Daily Mirror – End 70 tears of nukes cover-up

The news that veterans of nuclear tests are launching a court battle to gain access to medical records to show how they were exposed to excessive radiation in the 1950s is the splash in the Daily Mirror.

Campaigners say those involved in the tests have suffered health consequences, including cancers and children born with birth defects, because of the radiation they were exposed to. One veteran, 86-year-old John Morris, tells the paper he just wants the truth. 

Elsewhere, the paper covers the King’s trip to France with a star-studded state banquet that included Mick Jagger. “Le rock and royal” the paper puns.
