BBC News says the editor of the Mail on Sunday has declined an invitation to meet with the Speaker of the House of Commons over a controversial article about Labour’s deputy leader Angela Raynor.

Daily Mirror says Angela Rayner today spoke out over “disgusting” claims she uncrosses her legs to distract Boris Johnson – from Tory MPs who think “I must be thick”.

The Guardian says cabinet ministers have been ordered to come up with new “non-fiscal” ways to combat the cost of living.

Sky News says the Speaker of the House of Commons has summoned the editor of a national newspaper for a meeting after an article about Angela Rayner.

Daily Mirror says Sue Gray’s report into lockdown-breaking parties in Downing Street is so damaging that it could leave Boris Johnson with no choice but to resign, senior officials are said to believe.

The Independent says Boris Johnson will be forced to resign once the “damning” findings of Sue Gray’s review of lockdown-breaching parties in Whitehall are revealed, according to a report.

The Guardian says the Labour party has vowed to abolish the “non-dom” tax loophole used by the chancellor Rishi Sunak’s wife to save paying up to £20m in UK tax.

The Independent says claims that Conservative MPs have accused Angela Rayner of deliberately distracting Boris Johnson by crossing and uncrossing her legs in the Commons are “ludicrous”, the party chair says.

The Guardian says Angela Rayner has hit out at “sexism and misogyny” in politics, as a storm of criticism erupted after a vile report from the Mail on Sunday.

Sky News says Angela Rayner has condemned a “sexist” and “misogynistic” Mail on Sunday article which claimed Tory MPs have accused her of a ‘Basic Instinct’ ploy to distract Boris Johnson.
