Supermarkets are "taking the mickey " out of shoppers over their olive oil prices. That’s according to Walter Zanre, the boss of olive oil producer Filippo Berio. He claims supermarkets are yet to bring down prices for customers, despite the cost of olive oil falling in recent months. The British Retail Consortium disagrees with Zanre, saying that retailers work hard to pass on cost savings to customers wherever possible. So today we want to know – which supermarket goods are you finding expensive? How do you feel about the use of facial recognition software? We’re continuing our coverage of the manifestos of all six main political parties contesting the upcoming Senedd election. Yesterday the Welsh Liberal Democrats launched their manifesto. And one commitment was to work with Police and Crime Commissioners to halt the use of facial recognition surveillance by police forces in Wales. Facial Recognition is a technology capable of comparing a human face from a digital image against a database of faces. And what is the quirkiest thing you’ve witnessed at a funeral? Sandra Burnell, from Newport, was buried with her favourite flavour Pot Noodle. And 72 pots of the beef and tomato variety were handed out to mourners at the service.
