Browsing: Today’s newspapers summarised

Most of Friday’s front pages lead with the new migrant agreement between France and the UK. The deal will see a “one in, one out” process. Many of the right-leaning papers pick up on French President Emmanuel Macron’s comments that Brexit was in part to blame for Britain’s spiralling illegal immigration crisis.

The papers feature images of Starmer and Macron, and images of yesterday’s illegal boat crossings.

A few papers find space to report on the BBC’s sacking of presenter Greg Wallace. The former Masterchef host faced allegations of sexual assault, bullying and inappropriate behaviour. He denies the allegations.

Thursday’s newspapers have a real mix of headlines this morning! Several newspapers led with Christian Horner’s removal as Red Bull’s F1 team principal after he faced accusations of inappropriate behaviour at work.

There is coverage of the Lionesses’ thrashing of the Dutch in last night’s Euro 2025, with the newspapers praising the performance of the entire team.

Coverage of Emmanuel Macron’s visit to the UK continues to find space on the front pages, with the press picking apart a plan to return migrants who have crossed the channel in small boats.

A handful of other standalone stories make up the rest of the front page coverage, with a doctor’s strike on the horizon and updates on the Southport killings.

Tuesday’s newspapers offer a variety of stories with no one story dominating all the front pages. A handful of papers cover French President Emmanuel Macron’s state visit to Britain, marking the first EU leader’s state visit since Brexit. There’s a handful of other UK political stories on the front pages.

A few other papers focus on Jeffrey Epstein and the FBI confirming that there was no Epstein client list, and their investigation into Prince Andrew’s links to Epstein being closed.

The front pages have further coverage of the Texas flooding as the death toll hits more than 100, and many remain missing, and new weather warnings are issued. More rain is expected, set to make rescue operations even more difficult.

Monday’s headlines won’t be an easy read for No 10 as the newspapers suggest the PM is facing a fresh revolt. One newspaper suggests the Labour Party is willing to explore a wealth tax, but it appears more like an attempt to alarm its readers than a truth with any legs.

The prime minister’s plans to revive the NHS may face some early teething problems, as NHS doctors could strike this summer if they don’t receive a pay rise.

Monday marks the 20th anniversary of the July 7 terror attacks across London, and several of the tabloids lead with tributes to the victims and speak to survivors.

Images from Wimbledon feature on the front pages, as do images from the tragedy in Texas.

Starmer guts welfare reform to avert defeat in Commons | Wednesday’s newspapers

The UK heatwave and Wimbledon find space on the front pages as tennis stars sizzled in the record-breaking temperatures.

The sports papers look ahead to this summer’s Women’s Euros as the Lionesses prepare to defend their crown.

Tuesday’s front pages are dominated by the proposed welfare bill that MPs will vote on this Tuesday. It’s set to be a tough day for the prime minister as Labour MPs are still considering rebelling over the bill, despite the PM making huge concessions and watering down his controversial plans to trim the ballooning benefits cost.

Several papers continue their coverage of the Glastonbury row after police announced they would open an inquiry into Bob Vylan and Kneecap performances, with punk duo Bob Vylan chanting “death to IDF” and Kneecap calling for a riot. There are further calls for the BBC boss to be punished for streaming the controversial Bob Vylan set despite the chants.

There are a handful of standalone stories, including reports that British doctors and nurses will be prioritised as part of a 10-year plan to curb the number of international hires. The death of Vivienne leads one of the newspapers after new details have emerged, and another paper leads with a report into the treatment of those in care homes during the pandemic.

Many of the newspapers feature images of yesterday’s Wimbledon action, including British tennis star Emma Raducanu’s win. The ongoing UK heatwave finds plenty of space on the front pages, as the country continues to sweat and more health warnings are issued.

Monday’s newspaper headlines are dominated by the controversial Glastonbury performance from punk duo Bob Vylan, who chanted “death, death to the IDF.” Several headlines criticised the BBC for not pulling the performance off live TV, whilst other headlines looked at the reaction to the chant, including the prime minister’s condemnation of the performance. 

The Friday newspaper front pages won’t be an easy read for the prime minister this morning, as they react to his U-turn on his highly controversial welfare cuts.

Many of the papers had gone to print before the watered-down bill was confirmed. They acknowledge that the prime minister offered the more than 120 Labour rebels ‘concessions’ but did not know the details.

Beyond welfare cuts, the rest of the papers are made up of a mix of different headlines from ongoing coverage of the US bombing of Iran to the UK and France agreeing on a migrant returns deal.

Thursday’s newspaper front pages continue their coverage of the Labour MP rebellion as the prime minister appears to be backing down, at least partially, over the highly controversial Bill.

There are several stories focused on Donald Trump dominating the UK front pages with coverage of the Nato summit. The US president is jubilant over the news that Nato members have agreed to spend 5% of GDP on defence and security. He’s also basking in newfound glory: being labelled ‘daddy’ by the NATO chief Mark Rutte. The US government and media are lapping it up. 

A handful of ongoing stories dominate the UK newspaper front pages this morning, with the news that the prime minister is set to press ahead with his contentious welfare cuts, despite a growing rebellion from Labour MPs.

Many of the papers lead on the “landmark deal” which will see the UK buy 12 new nuclear-carrying jets from the United States. Several papers pick up on the prime minister’s comments that the UK must be prepared for war, whilst other papers note the purchase of planes carrying nuclear bombs is the biggest expansion of the deterrent since the Cold War.

