‘Farewell Liam’ & ‘British weapons fired at Russia’ – Paper Talk UK
UK News
Liam Payne’s funeral and the use of British-made weapons being used by Ukraine to strike Russia lead Thursday’s newspapers.
Several tabloids lead with reports on the funeral of former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne, who died last month after he fell from his balcony in Argentina. Much of the front page coverage features images from outside the Church in Amersham, Buckinghamshire.
There is a heightened fear for the tabloids as Ukraine has fired British-made missiles into Russia for the first time. The broadsheets take a more measured tone on their front pages, as they report the British missiles struck deep inside of Russia.
