The economy is among the topics covered by the nation’s Monday papers.

The Times reports a Labour cabinet minister has called the state of Britain’s economy “disappointing”, as the Daily Mail and Daily Express lead with business chiefs warning the UK is heading towards a recession.

Meanwhile, The Telegraph says Britain’s new ambassador to the US, Lord Mandelson, is willing to work with Nigel Farage in an effort to win over the Trump administration.

More than £100 million was spent last year on failed efforts to block support for children and young people with special education needs, according to The Guardian.

The Daily Mirror reports a three-year-old British boy is hoping for a life-saving double organ transplant for Christmas.

The Sun leads with heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury assuring fans it is “not over” following his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia.

And the Daily Star says a new poll has revealed cleanliness will take a back seat for millions of Britons over the festive period.
