Friday’s front pages report on the Bank of England’s bleak forecast for the UK economy sparked widespread concern, with growth now expected to be just 0.75% this year.

Rachel Reeves is under fire with some of the papers speculating on her future in the role of chancellor and the fears of stagflation – a combination of stagnant growth and rising inflation—are dominating the narrative.

While the interest rate cut to 4.5% offers some relief, the overall economic outlook remains challenging. The papers say the government faces tough choices including potential tax hikes or spending cuts, to stabilise the economy.

Elsewhere, there’s some showbiz news dominating tabloids, including reviews of the new BBC TV series Amandaland, an exclusive interview with the former girlfriend of Liam Payne and coverage of recent allegations made against a TV star.

The back pages are dominated by Liverpool’s 4-0 win over Spurs to book their place in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.
