Month: August 2024

There are various leads on the Sunday front pages, with the tribute to Bebe King being one of the most dominant for the tabloids. Most papers feature some UK riot-related story on their front splash. 

Ongoing coverage of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and showbiz stories are also featured on the front splashes. There’s a little domestic politics news as well though not the focus of the papers.

Friday’s front pages have a few different stories as their leads. One of the most popular is the continued coverage of the recent riots and unrest across parts of England and Northern Ireland after the Southport mass stabbings. Whilst there are hopes the unrest has come to an end, police are still preparing for this weekend. 

Elsewhere, a 19-year-old has been arrested for an alleged terrorist plot at a Taylor Swift concert. The three Swift concerts in Austria have since been cancelled and the suspect has admitted plans of a machete and explosives attack as well as plans to drive his car into the crowds.
