A cover picture of Sir Keir Starmer embracing Ursula von der Leyen splashes the front of the Observer, leading on the forthcoming UK-EU summit. Starmer’s spokesperson has said it will lead to a new deal with the bloc.
Also leading on the EU summit, the Telegraph reports Sir Keir Starmer has promised that plans to reset the UK’s relationship with the EU will be “good for our borders”. Conservatives who spoke the paper say this will “open the floodgates” to tens of thousands of people. An image of Princess Eugene, who has given an interview about her scoliosis condition, illustrates the front.
The Mail on Sunday reports Britain could be forced to pay “hundreds of millions” to the EU as part of the deal, set to be inked on Monday. Calling it a “surrender summit”, the deal will also permit EU trawlers to fish in British waters, the paper says.
“Betray Britain at your peril” booms the headline of the Sunday Express. Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says the prime minister has been warned he will “face the wrath” of voters if he “surrenders” to the EU at the meeting. He is expected to back a scheme to allow young Europeans to live and work in the UK.
Scott Mitchell tells the Sunday Mirror he still wakes up in “panic” after his wife and EastEnders star Dame Barbara Windsor died from Alzheimer’s in 2020.
Sunday People splashes with a choir made up of victims of the Post Office scandal telling the paper they want to sing for the King, “in their quest for justice”.
The government will deploy a “home guard” to protect against attacks to power plants and airports, the Sunday Times reads. Elsewhere a photo of Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze celebrating his team’s victory, and the story of three Iranian migrants charged with targeting UK-based journalists make the front page.
And finally the Daily Star issues a dire warning, complete with seagulls clad in boxing gloves, that rising temperatures mean Britons can expect to be “divebombed” by the “beserk birds”. The paper claims attacks are set to rise for a fifth year.
