A significant fire broke out in a flat on Seven Sisters Road, Finsbury Park, on Bonfire Night, prompting the attendance of ten fire engines and 70 firefighters. One man jumped from a second floor and was hospitalised with minor injuries. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Many of Tuesday’s newspapers lead with the death of Sven-Goran Eriksson who died at the age of 76 following a terminal cancer diagnosis. Eriksson, the first foreign manager of the England football team is pictured on both the front and back pages. Many of the papers quote a recent documentary on his life, in which he told the audience: “Don’t be sorry, smile.” 

Beyond the tributes, the headlines on the front page are fairly varied but are centred around domestic news, with politics being the most popular this morning.

Sunday’s front pages reflect a variety of ongoing domestic topics with several looking ahead at Tuesday’s speech by the prime minister. Sir Keir Starmer is set to say Britain will have to endure rising fuel payments and stricter economic measures in the coming months.

Pictures of Hannah Lynch – the 18-year-old daughter of British billionaire Mike Lynch, who died in the luxury yacht accident, make several of the broadsheet front pages. The tabloids feature snaps of recently sacked BBC presenter Jermaine Jenas and other showbiz stories.
