The Sun on Sunday - I’m going to smash it on tour

Summary of the front page

The Sun on Sunday reports on the death of S Club 7 singer Paul Cattermole. The paper reports that the singer was upbeat about the upcoming reunion tour to mark the 25th anniversary of the band a day before his death. 

The paper also reports that the high-security Frankland jail in County Durham is installing phones in the cells of inmates. The phones are being fitted to avoid queuing in communal areas. The Prison Service says there are strict time limits, risk assessments and monitoring of phone calls. But the Sun wants the scheme scrapped, calling it a “complete waste of taxpayer money.”
