and Josep Maria Bartomeu, who resigned as Barcelona president on Tuesday, has said the La Liga club…
