The UK government is set to announce significant welfare reforms today, aiming to reduce welfare spending by approximately £5 billion annually. These measures are part of an effort to address rising welfare costs, which are projected to surpass £100 billion by 2030.

Almost all the UK newspapers lead on the story, focusing on different angles from political turmoil within the party, to potentially pushing the poor into poverty.

The ban was triggered by the death of a 14-year-old boy, who was stabbed by a fellow pupil at his school in Tirana and shared on social media.

The opposition are suggesting this is politically motivated and labelling it a form of censorship.
