The “gangland coward” who shot Olivia Pratt-Korbel dead is likely to die behind bars after learning he must spend at least 42 years in jail, the Daily Express writes.
It adds that “vile” Thomas Cashman skulked in a cell and refused to attend court on Monday to be handed a life sentence.
The paper is one of several featuring an image of former Chancellor Nigel Lawson, who has died at the aged of 91. Lawson presided over the economic boom of the 1980s that came to define Margaret Thatcher’s government.
