We answer questions from around the world about tariffs and what they mean for everyone.

We answer questions from around the world about tariffs and what they mean for everyone.

A "miracle" baby girl has become the first child in the UK to be born to a mother using a donated womb. The baby's mum, Grace Davidson, 36, was born without a functioning uterus, and received her sister's womb in 2023 – in what was then the UK's only successful womb transplant. We speak to other mothers who have overcome huge challenges to give birth.
