The Observer – Tories slam bonkers plot to topple Sunak as chaos mount

The Observer’s lead story reports that some in the Conservative Party are planning to oust Rishi Sunak as its leader.

It cites senior Tories who the paper says have rallied around the prime minister. Former cabinet ministers Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg and David Davis have publicly denounced the idea as “mad” and “bonkers”.

In a separate story, the paper reports that a leading psychologist has accused Meta of “turning a blind eye” to Instagram posts that adversely affect young women and girls.
