Thursday’s front pages focus on the defection of MP Natalie Elphickle from Conservatives to Labour – with neither the left-leaning or right-leaning newspapers particularly happy about the situation.
For the left-leaning newspapers, controversial figure Natalie Elphickle has ‘split the Labour Party’ with several of the papers unhappy that Sir Keir welcomed her into the party. Natalie Elphickle is known for far-right views and had previously defended her convicted sex offender former husband. For the right-leaning newspapers, her defection is a betrayal, especially given the timing, with a general election around the corner.
Several of Thursday’s newspapers carry photos of King Charles and Prince Harry who were both at London events yesterday in the sunshine. Harry is back in the UK for a three-day charity event.
Elsewhere, away from the main leads, the UK front pages cover a variety of domestic news.
The back pages cover last night’s Champions League final as Real Madrid beat Bayern Munich 2-1 (4-3 agg), and the controversial late equaliser that was ruled out for Bayern. Real Madrid will meet Borussia Dortmund in London for the final.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has said there have been at least 44 cholera cases in Kenya’s Tana River county, as flooding raises the risk of the spread of water-borne diseases.
