Tuesday’s front pages lead with a range of headlines centred around UK politics. There’s ongoing coverage of the WhatsApp group scandal after a second Labour MP was suspended for the vile messages in the chat.

Several papers feature standalone domestic stories, with little room on the front pages to cover international news.

Only two of the major UK newspapers cover the breakdown in the Gaza ceasefire on the front pages, and there’s only a sprinkle of coverage of the US steel tariffs.
