‘Blood on their hands’ report lays bare failings that left Calocane free to kill – Paper Talk 

News Briefing

Tuesday’s front pages cover various domestic and international political stories as tensions across the Middle East and Europe continue to escalate. Many of the newspapers feature images of British diver Tom Daley – who announced his retirement just weeks after securing a silver medal at the Paris Olympics. 

Elsewhere, many of the papers react to the report on the failings in the treatment of the Nottingham attacker, Valdo Calocane. The papers pick up on comments that a doctor had warned years earlier that Calocane could end up killing someone.

‘No more rioting in the name of our little girl’ & ‘Olympics end in style’ – Paper Talk 

News Briefing

Monday’s front pages cover various stories. Most of the papers feature striking images from last night’s Paris Olympics closing ceremony as the Games ended in ‘spectacular style.’

The funeral of Alice da Silva Aguiar is also pictured on the front pages – and is the lead story for many of the tabloids. The nine-year-old was stabbed to death, along with two other little girls, at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class.

Several broadsheets continue their coverage around the riots that followed the murder of the three little girls with the worst of the violence appearing to be behind us now. The aftermath of the rioting – and what comes next – is covered by the papers, with each offering up their analysis and opinions about the future.

There’s some light domestic political coverage on the front pages though not enough to dominate this morning’s conversations.

The back pages focus on Team GB’s efforts at the Paris Olympics, as well as Premier League gossip.
