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.

As expected, Wednesday’s front pages are heavily dominated by the latest developments from the general election campaign trail. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer have been on the road trying to shore up support ahead of the 4 July snap election. 

The right-leaning newspapers bulk up support for Sunak’s national service plans and take aim at ‘mickey-mouse’ degrees, saying the PM will ban such degrees. 

The left-leaning newspapers report on the probe against Angela Rayner being dropped by police, they rip apart the prime ministers ‘triple lock’ policy, calling it a gimmick, and pick up on Labour’s promise to clear NHS waiting lists within 5 years. 

The back pages report on the latest from the Premier League – the season may be over, but hiring continues.
