Barack Obama Elected 44th U.S. President

As was widely anticipated, Democrat Barack Obama was last night elected the 44th President of the United States of America.

Obama will be ready for the eyes of the world watching his every move as he tackles crucial issues from war in Iraq to climate change.

Just to add further pressure to Obama, we at Tiesplanet.com are going to be keeping a keen watch on the ties he wears. We will be making frequent reviews of his choice of neckwear from here-on-in.

So keep logging in to see what styles and colours of tie Barack chooses to wear.

In the meantime, why not show your love for the USA, by buying a luxury tie featuring the stars and stripes?

BBC Right To Suspend Ross?

We have all seen the mass coverage of the fall-out from Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand's prank calls to Fawlty Towers actor Andrew Sachs' answerphone last week. The BBC ultimately decided to suspend Ross for 12 weeks without pay for his role in the calls, which were aired on Brand's BBC Radio 2 show.

As one of Britain's most famous tie wearer's we are interested to see if you think Ross has been treated harshly. Perhaps you think the punishment is too lenient and the furore is all a storm in a teacup? Do you think the chat show host should have been sacked?

Please give your opinion by voting on our poll and discussing the scandal in the comments box below...
