A new bilateral deal announced at the end of French President Emmanuel Macron’s state visit pledges a pilot “one in, one out” returns scheme: the UK will return around 2,600 irregular Channel migrants per year to France, matched by accepting an equal number of asylum seekers with strong UK ties.

Thursday’s newspapers have a real mix of headlines this morning! Several newspapers led with Christian Horner’s removal as Red Bull’s F1 team principal after he faced accusations of inappropriate behaviour at work.

There is coverage of the Lionesses’ thrashing of the Dutch in last night’s Euro 2025, with the newspapers praising the performance of the entire team.

Coverage of Emmanuel Macron’s visit to the UK continues to find space on the front pages, with the press picking apart a plan to return migrants who have crossed the channel in small boats.

A handful of other standalone stories make up the rest of the front page coverage, with a doctor’s strike on the horizon and updates on the Southport killings.