A handful of papers report on Donald Trump’s wild outburst on TV whilst discussing the Israel-Iran ceasefire breaking down yesterday. Since the outburst, the fragile ceasefire appears to be holding.

Friday’s newspaper front pages report on today’s assisted dying vote in the House of Commons. The vote will take place this afternoon after one more debate in the Commons. If passed, it will head to the House of Lords for scrutiny. Most of the papers are in support of the bill. 

Wednesday’s UK newspaper front pages are dominated by the Middle East crisis, with Donald Trump’s hints that US troops could soon join Israel in the war on Iran leading the way. Many papers pick up on the US president’s call for Iran to ‘surrender’ and his comments that they won’t kill Iran’s leader, for now. 

Elsewhere, there’s some front-page coverage of the House of Commons vote on decriminalising abortion in England and Wales, the delay of the HS2 train project and, for the tabloids, continued coverage of the grooming gangs scandal. 

Tuesday’s newspaper front pages are dominated by the newly released audit led by Baroness Louise Casey into grooming gangs. The papers react to the details within the report especially focusing on the fact that authorities “shied away from the ethnicity” of the perpetrators over fears of raising racial tensions. 

The front pages leave space to report on the G7 summit, including the UK and US signing a trade deal and Donald Trump leaving the G7 early as the Middle East crisis escalates and commentators speculate if the US military is about to enter the crisis. 

Monday’s front pages are dominated by several stories – all political. The papers report on the announcement that an inquiry into grooming gangs will be launched. It comes after the prime minister had originally ruled out an inquiry. The papers call for him to apologise. Elsewhere, the G7 summit in Canada and the cross-border strikes between Israel and Iran dominate the headlines – in print and online.

Almost all of Friday’s newspaper front pages report on the tragic Air India plane crash in which 241 passengers and crew were on board. Only one person survived – a British man sat in seat 11A. The papers dub it the “miracle of seat 11A.”

Thursday’s newspaper front pages are dominated by reactions to the spending review. It won’t come as much of a surprise how the papers have reacted – with the left-leaning press cheering on the injection of cash, bringing an end to the Conservative austerity and framing the review as a “renewal of Britain.” The right-leaning press tells their readers to “brace for tax pain” calling Rachel Reeves’s review “fantasy spending.” 

Most of Wednesday’s newspaper front pages lead with today’s Spending Review, set to be released this afternoon. The papers lead with the reports already out in press including almost £40 billion reportedly set aside for housing and a massive £86 billion package for science and tech. 

Beyond the spending review, there’s some coverage of the mass school shooting in Austria – with at least 10 dead and many injured. There’s some coverage of Gaza as Greta Thunberg speaks out about being detained and deported by Israel and the UK has issued sanctions against two far-right Israeli ministers for their comments over Gaza. 

Tuesday’s newspapers lead with the U-turn on the winter fuel payments cut. Chancellor Rachel Reeves announced that she would restore the payment to more than three-quarters of pensioners who initially lost out after the government cut the payment last year. The move was widely condemned across the political spectrum, and the reversal has been widely welcomed – regardless of the paper’s political leanings. 

Monday’s newspaper headlines are dominated by a few stories: Government policy, in particular, the upcoming Spending Review, which is set to be released on Wednesday and the clashes between protests and the National Guard in the USA. 

A handful of front pages lead with the NHS’s call for more blood donors, whilst the back pages report on football transfer gossip ahead of Tuesday’s deadline, Portugal winning the Nations League and Spain’s Alcaraz winning the French Open.

This morning’s front pages are dominated by two key narratives: the Trump-Musk feud – a high‑profile clash between Trump and Musk that’s made international headlines – and the dramatic departure of Zia Yusuf from Reform UK — spotlighting deep divisions ahead of future elections. Meanwhile, heavyweight political discourse continues with calls to reform the European Convention on Human Rights, and diplomatic tensions simmer as Moscow accuses the UK of aiding drone strikes with Ukraine.

Thursday’s newspaper headlines report on the winter fuel U-turn announced by the chancellor yesterday – widely welcomed by the newspapers.

Wednesday’s UK newspaper front pages offer a variety of headlines with no one story dominating the papers. A handful touch on the migrant channel crossings, in particular Labour’s theory that crossings have risen due to the good weather. But there is little unity across the papers and instead standalone reports ranging from war and conflict to the latest showbiz news. 

AI is dominating the UK newspaper front pages this morning after the prime minister announced his defence strategy yesterday. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has laid out plans to grow the British Army as he vows to put the country on a war footing and be prepared for Russian threats. 

Monday’s front pages are dominated by two stories: the upcoming announcement of the Strategic Defence Review and the illegal crossings of the English Channel.

Several newspapers report that results from a new trial suggest that exercise is “better than drugs” in stopping cancer from returning.

Elsewhere, the rest of the front pages are made up of standalone reports including everything from Liz Truss flogging Whiskey to reports that Britain is set for a sunny June.

Wednesday’s headlines highlight Britain’s media divide: on the left, you’ll see reports of the government’s new approach to Israel, highlighting the strong condemnation of Israel used by the government.

Whilst the right-leaning press have largely left the story off the front splashes altogether and instead have chosen to focus on domestic political stories.

This could have something to do with the Israeli event, the night before, that Farage and Kemi attended and their respective media friends attended.
