Sunday Papers

WTX News brings you a summary of the UK’s national Sunday newspapers. We gather the front pages and summarise the top stories to give you a clear and simple overview of the stories you need to know, from a variety of sources. 

Sunday’s front pages are dominated by domestic news, with UK politics and ongoing coverage of the Olympics leading the papers. 

Olympic divers Yasmin Harper and Scarlett Mew Jensen are pictured on most of the front pages. The pair won Team GB’s first medal with a bronze in the women’s synchronised 3m springboard – becoming the first British woman in 64 years to win an Olympic diving medal.

Sunday’s newspaper front pages have a range of leads – with domestic politics being the most popular. Several papers leave space to report on the ongoing chaos caused by the global IT crash as travellers remain stranded and reports suggest it could take weeks for the chaos to calm. 

Elsewhere, showbiz news features on a handful of tabloid front pages and Premier League gossip leads the back pages.

Sunday’s front pages are dominated by two stories: Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s first full day in office and England beating Switzerland on penalties to book their spot in the Euros semi-final. 

Starmer’s first cabinet meeting, Rwanda plans and the UK seeking closer ties to the EU are on the front pages, with the left and right-leaning newspapers having very different views on Starmer’s plans.

Sunday’s front pages have a range of stories as their leads – almost all of them being domestic topics. A couple of the papers feature images from the Cannes Film Festival and other celebrity news. 

Football is also featured on the front and back pages. Several papers report on the WSL final as Emma Hayes’s Chelsea won the title again – on goal difference. Today’s Premier League final is also featured on the papers as it goes to the wire. 

The paper’s coverage of today’s Premier League final notes the season goes to the wire. Man City will be hunting for their latest PL title, whilst Arsenal are hoping to win the title again after two decades.

The Sunday newspaper front pages mostly focus on the England election results as more trickled out on Saturday – including the shock Labour win in the West Midlands mayor and Sadiq Khan winning a third term as London mayor. 

Many of the right-leaning newspapers suggest the results highlight the dire state the Conservative Party is in right now, and contend with a possible Tory wipeout at the upcoming general election. 

A couple of tabloids lead on royal news, including disgraced Prince Andrew and the results of a popularity poll regarding King Charles. 

Many of the back pages lead on Manchester City’s and Arsenal’s latest Premier League wins. Liverpool are in action on Sunday and must win if they have any hopes of winning the title. 

Sunday’s papers feature various news topics, with most papers already going to print before Iran attacked Israel. Elsewhere, many of the papers feature images from the Australian stabbing attack at a shopping mall which left 6 people – five women and a man – dead and many injured – including a baby. Joel Cauchi, 40, was shot dead by a lone police officer who bravely approached the man. His attack is not thought to be terror-related and it’s been reported that he was known to police.
