Day: 28 May 2024

Many of Tuesday’s front pages focus on Rishi Sunak’s pledge to save older people from paying tax on their state pension. The left-leaning newspapers lead on Labour’s Sir Keir Starmer as both the PM and the leader of the opposition have been on the campaign trail since the announcement of a snap general election – to be held on 4 July. 

Elsewhere, several papers feature images from the Israeli airstrike on the Rafah, which has drawn international condemnation as civilians sheltering have been hit. 

The back pages lead on the latest Premier League news – including the latest gossip about new managers. Chelsea are closing in on their new boss and Erik ten Hag is still reportedly in the dark over his future.
