As Donald Trump returns to the White House for a handover chat with Joe Biden, the president-elect learns that his Republican Party will fully control Congress - and makes a series of eye-catching nominations for top jobs.

We have the latest. And as a nation frets over the great taramasalata shortage - Jay Rayner helps us make a do-it-yourself dip.
