‘Diluted rights’

A round-up of the headlines from the UK front pages

Labour has “caved to pressure from businesses to soften its workers’ rights legislation”, says the Financial Times. After the government dropped unfair dismissal safeguards for new employees on the first day of a new job, The Telegraph said it was the “second manifesto breach in as many days”.

Peers’ amendments opposing the original assisted dying bill are “stealing precious time and choice”, says the Daily Express, while The Mirror reports on a potential fresh lead in the Jill Dando murder. Investigators are probing “a newly unearthed picture” of what the tabloid claims is “a Serbian assassin”.
