The Times focuses on waiting times in A&E, stating delays have reached the longest levels since 2019.

The Daily Express turns its attention to care homes, which it says are treating the elderly and frail “appallingly” in “substandard” accommodation.

The Guardian focuses on carers being taken to court to force them to repay huge sums after a buildup of erroneous benefits payments.

The Sun gives over its front page to an investigation into Turkish doctors targeting UK citizens for potentially “deadly” cosmetic surgeries.

The Daily Mirror also focuses on cosmetic surgery but says a new Turkish package includes a nose job and a trip to the vet for your pet.

The Daily Mail shifts the focus to politics, with the latest headaches for Labour regarding Angela Rayner’s tax affairs.

The Financial Times looks abroad, concentrating on President Joe Biden’s warning to China about its operations in the South China Sea.

The i runs with a piece on new homeowners being required to sign nondisclosure agreements before they can view bill breakdowns for estate payments.

The Metro focuses on the penal system, reporting that hundreds of criminals are not completing their required hours of community service.

And the Daily Star reveals the truth on Yorkshire terrier Prince, who became a national TV hit in 1979 when he supposedly barked his order of “sausages.”
