Monday’s front pages have a variety of domestic and international leads with the broadsheets slightly more focused on the latest happenings on the global stage. The bodies of six Israeli hostages have been found in Gaza, the latest from the Ukraine-Russia War and the German far-right’s election victory in the east are among the popular headlines on the front splash. 

A little closer to home, the front pages report on the latest from Downing Street including Labour axing winter fuel payments and the shake-up of the Ofcom rating system following the death of a head teacher last year.

Oasis, Venice Film Festival and Man Utd’s humiliating loss to Liverpool are all pictured on the front pages. The weekend’s Premier League action dominates the back pages.

Friday’s leads report on the latest from Downing Street with many papers assessing what the government’s plans to ban outdoor smoking in pubs will do to trading. Pub landlords have not welcomed the news and the traditional right-leaning publications dramatically claim it’s ‘the end of British pubs!’

The plans have put the Labour government on a collision course with the hospitality industry – which is already struggling. But the news has been welcomed by health experts. 

Working hours, the NHS and health studies also make Friday’s front pages along with a dose of showbiz and royal gossip. 

The back pages report on the latest Premier League gossip, the England National football team and Joe Root’s 33rd Test Century for England.
