Month: July 2024

Thursday’s front pages report on election day! The papers declare their support for their political parties. In the latest blow to the Conservative Party, the Sun has backed Labour. 

The pressure growing on US President Joe Biden to step aside also finds space on a few front pages ahead of a Friday interview and rally that the Biden team will help settle the nerves of donors and voters. The concerns over Biden’s fitness for office come following a disastrous TV debate. 

The back pages lead on the England football team ahead of Saturday’s Euros Quarter-finals against Switzerland.

Just one day until the election, the front pages continue to be dominated by domestic politics.

Wednesday’s newspapers report on the late intervention in the election campaign by former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. The right-leaning newspapers that traditionally back the Conservative Party have welcomed the intervention of Boris Johnson – believing he can help stop the Tories from being completely wiped out. 

The left-leaning newspapers are fully behind Labour’s final push, reporting that the 14 years of economic austerity and Tory failures are almost over.

Away from the election, there’s room on the front pages for pictures of Andy Murray after news came he had pulled out of his last-ever Wimbledon Singles. The back pages continue their Wimbledon coverage, and there’s room to report on the latest from the Euros.
