‘Crossbow killer guilty of triple murder and rape’ & ‘Huge boost to defence spending’ – Paper Talk UK

News Briefing

There are two main stories dominating Friday’s front pages this morning, with the ongoing European plans to support Ukraine after the US paused military aid and the sentencing of an ex-soldier who raped and murdered his ex-girlfriend, and killed her mother and sister. 

A meeting of EU leaders in Brussels yesterday ended in an agreed increase in defence spending. Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, was also in attendance and expressed his gratitude, noting that Europe has stuck with Ukraine throughout it all. 

Kyle Clifford, 26, has been convicted of raping his ex-girlfriend before brutally murdering her, her sister, and their mother. He used a crossbow to kill Louise Hunt and her sister, Hannah, while their mother, Carol, was fatally attacked with a knife.

A handful of papers feature some standalone publications – including a report that NHS staff may have illegally accessed information about the murders of the three victims of the Nottingham killer, Valdo Calocane.

Rachel Reeves also makes the front splashes, as does the ongoing backlash to the US tariffs on Canadian, Mexican and Chinese imports. 

The back pages lead with Man United’s 1-1 draw in last night’s Europa League.
