‘Man kicked to death by boy’ & ‘Horror in the Channel’ – Paper Talk

By

Wednesday’s newspapers lead with various headlines reflecting a variety of domestic stories. The tabloids lend more coverage to an elderly man who was kicked to death by a 14-year-old boy who has since been arrested. The left-leaning broadsheets lead with the ‘horror’ in the Channel – as at least 12 migrants died after the sinking of an overcrowded boat. Amongst the dead include children and a pregnant woman.

A handful of the papers leave some space on their front pages to report on the reaction following the UK’s decision to ban the sale of some arms to Israel over concerns they could be used in war crimes. The papers in particular look at the reaction from the US, as the move is the first significant distancing of the UK from US policy regarding Israel and the war in Gaza.

The back pages feature various headlines covering the Premier League, the latest from English cricket and news Phil Foden, Ollie Watkins and Cole Palmer have pulled out of the upcoming England camp.
