Month: September 2024

Huw Edwards sentencing dominates Tuesday’s newspapers. The front pages react to the former BBC presenter being handed a suspended sentence, meaning he won’t spend a minute in jail. Edwards was given a six-month prison sentence suspended for two years after he admitted charges of making indecent images of children.

Unsurprisingly, the papers react with anger as more details of his crimes emerge. Some of the papers ponder whether Edwards was given a lenient sentence due to his fame.

Elsewhere, there’s a dash of US political news on several papers as America continues to deal with the aftermath of a second assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump.

Victoria Starmer, the prime minister’s wife, is splashed on several front pages amid the ongoing backlash over “wardrobe-gate”. The Prime Minister and his wife, Victoria, are embroiled in a row after he allegedly broke rules by failing to declare donations on time.
