‘No more rioting in the name of our little girl’ & ‘Olympics end in style’ – Paper Talk 

News Briefing

Monday’s front pages cover various stories. Most of the papers feature striking images from last night’s Paris Olympics closing ceremony as the Games ended in ‘spectacular style.’

The funeral of Alice da Silva Aguiar is also pictured on the front pages – and is the lead story for many of the tabloids. The nine-year-old was stabbed to death, along with two other little girls, at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class.

Several broadsheets continue their coverage around the riots that followed the murder of the three little girls with the worst of the violence appearing to be behind us now. The aftermath of the rioting – and what comes next – is covered by the papers, with each offering up their analysis and opinions about the future.

There’s some light domestic political coverage on the front pages though not enough to dominate this morning’s conversations.

The back pages focus on Team GB’s efforts at the Paris Olympics, as well as Premier League gossip.
