'Starmer panic'
A round-up of the headlines from the UK front pages
Keir Starmer lowered the voting age in a panic after a "surge" in popularity for Reform, says The Telegraph. But Labour will get a "nasty surprise", Nigel Farage tells the Daily Express, claiming there's been a surge in young voter support for his party. The i Paper says both Reform and Jeremy Corbyn will "benefit" from the change.
Police will use facial recognition cameras at Notting Hill Carnival this year, says the Daily Mail, in an "unprecedented crackdown on violence". For a "second time", Labour veteran "Diane Abbott has been suspended", says The Guardian, after the MP doubled down on her past remarks on racism. John Torode's "race slur" was a line from Kanye West's hit "Gold Digger", claims The Sun.
