The Independent - Coastguard failings in Channel migrant death

Summary of the front page

The Independent says an overworked coastguard team worked up to 20 hours a day ahead of a tragedy that killed 27 people. A source tells the paper that the team “made mistakes” during the mass drowning of migrants.  

The paper’s front page features an image of Lord Lebedev distributing food to those in need as the paper notes £500,000 had been donated to the paper’s campaign to raise money for those affected by the cost of living crisis.
