'Bank hottest day Monday' and 'Sturgeon's ex-husband used SNP cash'
BBC
The Scottish edition of the Times suggests that Peter Murrell, the former chief executive of the SNP and estranged husband of the former First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, is "facing years in jail" for embezzling more than £400,000 from the party. The Guardian says among the items he bought were a luxury motor home, boutique cosmetics and a Lalique Feuilles salt and pepper set worth £2618. The Daily Mail asks "how could Sturgeon not know?", while "Sturgeon must come clean" is the Daily Telegraph's headline, quoting the Scottish Tory leader. The Scottish Sun says she left police frustrated by refusing to answer their questions and exercising her right not to comment.
The i Paper says more than eight in 10 parents questioned by the British Board of Film Classification support the idea of applying cinema-style age-ratings to social media content. The Daily Mirror says nearly three quarters would be more likely to let their children use social media if there were age ratings. The Telegraph says charities, including the NSPCC, are backing the idea.
The suggestion comes as the Times says pressure is growing on the prime minister to ban social media for under-16s as leading doctors have warned it's "the new smoking." Alongside its coverage, the paper highlights how the government has embraced social media, citing an interview between Sir Keir Starmer and a Traitors contestant inviting a pair of street-cleaning twins to Number Ten and the Only Way Is Essex star Gemma Collins promoting the government's education policy.
The Daily Mail says thousands of A-level pupils have had their physics exams plunged into chaos after a spate of online leaks linked to Pakistan. The paper says students who sat the Cambridge International paper last week will now be assigned a mark based on their performance in other modules. The exam board tells the paper it is working closely with the relevant law enforcement authorities.
And, "Kew, what a scorcher," says the Metro, as it highlights yesterday's record high temperature of 34.8C at Kew Gardens in London. It was a "bank brollyday", according to the Daily Express, which pictures beach-goers seeking shelter under their parasols. For the Star and the Daily Mirror, it was a "record baker".
