Guardian Unlimited today

Personal finances are under the spotlight today. Stung by criticisms of the government's flagship tax credits system, the Treasury minister, Dawn Primarolo, will have to explain to MPs why administrative failures have caused many of the most vulnerable families to live on only £56 a week plus child benefit.

On the other end of the socio-economic scale, meanwhile, the Queen is publishing her accounts. Last year the Royal family cost every Briton 61p - around the price of two pints of milk. Questions are bound to be asked about whether the money could be better spent, on the poor perhaps.

On Guardian Unlimited Sport, there is confirmation that Jonny Wilkinson will be playing against the All Blacks on Saturday - though at inside centre, not fly-half - and live coverage from Wimbledon, including Greg Rusedski's second round match.
