Meanwhile, The Guardian runs with a story on one of the Conservative Party’s biggest donors being under investigation over his “tax affairs”.

The Independent leads with the leader of the Reclaim Party Laurence Fox and GB News host Dan Wootton, who have both been taken off air after Fox made  a “sexist rant” towards a journalist.
